After a day spent trying to convince my 3 year old that you need to rest when you are sick, I'm back to work. He seemed to bounce back pretty well... after resting on the couch for most of the afternoon, he nibbled on some lunch (though not the chicken soup, much to my dismay), took at 2 hour nap, then rested some more while watching some of his favorite Disney Channel shows.
By evening he was ready to play, though I encouraged him to take it easy. We did a couple of puzzles and read a few books before bed. (Sidenote - the kid is becoming a whiz at puzzles! He put together two different 24 piece puzzles in less than 10 minutes. I guess we just need to keep looking for more challenging puzzles!)
It was great getting to spend the day with him and just be a mom. It's the job I love the most!

Glad he's better! Learning SHop has a great puzzle collection-we had this problem a couple of months ago with Michael...these boys are too smart!
Awww..bless his wee heart. I'm glad that he's feeling better. Kids bounce back from these things, way quicker than we do.
I've found some great puzzles, online, here http://astore.amazon.com/jigsawpuzzle-20
Glad you had some bonus Mummy time...
It's those days that make me want to be a stay at home mom...
I'm glad he recovered quickly!
I'm glad he's feeling better! It's so sad when a boy who's normally a bundle of energy just lies around feeling yucky. (Although they do like to cuddle with Mommy when they feel bad...)
So sweet. I'm glad he's feeling better and you two got a day just for yourselves.
I don't have any kids yet, but I imagine I'll treasue those days spent with them too. For now, I love doing that w/my dogs and my hubby. :)
I am glad that he is feeling better:-)
hope he's back to 100% soon. And get that boy some more challenging puzzles :)
Glad to hear he's feeling better :)
My youngest went through a puzzle phase when she was 3 or 4 (she'll be 6 next month)... she still likes to do them, but not like before. She was a puzzle-aholic!
