Sick, Forever and a Day Sick...

Liv is on day 12 of her cold (and still going strong). She was awake for more of the night than she slept.


Emma is on day 5 or 6....can't remember. She has the horrid cough which bothers her to the point of becoming sick. (multiple times)


I'm on day 7, at this point, I wouldn't cry if my nose fell off.


I'm officially tired.


Tired of vicks vapor rub, wiping noses (including my own!) and pursuading the girls that the Tylenol is good for them, I'm tired of the general glum that comes with sickness....tired of being tired. I think I've fixed my hair once in the last 2 weeks, I've been outside the house once since last Sunday. I miss people!!


Andy and I were quite a pair last night. In all our trips up and down the stairs to help Livy, I pinched my siatic nerve and was in super pain, and Andy ran right into the footboard of our bed and banged his leg up good. : (
This pic is of Andy and Emma dancing at a party when she was 1 1/2 years old. It's a cheerful memory which sounds good today. :)

Samara had a cold that kept hanging on (she'd get better, then worse) then I finally saw her stickin' her finger in her ear after 2 weeks, sure enough, she had an ear infection. It is one of those things that can keep them from getting better but is sometimes not as noticeable. Samara never even had a fever. The drainage almost always is the cause. You probably already know this but your post just made me think of it. It was Samara's first round of antibiotics.
