Coughing, coughing, and more coughing

Once again, I apologize for taking so long in between posts. We are all recovering from another round of yucky coughs and colds. Riley got it first and developed a nasty cough at the end of last week. We stayed in all weekend while he coughed and coughed and coughed. Our whole apartment reeks of Vicks baby rub! Then, just as he started to get a little better, Ross woke up Sunday morning with the exact same symptoms. So, now Riley is on the mend and Ross is still in the midst of the worst of it. Thankfully, neither of them is running a fever and they are both still happy and playful for the most part. Also, since they love me so very much, they shared their germs with me and I am also sick right now.

Even in the midst of coughs and cold, we are managing to spend some time each day being purely silly. I caught the boys playing Hide and Seek...toddler style.

Riley is looking for Ross. Ross believes we cannot see his feet sticking out from under the curtains...he's at that "If I can't see you, you can't see me" stage.


Riley is turning away, pretending to look somewhere else. At least....I assume he is pretending. Do you think he really doesn't know where Ross is? Keep in mind that Ross is giggling the entire time.


Ross reveals himself! Riley looks at me in shock! "Oh! He was behind the curtain! Who knew???"


Ross' smile says it all...he is so proud of himself for being such a clever hider!


This is just a random shot of Riley in his ongoing quest to make sure every single toy we have is out and on the floor at all times. Seriously, though, look how nice and straight he is standing. He is holding onto the shelves for support, but his posture is much improved as a result of using his walker. He has only been using it for a month, but his body positioning in many different circumstances has improved greatly!


So, that's a quick wrap up of what we've been up to. Not much new....just two incredibly cute kids that I love with all my heart!
