Mom and Dad took the kids to the store with them to buy flowers, pavers, dirt, and mulch for the new flower garden we are planting today. It hasn't been this quiet in the house in a long time. I keep thinking that the baby is taking a nap.

Both kids are sick with runny/stuffy noses. Poor Nate has not been sleeping well despite the humidifier in his room and the nose drops I've been giving him. Both his naps and nighttime sleep have been pretty bad. Thankfully, my parents have been here to take them in the morning and let me sleep. I was up more times than I can count last night.
