Month in Review: November 2023

 

November started off slowly, but by the end of the month, I was feeling crazed!  Henry got hand, foot, and mouth disease at school, and while he had to stay home for a few days, he wasn't feeling too badly.  I think Tom got it way worse than Henry did!  I let him watch some Youtube videos so I could get some work done during the day, and he's now obsessed with Ms. Rachel.  He keeps asking us to put his "show" on - ugh!  His daycare hosted a Thanksgiving dinner for all the families, and it was actually the first time we had been allowed inside since he started (which was during COVID).  We got to see the Toddler room where he spends his day and he enjoyed showing us around, ha!  Thanksgiving was pretty quiet - my in-laws decided late that they weren't going to come up this year, so we had already bought everything.  We ended up with a lot of leftovers!  And then, Henry turned two!!  I really can't believe he's already two, it's wild.  We had a small family party, and my mom was able to come up from Oklahoma for it, so that was really nice.  The weekend was so busy, though, and work has been crazy, so I'm trying to play a lot of catch-up right now.

  1. You have been busy and lots going on! Glad Henry is better and that you guys got to see his daycare room and also had a big birthday. Take care of yourself and get some 'mom-relaxation'. Hope your weekend is good!

    1. Thanks, Kay! I've been feeling so overwhelmed lately, but there are so many good things going on! Hard to believe we have a 2 year old now!

  2. I remember those daycare days! And glad you had a nice Thanksgiving even if the in- laws couldn't make it. We had a ton of leftovers too. Good grief. :)

  3. It seems like Henry was just born and now he's two! Crazy! So, your husband got the hand/foot/mouth too? Poor dears!

    1. I know! Two years have flown by! Yes, Tom got it, too, which my siblings tell me is very common - they've all gotten from their kids and also way worse than the kids.

  4. What a month!? I am sorry to hear Henry wasn't feeling well. I can't believe he is already two. Looks like you had a great reading month. I just finished One Christmas Morning. I thought it was just ok - a bit of a downer at times. I look forward to your thoughts on it!

    1. I'm glad he was feeling better by the time his birthday came around, so he could enjoy it! I don't know what it is, but it's the year of downer Christmas books!
