Summer time Stomach Flu

The Sellers house was hit by a most heinous stomch bug this week - within about 6 hours it took three of us down (Chad escaped), along with the other little girl our nanny watches, her dad, and the nanny's three children.

Fortunately, it was about 24 hours and we were on the mend. Sam still isn't eating much but hopefully he'll be back on track tomorrow. He's also refusing to wear clothes, but I don't think that's related! Remember when Gavin went through his no clothes phase? The one that lasted about 3 years? He would come home, or walk into Gamma's and strip down to his diaper/pull-up/boxers (yes the phase spanned all those undergarments!)

Otherwise the boys are doing well. Unfortunately Gavin only made it to 1 out of 4 nights of basketball camp. Next week he starts the summer refresher course for reading and math - 3 days a week for 2 weeks. His reading skills continue to improve - we have his old books out for Sam, and they are actually perfect for him to practice his reading with. It's so cute when Sam cuddles up to him and Gavin reads!

They are really gettiing along great.Sam is a full fledged toddler and a complete daredevil. He is driving us a little crazy because he is getting into everything and literally jumping off the furniture. But we wouldn't have it any other way :)

Sam is also obsessed with babies. He has a cabbage patch doll that he snuggles with, feeds a bottle, and kisses. He also loves looking at pictures of babies in his baby books, and on the yo-baby yogurt containers.
