sickness, snuggling, and laundry chutes

Yesterday my poor Bart was sick. He stayed home from work and just wanted to be babied. I actually really like to take care of him. But, I find it very hard to get my to-do list complete when he's home. I just want to be by him and talk or whatever else just not clean. He slept most of the morning and when I got home from picking up Jadon from K, I came upstairs and Bossy was sleeping all snuggled up to Bart. I was shocked, Bostyn does NOT snuggle, if you try he cries and pulls away, he will fall asleep just fine if you just lay him in his crib, and that's how he likes things. I've often complained about this... When Bart saw my face he just said "I made him snuggle, he didn't like it at first, but I forced him." It was a cute sight!

If you know Bart well, you know he has a hard time not staying busy doing something. I think that's the reason we always have fun house projects going on. After he had layed around and watched TV and played around with the kids enough he got up and declared "Well, I'm going build a laundry chute." It took him about an hour is all.. he's not finished yet..but maybe tonight. It goes from our master closet straight down to the bin I have on top of the dryer. PERFECT!!! Yea.. with 4 bdrms, 2 baths upstairs I feel like I am hauling laundry every trip down the stairs. I LOVE IT!!!! Thanks honey. I love how handy you are.
