Boys Day Out

Well, while Brooks has been "sick" with hand, foot, and mouth disease (which he caught from his sister), he's been staying home with his Daddy. Brooks only felt sick when he broke out with his fever before the bumps appeared. And he did have one rough night of sleep because the bumps on his feet were bothering him. But, he's pretty much been totally fine this week. With this virus, the bumps have to be peeling before you're considered not to be contagious anymore, so Brooks wasn't able to go to school at all. Luckily Chad has a flexible schedule and he can do most of his work from home. Brooks spent most of the week watching movies, playing with blocks, drawing, and playing with play dough. On Thursday, Chad took him out to Lake Georgetown to fish and swim around. Chad said that Brooks had the best time! He fished, threw rocks for Kansas, climbed some boulders, and even went swimming in the lake. Man - I wish I could have a "sick day" like that!
