Bronchitis

Yes, Todd and I have Bronchitis. I have been coughing for about 3 weeks and finally decided it was time to go to the doctor. I feel like my family has been sick for the past month! I am SO READY to feel better, for all of us to feel better.

The kids have been coughing too, it started in Montana and then continued this week. So I thought it wise to go to back to their doctor. Turns out Wyatt has bad allergies (we think) and McKinley is about to have her third ear infection in 4 weeks! GREAT! We are going on a third antibiotic for McKinley and Wyatt is going to be tested for allergies in two weeks. So in the meantime, we have to deal with runny noses and McKinley also has a watery eyes. Yuck, but part of life. I just hate that they feel bad.

The GOOD NEWS.....

They are both still sleeping in until 7 or later each morning. One morning they slept until 7:45am! Of course, that was the morning I had to be ready and out the door by 7:30.

The BAD NEWS.....

I was supposed to be running in a half marathon in Nashville next Saturday, guess what, not gonna happen! I hate it, I mean I really hate it. The past three weeks have just been hard. I haven't been able to run with this awful cough and cold. This has made training impossible! I am going to go to the race and if I feel good, I am going to at least attempt to walk it! We shall see! Once I am feeling better, training for Kiawah officially starts!



Our life is marching on, coughs and running noses are just a part of it!

All night long

As I sit here pumping in bed at 3:30 in the morning, I wonder how I got my little one to sleep all night long in his crib! I'm watching wiggle and move on the baby monitor and thank God that he can now sleep all night with no help! Me on the other hand, well I'm trying to keep that milk supply up and create a supply for when we go out of town. When will my days of All Night Long come? - Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone

We all need friends

I remember almost a year ago when a good friend of mine invited me to a lunch group, Friday's at noon. At that time in my life I needed it! I needed to get out and meet new friends, other ladies with children about the same age, going through the same thing. This was a life saver for me. I am not a very outgoing person and it's hard to make friends when you don't have a full time job. Long story made short.... I made some GREAT friends in that group. As all good things to do though, things changed, people moved on and life became a little crazy for all of us. So the lunch group is starting up again and even though some people have left, we have some new faces to get to know! Wednesday a couple of us went out for a ladies night out and it was great! Two new people for me to get to know and I feel like I have made two new life long friends. It's so refreshing to just have a night out with the ladies and yes, we may spend the whole night talking about our babies and what t...

First trip to the ER

Image
Yesterday was a day of firsts! First time to try to potty training and first trip to the ER. Here is how we ended up there..... He woke up feeling good and we had a nice start to potty training! He didn't eat a lot of breakfast but some days he does and others he doesn't so I didn't think much about it. When lunch time rolled around he still didn't eat. He then became very cranky and uninterested in the potty thing so I let my dad take him up for his nap. He normally goes down pretty easy but today he didn't. He said that his tummy hurt and couldn't get comfortable. He finally fell asleep but didn't stay asleep long. He moved all around and cried out a couple times then finally woke up. He was NOT himself. He cried and wanted to be held. Then all of a sudden he would be fine. Then minutes later he would say his tummy hurt, then drop to his knees and cry and move around trying to get comfortable. It was so sad. My parents wanted him to spend the night si...
