Sickies

Kayla has been sick AGAIN for the past week! she has had a really bad cough and a runny nose, which of course makes me feel like a horrible mom! I know kids get sick, and when someone at home gets sick another one is bound to get the same bug (its a vicious cycle,but I guess as a mom your always going to blame yourself and feel guilty.

Being under the weather has also made her loose her appetite and she has not really been wanting to drink milk from the bottle(I still nurse her in the mornings and at night), so being at work sitting behind the computer while knowing that my baby has barely drank any milk and is waiting for mommy to get home because at this point the only way to get her to eat is from me nursing her (I guess is the comfort) hasnt helped me feel any better.

On Thursday after work as I was driving to my mom's to get Kayla, I started having a horrible headache and noticed that I was feeling warm, I ignored it since I had to get Kayla then get Austin. Well later that night after the kids were asleep I still felt very achy and sick, so I took my temp and what do you know, I had a temp of 101!! there's that vicious cycle again!!.

So now Kayla is feeling better but I have been sick all weekend!!
:(
which has been no fun, luckily Justin and Austin have been really good about taking care of their girls.


On a not very sick note, Kayla has been standing on her own, for about 15-20 seconds which is the longest she's gone without holding onto anything.. Yay Kayla!!!

Oh and today is our niece Taylor's Birthday!!!
Happy Birthday Taylor
