Another sick day with Darlin’

Mackenzie’s allergies are really giving her a fit. I feel so bad for her – she has a hard time sleeping at night because she’s so congested and she clearly doesn’t feel well. Last night was particularly rough on her and she woke up really cranky and just not happy, work is slow these days so I kept her home for some mama cuddles and so she could relax and try to get in a good nap. She did relax a bit, but she’s just a busy little thing, no nice, long naps for her! We had fun though, I need to remember to do these days with each of the kids more often. Seriously, spending a day with your little ones doing whatever they want to do.. it’s just good for your soul.

Sweet, Sick Girl

Mackenzie is a sick little thing. I feel just awful for her. She has had a stomach bug since Friday night and just can’t kick it. She seems to feel better, then is up half the night vomiting again. I hate not being able to do anything for her. I kept her home from school today for some mama loving and TLC – she was a little fussy and likes being outside, so we took a lot of walks, they make her pass out.

Ear Infection, Round 2

Last night was not fun, at all. I was sitting in bed snuggling with Mackenzie and she made a weird noise, the next thing I knew, she projectile vomited all over herself, me, the bed, and the floor. It’s amazing how much stuff can come out of such a little person. Adam got everything cleaned up while Mackenzie and I hopped in the shower. She scared me in there because he started shaking, in guessing she was cold or scared. I’m not sure, I turned up the heat on the water and she snuggled onto my chest and fell asleep. We put clean jammies on her and I sat up and rocked her for about an hour I make sure she was alright, then put her to bed.

Little Spot

Braden is sick, again. Not that you can tell from looking at him, but he’s had a little pimple that has been worrying me since Saturday so I took him to visit the pediatrician this morning. She is concerned that it’s another MRSA infection, so she took a culture, prescribed Bactrim and highly advised us to keep him home so that he doesn’t share the lovely germs with any of his daycare buddies. I took the rest of the day off and we hung out at home, I love being home with him. I wish I could stay home with him full-time, but unfortunately it’s just not an option at this time.

Sick Day and Christmas Program

We had a rough night, B went to bed around 8:30 and woke up at midnight fussing. I gave him some motrin (he’s cutting his canines) and rocked him back to sleep. A few minutes later he started fussing again and we decided to let him cry for a few minutes and see if he’d settle back down (he usually does). His cry went from a sad wimper to an all out scream within about 30 seconds, so Adam went in to check on him. Poor thing had thrown up and it was all over him and his crib. Adam got B out and started cleaning him up while I went to work on his bed.

Sick B :(

My sweet boy is sick We went to see Dr. Mary today and he’s on augmentin. She said his ears are the culprit – thankfully the tubes are doing their job, so they’re not infected, but there’s a whole ton of mucus and it’s draining and causing B to just be a wreck. He’s been out of school all week with a fever. I hate it when he doesn’t feel well

Little Boy

I was going back and looking at pictures from the last month or so today, and I noticed something.. Braden is starting to look like a little boy in some of them! Obviously, I know he’s a boy.. but that’s not what I mean. I mean he’s looking less like a baby and more like a little boy. That’s no good at all, he’s growing up too fast! I can’t believe he is almost 8 months old, time really flies.
