You might recall from last week’s journal entry that I, the baby, have been super sick with the flu. The mother has stayed up with me every night for over a week - rocking me, singing to me, and letting me sleep semi-reclined in her arms so that I can breathe more easily.
To repay her kindness, I sneezed directly into her eyeballs and gave her a raging eye infection, sinus infection, and ear infection, LOL!
I also gave both my parents the flu, so we’ve been hanging out all week watching Game of Thrones. The Sis, who didn’t get sick this time, has been channeling her inner Mary Poppins and serving the rest of us hundreds of spoonfuls of medicine a day and then proclaiming (in a sing-song voice), “Now you will feel much more better.”
Today the parents decided we were bored of the flu, so we went for a walk. The Sis walked over two miles by herself. I personally find that it’s easier to just let my parents do all the work while I relax.
Finally, Mom was having a conniption fit because my dad made some kind of pork chop dish with a balsamic maple reduction sauce. I personally don’t understand why they don’t just eat the oatmeal and mashed carrots that I’ve been eating – that is some seriously good grub, but whatever.

:) Glad to see you're all on the up-and-up! (The dish looks delish!)
I'm so sorry that you guys have been sick. And I'm so sorry we don't live by Tim so we can eat his pork chops with maple reduction sauce...oh, wait, pretty soon we will live by Tim. Yeah!
Wow, that meal looks yummy and artistic. Sorry that you all have been sick. I wouldn't wish the flu on an enemy.
Pretty hard to be mad at an infection vector with that smile. Glad you took the Heidi approach to illness (get out and get some fresh air), but as for me, I will stay hudled under my blanket sipping Pero.
I'm glad you got to get out before this cold weather. I am sorry about the sickness you have had. I hope everyone stays well from here on out. I, too, miss Tim's cooking. Great pics and diary entries!
We know just how ya feel! Only I've been slightly annoyingly anal about my little guy getting it, I'm sure my family is ready to strangle me! Must be a new mom thing!
