Where did January go?

Can you believe it's February all ready? Where did the 31 days of January go? 

Well our month of January seemed to be spent with a sick Jonas, thankfully he is now over the whole thing (knock on wood). On Tuesday they had grandparents day at daycare, so both my parents and Frank's parents went with him to daycare. Last year my parents were here to attend the grandparents day, but back then Jonas only had been to daycare for a week, and he hated it. This time around he had a lot of fun, and so did the grandparents:)

This coming Tuesday they are celebrating Shrovetide, which I wrote about here last year. This year he is dressing up as a lion. I borrowed the costume from a friend, and so far we haven't had too much success getting him into it, but I hope that I Tuesday morning can dress him like I do every morning, and maybe he won't realise that it's a costume:) Hey you got to use the little tricks. So hopefully sometime during the next week I will be able to post pictures of my little lion:)

Hope you are all doing well, and have enjoyed your weekend!

A little update...

Seems like life been way too busy lately. Or well we haven't done much, but with Jonas' broken collarbone it just seems like we have been even more busy. 

We have been to the hospital today for a check up, and it was healing very well. So the doctor recommended him to keep the wrap on for another week, though we could take it of for him to get a bath and when he was sleeping. And even better... we don't have to go back for another check.

Frank has the rest of the week off, so Jonas isn't going back to daycare until Monday, and by then it should have healed a lot more. Though we are really lucky to have grandparents that are able and willing to babysit Jonas while we are at work. Last week my mother in law watched him for 2 days, and Friday I was off work. Sunday afternoon my mum arrived with bus, and my dad picked her up today. I could get used to having her live here... getting home to a clean house, no laundry, and a nice home cooked meal... all that she has done while entertaining Jonas for a whole day. 

Well that will be the little update for now. Don't know when I will be back since I will be working all day both Friday and Saturday. So until then have a great weekend!

My little wild boy...

Monday they called from daycare that they thought Jonas was getting sick, because after his nap he wouldn't do anything, he was just laying on a blanket on the floor or cuddling up with his "daycare-mum". I stayed home yesterday, and took him to the doctor in the morning, who thought it was the flu. Most of the day he was just laying on his blanket... it wasn't until the afternoon he started getting up a little. I noticed he was using his left arm properly, but he had a small bruise on his arm, and I figured that was hurting a little.

We kept him home today, and my mother in-law came over to watch him. When I got home she said that it seemed like his left arm was hurting when she tried to pick him up. And she had also noticed that he didn't really use his left arm properly. So we ended up taking him to the doctor again, he sent us up to x-ray, and it  turned out he had broken his collarbone... so now he got some kind of wrap around his arms, which he will have to wear for a week. (I will get pictures another day, when we got home from the hospital we just had to hurry up with some dinner, and then a very late bedtime). 

So tomorrow my mother in-law will watch him again, then I will be working the night between Thursday and Friday, so I will have Friday off. I will be tired, but then Frank is off early on Fridays, so I will get to sleep when he gets home. My mum will come up Sunday night and stay till Wednesday, so he will get to stay at home at least a week, so he will have to rest his arms as much as possible, which will be hard, and probably even harder if he is in daycare. 

I'm just happy that we have a great support system... Thank God for grandparents!
