I may be in over my head. Im crazy stressin right now.
Tomorrow morning after our cleanings at the dentist we're going to be picking up our two nephews (2.5 & 5). They're going to be staying with us while their Mommy is in the hospital having their baby sister. She's having a c-section Tuesday morning so the boys will be with us probably Monday-Thursday at the earliest. I really hope she doesn't have to stay until Friday. The 5 year old is good. The 2.5 year old is a handful. MY 2 year old is battling the WORST cold she's ever had. Chances of the boys getting sick the second day they're here? Pretty high. Chances of them already being sick when they get here? Extremely high. (they're always sick, especially the 2.5 year old. You know, its a kid thing.)
So, yes. Im pretty much screwed. Thank God Matt is going to be off. Otherwise this would not be happening. Going from one child to three is going to be a bit hard. I know, your probably thinking "its not THAT bad!" But weather it is or not, their mother is not going to be here and Im just kind of nervous. Im going to need some major patient vibes sent my way. Just sayin.
Leah. My poor little baby. She is so miserable. My heart is just breaking. Her nose is running like a faucet and she has the worst cough ever. Last night i went to a movie with my SIL and didn't get home until 1:15am. Leah was awake with Matt. Apparently something ate her socks (that she never had on) and she was on a serious mission to find out what. Around 1:30 i took her in to read a story then started to cuddle. She fell asleep so fast but each time i would lay her in her bed she'd wake up in a coughing fit. So we ended up "sleeping" in the chair. Every 20-30 min she'd wake up coughing. So, that was fun.
All day she just wanted to cuddle, watch movies and read her favorite book. 'Mommy Is A Soft Warm Kiss'.
A page from her book: "Mommy is my noodle soup when i am sick in bed. She stays with me and reads me books and cools my achey head." <3
She slept a little on and off this evening. I hope she goes to bed at a reasonable time tonight. Mama needs some sleep for this week ahead.
My guys are both sick too. The littlest was up coughing half the night. And yesterday I attempted to watch FOUR kids. Lol. Two under one, I might add. All of them sick with the same cold and cough. It wasn't fun at all!
