Illnesses, be gone!
Yes, that’s right. Along with everyone else in the whole world, my children are sick. I took them both to the doctor on Wed. The verdict: Sophia has a sinus infection, Drew has ear infections, and they both have pink eye. Joy, oh, joy! They are both on oral antibiotics, and I picked up eye drops for Drew today (the oral stuff just wasn’t doing anything for his eyes).
As many of you may have guessed, not only have the illnesses brought about whining, but lack of sleep for everyone as well. I am so.tired. Drew has been waking up every 30-45 min. Sophia’s been waking up 2 or 3 times a night. I just want to sleep, people!
I’m looking forward to this weekend (other than the freezing weather!). Tomorrow afternoon/evening Ron and I are going to a movie. Not sure which movie we’ll see. Katie, our regular Sat. evening babysitter, will be here to entertain the kiddos. We’ll probably do dinner as well.
Sunday our niece and 2 other girls (who are like nieces to us) are spending the night. It should be fun. They love our kids, and our kids love them, so it should go pretty well. We promised them we’d do something fun on Monday, now we just have to figure out what is fun… Hmm… Ideas? The girls are between 10 and 13.
Time to put the older child to bed, then Ron and I are going to play a video game together. Hopefully the kids will cooperate tonight and let me sleep a bit more than I have.
