Paige's Return to Deutschland!

Hallo from Berlin! This blog is a place for friends and family to get occasional snip-its on Biggs' life in Germany and me to assuage my guilt for living so far away from loved ones. Expect bad syntax and so-so sentence structure. There is no shame in just scrolling for little Biggs' photos for a "cute fix" without the risk of getting sucked into social media.

Corona Round 2

Monday January 16 7:00 AM

Crosby: "My leg hurts."
Paige: "That's not a reason not to go to school."
Crosby: "My stomach hurts."
Paige: "Those things don't seem related. Jump in the shower, get your clothes on, and get on the tram to to be at school before 8."
8:07 AM
Call from the school secretary to pick him up. She informed me that there were a few positive kids in Crosby's class.
8:15 AM 
Negative corona test
5:00 PM
Positive corona test

On Tuesday he was feeling totally fine. The rest of us stayed negative despite the fact the kids all sleep in the same room and we all snuggle everyday. This round we had Crosby wear the mask to not get Alla sick.

These family onesies came in real handy this week.

Isolation in Berlin ends with a negative test or after 10 days. He still has a faint positive test so he missed one birthday party yesterday and one today. Either way, the littles are going back to Kita tomorrow. TBD when Cros can go to school.

Our general isolation rhythm is:

Morning: Thirty minutes of exercise:

Animated youtube exercises.

Running laps.

Late Morning: Take the negative tested littles to "blow the stink off". Usually this is a masked supermarket run. Crosby holds down the fort reading on his new Kindle or playing a math video game. 

Nap Time:

Mostly Carmen by herself, but sometimes Hugo or I join. The boys get to do whatever they want with screens....basically for the rest of the day. Although there were a few moments of:

Playtime:

Paul's Christmas present to the kids comes in handy.

Art:
Carmen drew this for our sick neighbor friend.

A rare moment of the boys getting along...sigh.

But really, mostly screens. Thank goodness there are 40 Marvel films. Because we are going a little crazy around here.
