My husband, the boys, and I got our second doses of covid vaccine this week.  My daughter is not quite old enough.    We keep hearing of people having strong reactions to the second dose, but fortunately none of us did.  I had a sore arm and mild headache for a day after both doses and that was all.  I'm glad it wasn't worse.

For Easter the kids got a weather station.  It records wind speed, rainfall, temperature, UV index, and pressure.  It sends it to a display in the house, but I can also see it on my phone.
