So Monday was supposed to be Nicklaus;s first day at day care after being home and out of the NICU however, I think the fear of school must of subconsciously weakened his immune system (not likely) and we found him sick - listless with congestion (RSV symptoms). How terrible it is to hear a little one cough like that and not eat, not smile, just sleep.. so we kept him home, I too was home sick with you guessed it - a relapse of that nasty stomach Flu that won't seem to leave our house. And to top it off Kylie got a touch of it followed by dad- So the day was complete. Now it is Wednesday and we are all doing much better- tired but that is nothing new these days. Life with a newborn, amazing but exhausting!
I try to type in between crys.. and here goes one...ahh the joys of being needed. The four year old does not seem to understand if her feet are hot she can take off her own socks! Back to bed she goes. Cute.
Well life has been hectic as usual, between coming home from the hospital and trying to recover from my infections, taking care of the kids, all of us being run down and sick we had the holiday to attend to. I also had to return back to work in January so I wasn't home that long with Nick. It was a blessing that my husband was able to stay home with him and share that bond. A mom always has a bond with a child, but a dad I think has to work a little bit harder sometimes. They have to learn what comes natural to a mother. Of course I am speaking in most cases- It is an amazing thing- motherhood. Nothing that anyone can put into words and trying never seems to give it justice. I won't even try- who am I kidding I am sure at some point I'll squeeze it in haha
