Up to much this week?

Me personally not much but my son is enjoying drumming and karate. Not at the same time though that would be funny to see.

All the commenters so far are sick... Me too.

Getting through a sinus infection that came with a side-dish of pneumonia.

I'll be ok... 4 month old, thanks entirely to my wife, is letting me sleep.. The others are with their other parents so it's been alright rest-wise...

Whole family, trading sinus virus back and forward for 3 weeks.

Only upside is that my wife held it off until I got better.

Will try to catch up on sleep. That hand mouth foot nastiness is finally behind, hopefully.

Not a dad, but I miss mine... Love those kids, my dudes. It'll never feel like enough on either end, but if you're lucky, that'll somehow be a good thing. And call em if you got em!

I swear I'm trying to be uplifting and not a downer! Spread the love, boys.

We've been one by one falling to the local stomach bug. Yesterday and today it's my turn! So that's what I'm doing not leaving the toilet but my boy seems to be having fun on this computer so that's nice

Slowly recovering from a huge cold that the eldest brought into the house. Every year I forget that the start of the school term means virus after virus.

Also dealing with a cold at the moment... I'm the first to get it this time which is a suprise.

Life wise all is good. No issues with school which is great as my eldest started secondary and it's a huge change.

Kiddo had a rough weekend at her mom's but got to school on time this morning so I'm gonna call that a win.

But we're going to the Ren Faire this weekend so that'll be fun.

Not a lot really. Daughter (2) is getting fiestier and fiestier and keeps battering everyone with her toy horses. My son has decided to learn Italian on Duolingo and has been making some decent progress!

Finding mealtimes and bedtimes stressful with him though, starting to really dread the evenings.
