Flu
DS1 was sent home with a fever last Wednesday and finally was able to go back to daycare today. He was fever free Monday morning, so we thought he would go back Tuesday, but Monday afternoon after his nap he had a fever again, so we stayed home yesterday, too. All day yesterday he was fever free, so we went in today and I went back to work. He did not want to leave me this morning. After almost a week of Mommy and me, he did not want me to go. I just called his classroom to check and got their voice mail. It is almost lunch time, so they might not have come in from outside yet.

Advent Traditions
DS has an Advent calendar with stickers this year. I got several of them for all of the kids in the church nursery. So far DH has been the one to help him everyday. We missed yesterday, so he got to put 2 on this morning. He now likes stickers!
We are making plans to drive to Idaho to celebrate Christmas (between Christmas and New Years) this year. The boys are changing so fast, and MIL is fighting cancer, that we want to see them as often as possible. Their aunt hasn't even met DS2 yet. (Neither has an uncle, but he lives in Chicago.) We took a weekend trip to Kansas City after Thanksgiving. It went pretty well. We had my niece along, which really helped us manage things. I hope she is able to go to Idaho with us, too.

Remembers, but no grudges
I watch DS1 a bit today during my lunch break. He played "ring around the rosie" with a teacher and friend at daycare. It's nice that he doesn't hold a grudge, because I am pretty sure that the classmate was the one who bit him on Friday. I didn't see it happen, but when I was observing over lunch on Friday I saw this same girl push my son and another child and bite a different child. The teachers handled it as well as possible. I hope she gets over this phase soon. This morning DS1 stopped at the doorway to the classroom and didn't want to go in. The child that was closest to us (there were 4 there already) was the suspected biter. He may not hold a grudge, but apparently he doesn't forget either.

Growing up
DS1 is changing so fast lately! He is saying new words almost daily. He is also starting to exert his independence, both at meal time and at sleep time. I got to watch him interacting with the other kids several times last week when I dropped DS2 off at daycare at noon. Today I saw the last part of lunch and some playtime. It's just amazing, watching him grow!
