House of Sickies, part 2

We obviously had a blast (last post), but then the sickness got worse and worse. My mom loved snuggling both the kids while they were sick, and I was really glad to have her help. When both the kids were up at night she took one and I took the other. As Tali's got worse, I just slept with her on my chest so the congestion wouldn't settle and I could keep an eye on her. Max's last about 4 days but Tali is finally getting over hers (she got it the worst) and back to her little happy self.
Nanny and Tali Snuggling
Poor girl
It breaks my heart but I love the snuggles
I love her deep brown eyes, they were so sad while she was sick
Max finally started to feel better so I had him make a birthday card for Gma Esplin. As he was coloring with "special markers" I was taking care of Tali. After about 10 minutes Max came in to show me, not his card but his hands
He told me that he wanted to be Spider-man and so he needed blue hands. He thought the blue marker would help him have blue hands  and shoot things out of them. How can you get mad at an imagination like that. Way to go Spidey!
Aunt Misty feeding Tali. She can't get enough of Tali and was glad to feed her, (By the way I made the pinafore Tali is wearing late one night).
After a whole week of sickness and being in the house, Max was ready to be outside. He went and helped Papa in the garden. After a while he came in the house and said that he needed a snack of peeps. Nannie and Papa are softies and he got just what he wanted. Not one peep....
not two peeps....
but the WHOLE package!
We were planing on heading home on Friday but the kids were too sick to travel. We waited until Sunday and even then we had trouble with ears. 
The kids were glad to be in their own beds. Max got a full night sleep first time in two weeks!
