It was a cool and beautiful Sunday morning. We got up and ready for morning services. The afternoon was pretty cool, so we spent most of it outside. Mysia rode her bike up and down the street while Malachi seemed to enjoy his time in the shade on the swing. Come to find out, he was sick and had a fever once we came back inside. Lydia did the grocery shopping. Poor Malachi was sick for the rest of the evening, and didn't feel good at all. We watched a few movies and TV. Lydia and I worked on a few projects and chores around the house.
Malachi was still sick on Monday. Lydia stayed home with him while Mysia attended school and I went in to work. Lydia was able to get some rest as well, but Malachi was just feeling horrible. He didn't hold food for long, and wasn't interested in taking medicine for his ongoing fever. After work, I took Mysia to piano lessons before we returned home for the evening. Malachi was glad to see us, but didn't do too well until he vomited before supper. Then he slept the entire evening! Mysia finished her homework, ate supper, and enjoyed a bath before bed.
Tuesday was my turn to stay home with Malachi. Lydia went to work and dropped Mysia off at school. Malachi was feeling so much better and spent most of the morning playing with legos. He watched some TV shows after a late lunch while I did some things around the house. Lydia and Mysia came home and we ate supper. Mysia worked on her homework that evening.
Wednesday was fairly normal. Malachi went back to school and both kids had homework that evening. We watched a few tv shows.
It was a change to cool weather on Thursday. We had the windows open and enjoyed the breeze through the house. We had planned to attend small group Bible study, but it was canceled due to illness. The evening was spent at home doing homework, then the kids took turns playing games on the computer and did a few "workouts" on the Wii Fit.
Friday was finally here. Lydia and I got of work a little early and spent time together before picking up the kids later. We watched TV and enjoyed another very cool evening. Malachi and I walked Buttercup before bedtime.
On Saturday, we got up and got busy with our weekend chores. The kids listened to a few radio dramas while breakfast was prepared. Lydia attended a women's brunch while the kids and I got some chores done. After lunch, I mowed the lawn and the kids played with the new neighbor kids next door. I left after supper for an evening Southern Gospel concert featuring the Calvarymen, the Kellys, and Gold City. Lydia and the kids went to a pool birthday party for one of Mysia's friends. They had fun playing in the water and getting pizza along with birthday cake. Back at home they watched some TV before bed. I enjoyed the concert and I was able to visit with the artists, making it an awesome event for me. It was late by the time I arrived home, and the kids were already asleep.
