I am finally at the tail end of the flu that is going around, not something I would wish on anyone. I think I would get better if I could actually sit down and rest, that will never happen, lol.
This weekend I had Nick and Bill worked, but sometimes it is easier when I have him by myself, I am better organized and most of the time, things run smoothly. Since I am still weak, I saved my energy for play time and cooking.
Of course Nick and Bean love play time and nothing better than seeing them playing and having fun to lift my spirits. I am not sure which one of them has more energy, though Bean might be the winner on that one.
Nick found a new game, roll the tire around the yard.
Then he decided to clean up the yard, his wagon was full of leave and he picked up two of Bean's old water jugs. We let Bean play with them in the yard, he loves to push them around and when they get beat up, we have plenty of new ones.
Nick discovered the holes in the fence, wonder what is on the other side?
I realized I needed some rest time too, so I had Bill run out and get Nick a block wagon, it came with blocks and picks them up when you roll it over. He also grabbed an extra bag of blocks that has a wheel base, Nick loved them and played quietly for once. The best thing to keep a busy boy, happy.
On the crafting front, I made a small pillow stitchery, so I had something to keep my hands busy this weekend. The design is free and can be found, as well as others, at Free Christmas Coloring. The designs are great for stitching, punching or appliqué.
I didn't have time today to finish it into a pillow and the blue marker is still on it.

grin!
hope the weakness goes quickly, and the rest of the week is better health wise.
Sure hope you feel better, soon! Love the photos of Nick...what a cutie! Lovely stitchery piece, too!
Debbie, I was worn out just reading about what Nicholas was up to. :)
So nice for you that you're almost over the flu bug.
Thanks for the link and I really like your stocking. x
The creativity a child can come up with! One busy little boy.
Nick is adorable and I'm sure that youthful energy keeps you on your toes.
When I am at school, I am often assigned care of those high energy kids ... the ones flipping and flopping like a fish out of water ... and you know, those are the most interesting and creative. They can think up hundreds of things to do that are more fun than taking a nap. Nick is already learning how to entertain himself and how wonderful that Bean can join the fun. Hope you are feeling better by now. the stitchery is darling.
OMGosh he is a cutie! You have captured some beautiful memories in these photos! Also love your finish!
Your stitchery is cute! Thanks for the link to the coloring pages. Spent quite some time downloading lots of future projects. Hope that you feel better soon....
