All of us have been sick at least once during these past two weeks. I'm just thankful that now I'm the only one sick, and more importantly, my girls are feeling better. We've had Croup, colds, teething fevers, sinus infections and lots of runny noses. Lainey also had her last laser treatment on her lip this week (Hooray!!) I'm airing out the house now, washing the sheets and getting some soup ready for dinner. Doug took the girls to Gigi and Babu's house for a sleepover, and while I had big plans to check lots of boxes on my ever growing "To-do" list, I can't seem to even muster up the energy to take a shower. Being sick when you have to stay at home and take care of two crazy girls is no fun and this Mama is worn out. I did find the energy to do a little camera dumping, so here is a quick recap from the last two weeks.
Poor Bug was sick on Valentine's Day, so she had to miss her class party. Just so you have an idea of how big a deal this was, she's been talking about it since December, and had her class Valentine's ready almost a month early. The little girls loves Valentine's Day (hugs, kisses, "I love yous", cards, candy. This holiday was practically invented just for her!!) and she was majorly bummed. So...Mommy and the grandparents may have gone a little overboard with the Valentine's Day treats to lift her spirits.
They always say, if you don't like the weather in Virginia, just wait a day. That's been true lately! We've had sunny 70 degree 'playground' days and snowy, rainy, sleetly 'stay inside in your jammies' days. On one of the better days, Gigi and Babu came to visit for Babu's birthday. We drove by our new house (we certainly must seem like stalkers to the people living there because we must drive by it at least five times a week!) and then we hit up our church playground for some playtime and fresh air. Hailey is super excited that her favorite "bumpy" slide is going to be walking distance from her new house! If only we could move in now. These next two months are going to be torture!!!
My Funny Little Valentine's.

She always has a smile on her face when Gigi and Babu are around. (That's because they are always doing something either loud, wild or messy!) |
