We've had a rough week around here. Brad came home from work with a bad virus last week, and we think it's been passed on to Emily. She hasn't been "herself" in days, and last night we hit the peak of "Yuck!" She woke up about every 45 minutes, crying. I'd rock for about 10 minutes, then she'd sleep on my chest for about 15-20 minutes, then we'd slide over to my side for a few minutes more, then on her back next to me. Then she'd wake up all stuffy nosed, and we'd start the process again. It breaks my heart to see her feeling so bad! I took her to the doctor this morning, just in case it was something we could treat, but it turned out to be a nasty cold, and we have to let it finish running its course. She's been discontented all day and not her regular smiley, babbling self. I'm hoping we're hitting the peak with things slacking off soon. We're ready for our baby to feel better and get back to her "self" again! Brad's mom has graciously agreed to stay the night to help us make it through. (I know- we're very fortunate!) Hope the rest of you out there in blogging world aren't catching the "Yuck!" like we have.
In the midst of it all, we had to have our house sprayed
for bugs. Emily and I headed down to my mom's for the
morning while we waited on the fumes to settle.
Tonight we headed out to Brad's parents to get a
little break. Poor Emily! Her eyes are bloodshot
and swollen, and she feels so bad.
