SICK

So its been a yucky half week in our home! Both Children have been ill with a mixture of viruses/ infections/ asthma/ teething and temperatures. Its been pretty full on during the night especially sponging down hot little heads and trying to get the little ones to settle. Kelsea so good in the night - although she is also sick she will say to him "oh its all right darlin, mummy and Kelsea are here" etc. -very cute. It is such a pain as Eamon was starting to SLEEP through the night - no small thing for one of OUR kiddies!! Hopefully he will sleep again now that the temps have gone!

Kelsea is on a preventative puffer now. Which I actually think is working - as she isn't wheezing nearly as much. She has it three times a day. So glad it isn't Eamon who has to take it - it would be impossible!

Kelsea has become SO bad at sleeping. She doesn't sleep in her bed at all at the moment. Falling asleep on the couch where we often leave her then she comes in when she wakes to us.

Jared also has had one of the worst weeks health - wise that he's ever had. Lots of pain and illness.....going to see a specialist this week hoping to finally get some answers!

Sorry no pics (would have just been of tired looking people in a GROSSLY messy house!!)

Eamon can say a FEW words now
- Mum
- Dad
- Hi
- Ta
- Boo
- Lots of screaming and yelling :)

OH he also is DANCING so cute - wish i had a video camera to show you!

Poor Kels with the asthma. The whole breathing thing in kids scares me, cause you feel so useless when they are struggling to breath. Good to hear that the asthma pump thing is working though. You must be so so so tired... and want nothing more then sleep! Hope your next post is titled WELL! :-)

That sucks that everyone was sick at the same time, you are such a trooper, there is no way I could still function on the amount of hours you DONT get to sleep.

Rebecca said...

haha lisa W - I don't function - my house looks like one of those hoarder houses - liek the one on PRivate practice last night? hmmmm you would cringe and say BECKY get your act into gear, lucky my husband doesn't complain - as obviously he isn't cleaning it either!!!

Oh for a good nights sleep, hard to get with toddlers and babies. IMPOSSIBLE when sickness strikes. The worst part is just when the kiddies are on the other side of it your body will be self destructing due to massive amounts of sleep deprivation! Hope you are all well soon.
