sick day.

i spent a good part of today in bed. i woke up so dizzy that i couldn't stand up. or even sit up for that matter. ugh. it was awful. if i moved i felt like i was going to lose it. so i stayed right there in bed.

days like today are hard for me. i don't like the skip in routine. (if you know me at all you know that's a NEW one.) i would have much rather matthew made his way to work for the day and we go about our normal business. so i had to give myself somewhat of a pep talk and tell myself that if this was going to be the way it was, then i better just enjoy some time to rest.

and i did. 

i slept a little extra, read a lot, tried not to move too much for fear i may pass out or throw up. by about 11 am i yearned for my little boys to come snuggle up with me right where i was. thankfully that happened before too much more time passed.

will came to snuggle, play, nurse and fall asleep. 

tuck came to play dinosaurs and to look at his bug chart. you should hear him say "boll weevil." it's the cutest thing.

and grey bear came to talk a little about his day.

before i knew it they were all tucked in for their own naps and i decided on another myself. i woke up feeling less dizzy and as the day progressed i was back on my feet but not before i found plastic dinosaurs and a few extra blankets in my bed.

now if you're going to be sick, that's the way to do it.
