Drink Up

This week’s theme for Project 52 is “drink up”.  Oh man, I had an awesome idea in my head for this one.  Let me just say it involved me trying something new with an off camera flash and trying to stretch myself with some cool editing. 

But guess what?  That didn’t happen.  Not because I didn’t really want to, but real life got in the way of my photography and blogging life. The nerve.

Little Lady somehow picked up a nasty virus called Hand Foot and Mouth Disease.  She had a horrible case of it and was covered with nasty lesions.  It made the poor thing miserable.  Charley had infected tonsils and a high fever starting Sunday night.  Cole woke up in the middle of the night Monday night with an extremely high fever and had strep. 

So three little sickies home all week with me.  The good news is that I was doing my best to keep them hydrated.  That means lots of drinking!

Can you tell someone was not too excited to have me try to get a candid of him drinking?  This is the true face of a child whose mom is a photographer.  ;)

And yes, he chose to wear a buttoned up shirt while he was sick.  He is wearing jogging pants with that shirt (don’t ask).
