Our little sicky

Oh, poor baby William...he has something. Maybe it's just teething, but he had a fever all day yetserday. We thought it was strange that he slept in until 7:30, but as it turns out he slept most of the day and when he wasn't sleeping he wanted to be held and he'd put his little head on your shoulder.... poor buddy! It was so yucky that we couldn't even take him outside, and you know he loves the outdoors. It has been raining since Thursday...a lot.... So I brought the cozy coupe inside, put some friends in it and we rode around in the house for about an hour. Back and forth from the kitchen to his bedroom. If you'd stop he'd shake the steering wheel...poor guy!

Hopefully today he'll start feeling better, but I won't know because I'm at work. It's days like today that I don't like working. We have our state assessments this week so it's really hard to be out....

Speaking of, I decided to make Good Luck on the Gateways gifts for all my Biology kids...partly because I like them, partly because I knew the other teachers wouldn't make them...isn't that awful of me? Well, I love them! I ordered custom fortune cookies that say "I see a passing Biology Gateway score in your future" or "Mrs. Perry has the best biology students" etc.... Then I dipped them in my new favorite thing- Wilton candy melts- and put sprinkles on them. Everyone gets three in a little bag with their name on it. Of course they're from baby William :-)

I crafted a little this weekend trying to finish up a project for Mary Katherine that I've been working on forever. I have a new ruffler foot for my sewing machine, but couldn't get it to work so I had to make ruffles the old way, using a pleater, but I haven't used it in so long I broke 6 needles- ugh! Oh well. Maybe I'm lucky I have a boy so there will be very few ruffles in my future.... I think the shirts are cute though :-) Hopefully her girls will like them.
