Sick Kids

Andrew is feeling better. He slept through the night. It was so nice to sleep in my bed and actually sleep. His fever is gone. His nose is draining like a faucet. He seems a little happier today.

Tyler woke up with a bumpy rash. I am taking him to the doctor in just a few minutes to have it looked at. Hopefully it isn’t anything to worry about. Crossing my fingers.

Today is my Dad’s birthday. Happy 56th Dad.

Sick Baby Update

I took Andrew to the doctor today. He has an ear infection in both ears and an upper RI. They have come to the conclusion that my little guy has Asthma. Every time he gets a cold he ends up getting an upper RI. So her will have to have a breathing treatment once every day. When he is sick he has to have it four times a day. They gave him an antibiotic and a steroid. Hopefully he will start feeling better tomorrow. He has been so unhappy. His nose has been running. He is congested. And his fever just doesn’t want to go completely away. The last two nights have been rough for us both. Tuesday evening I had him sleeping in his infant car seat so that he was propped up. He woke up crying about once an hour. I had to lay on the floor next to his seat and rock him back to sleep. Last night he didn’t want to go to sleep. It was 1:30am before he fell asleep. Then he woke up at 4:30 and then again at 7:30. We slept on the living room floor until 4:30 and then I put him in his car seat and I got on the couch. We fell asleep watching TV. Hopefully tonight will be better. My back is killing me. I am so ready for a full nights sleep.

Christmas Stocking

I made this stocking for my secret Santa partner. I used the free instruction from Eleanor Burns site. It was very easy. It isn’t huge. About 8 inches long I think.  I’m not worried about her seeing it. She doesn’t know I am her partner. LOL. I love secrets.

I also made this tissue holder. I got the fabric at Hancock. There fall fabric was 75% off. So I only paid $2.25 for a yard. Yeah.

Our Christmas Tree

Here is our tree. We decorated it Saturday. Believe it or not I still have ornaments in the box. We have so many. This year the kids, Tim, and my dad put most of the ornaments on. I did a little rearranging once it was over.

Yes those boxes under the tree are empty. It looks so much better with stuff under it.

Here is a picture of my cranky baby. He is getting three teeth on the top. I keep calling him rolie polie. He is rolling all over the place. But he doesn’t want to roll back the other way.
