Holiday weekends and illness go hand in hand

It certainly seems when it's a holiday weekend, someone in the house is sick. So no surprise that 4th of July has both K (baby boy) and me with a summer cold of some kind. We both are running low grade fevers. I've got an awful sore throat. I suspect the boy does too, but he obviously can't tell us. He also has a troublesome cough. I had myself tested for strep, just in case but all clear.

But we all know motherhood still calls even when we don't feel well. So it will be a fun 3 days of entertaining the kids. Did I mention it's supposed to rain all weekend too? I'm open to any arts and craft suggestions you might have! Hoping to make a 4th of july cake with the girl, M and do lots of coloring. But something for the boy has me a bit stumped.
