Life Happens

,

I have been MIA from Blogland lately. Life happened all over my house.

Miss O found herself with hand, foot and mouth and has been suffering through that for the past 10 days or so. Her blisters have finally cleared so we're finally doing better on the HF&M front.

Riley finished up his MDO summer program and he had a party last week. We almost had to miss that day because he wasn't feeling well and because Miss O was contagious. We went anyway. I'm a bad parent, but I kept a close eye on Miss O and she didn't do anything to spread her cooties.

Riley ended up with a cold. Not too bad of a cold, but enough to stir up his asthma. He, of course, gave it to Olivia who, of course, gave it to me. Now we're all feeling like the wrath of God. Luckily, we had a 3 month follow up scheduled for the Pulmonologist tomorrow morning. I was so excited to actually make it 3 months without an asthma flare up and low and behold....we didn't make it! Almost! At any rate, now the Dr. gets to listen to him wheeze, what a treat!

My house is a mess, the dishes are piled up and the laundry isn't getting done.

I need a nap.

Oh and Olivia has decided not to wear a diaper or clothes anymore. So now she's just peeing all over the floor. I don't know how she manages to wiggle out of all her clothes but she does it every time I put her to bed. Then she pees on her bed. I have a baby potty out but I can't get her to actually use it. She pulls her diaper down instead of undoing the tabs so I'm not sure how to keep her from taking off the diaper. More experienced moms, I need your help!! She just turned 2 and she likes to be naked.

I hope all of you are well and good!! Happy Summer!!

Oh you poor Mommy! I hope you get a good night's rest and all the sleep you need!!!! I am sorry I cannot help with the diaper situation- none of my kids were smart enough to figure that out! Does she know how to get out of a onesie?

Gosh, I remember those days well. It seemed so difficult at the time, but then they grow up and break your heart by going away to college 1500 miles away!

Sounds like you guys have had your share of sickness lately. I'm so sorry you have.
It's been going around our house as well. I hope you're all better soon. Thanks for your visit.

Believe it or not, this too shall pass......and you'll be losing sleep over other more important things like son's who buy motorbikes and daughter's getting their drivers license :)

Keep your chin up!

OH yes I've had weeks like that, in fact come to think of it, I've had a few months of one-thing-after-another.

Take a few minutes of time for yourself, I really does help!
