Destruct and Disinfect

Scott slept until noon today. He didn't even budge when Susanne went in and out of the room to get the milk and medications she needed for Paxton. Susanne thought that it was important for him to rest up as much as possible to aid in the healing process. Once he was stirring around, Susanne brought him breakfast in bed, even though it was technically lunchtime. He loved waking up to the smell of a warm meal.

While Scott was sleeping, Paxton and Susanne spent time playing. Susanne forced him to work as well, but she liked to cover it up by making it seem like fun. Also, she got to talk to Aunt Leenie over the phone. Since they no longer had weekly pajama parties, Susanne often felt out of the loop with the latest and greatest happenings in the Neumann's lives. It was nice to catch up and hear her voice.

Scott had not fully recovered, but he was feeling much better. They decided to take it easy today and not push it too much. Scott went out for a short bit to get his haircut and brought home some lunch for them. Once Paxton went down for his afternoon nap, they decided to watch a movie. Scott made some homemade cherry limeade to drink and popped some popcorn as their tasty treat. They had not had any time together for as long as they could remember. It was nice to finally take a break from life and hang out.

They finished out the day by doing some of their weekly chores. Of utmost importance was destructing and disinfecting the room Scott was staying in so that Susanne could safely rejoin him at night. It had been weird for them to sleep in separate rooms. It had even been just as weird for them to sit on separate couches over the last few days. They had to try extremely hard to not show affection to each other out of concern for spreading germs. This was all for the sake of Paxton.

Gigi and Poppy joined them at night for another movie. They all enjoyed some dinner as they vegged out on the couch.
