Where have we been

Nowhere really, but when your kid is sick & up all night, just making it through the day becomes a chore. Fi has been sick with yet another bug that she picked up from school. I suspect she has been sucking face with her BF Wallace (the classmate, not the dog), because he's been a snotty, coughing mess as well. Poor Anneliese. She'd fall asleep, cough until she threw up, wake up screaming, parents would rush in to clean her up and rock her back to sleep. Rather, rinse, repeat.

Finally, sometime over the weekend, we just cut out a few steps and brought her to bed with us. She slept a little better with us, so we spent 3 days with her either on papa Rob's chest or cradled in my arms. It sounds sweet, but have you ever tried to sleep with a flailing 19lb starfish? For being less than 30", she takes up half a king sized bed. And homegirl throws her arms around like she's at a rave.

Thankfully she seems to be on the mend now...until the next round of daycare ickies.

  1. Ugh, more daycare crud! I'm sorry to hear that Fi has been so miserable-feeling lately... just try to convince yourself that she's getting it overwith now and will be healthy down the road. Just look at Mommy B - she was a daycare kid, and she's a pediatric nurse now - and she never gets sick. Ru has been coughing a little at night too, but I think it's because of the weather... those mid-50's nights down here in the south can be rough!
