I really shouldn't complain. But after a flu/winter season with very little illness, this past week has not been kind. Michael takes the lead with a double ear infection, vomiting & a high fever. Liam, Chloe and I are just battling colds. Chloe enjoyed an added bonus of 4 month shots yesterday & she did NOT love it. Mike was sick in February but is okay so far (knock wood).
I think I was getting a bit spoiled. Chloe had been sleeping through the night and her schedule has evolved quite nicely. Michael and Liam have toned down some of their defiance in favor of other attention seeking methods- at least it's a change. They started preschool last week and eased right into their new classes. Dinner was being made more often than not, naps were being taken more often than not...small victories but good ones!
Then the weather warmed up a bit & threw us all for a loop. The one thing about illness that really does me in is the sheer lack of sleep that often goes hand-in-hand with sick kids. If I were rested, this would all be much easier to roll with.
I haven't blogged because it's just not at the top of my list and I continue to experience impairments in my ability to put together thoughts. For example, I was pondering something earlier in the week & sort of had the beginnings of a post in my mind...yeah, that's all gone now. I don't even remember what it was about exactly but it was something relating to philosophy class in college? If I get it back together, I will write it up...and then you can have fun figuring out what on earth I am talking about ;)
For now, my baby girl is FOUR months old tomorrow...how does time move fast and slow all at the same time? At least I have my inspiration for blogging...photos to be included to spruce up this tired blog of mine :)
