We took the kids to Tanglin Mall today to see Santa. Henry told me before we even left the house that he was not going to sit on Santa's lap. Sarah also didn't want to. Anna said later that she wanted to but no one asked her! Poor kid! Anyway, in the line, they give the kids some paper to write a letter to Santa and put the letters in his mailbox (next to Santa). Henry asked for a bear, Sarah asked for a stuffed animal dog, and Anna asked for a yellow shirt, yellow pants, yellow socks, and yellow shoes. I think they made these decisions in the line (and we were second in line and only waited about 10-15 minutes total (we got there a few minutes before Santa).
Henry is still not acting like his energy levels are normal (but maybe 90%) but Anna woke this morning and said she had a sore throat. As the day progressed she had a fever and a funny tummy (thank goodness she didn't throw up). After some Motrin and a long nap, she was as chatty as Henry was on Friday after being sick. Hopefully Sarah, Craig, & I don't have to go through this same sickness now, but again, it seems to be a fast-moving thing which is its only positive.
Tomorrow we are going to tour three preschools for Henry. Hopefully one of them will be a good fit!
