The Road To Mend

After too many days of not feeling good, doctor's appointments, hospitals, runny noses, breathing treatments, coughing fits, nasty medicine, & nasty RSV I think we are on the road to recovery!! I better knock on wood :) Today, for the 1st time in I don't even know how long, my baby put HIMSELF to sleep & is sleeping by HIMSELF like an angel :) Normally Carter is an angel, you lay him down ANYWHERE & he can put himself to sleep & sleep like a baby :) Well, this week something changed, poor little boy cried constantly for days, then he got a little better, but still had to be held ALL DAY!! It was like a blast from the past, because that was the 1st 4 months of Braiden's life! They say everything happens for a reason, maybe this happened to remind me not to take advantage of what an angel my Carter Bug is! OOH I love this little Carter Bug. G-Ma Jan got him this for Idaho!! TOO CUTE!

I am not used to holding him all day, while taking care of 2 others, wew it was fun while it lasted!! I got an arm workout :) But I am sooo sooo happy he is feeling better, the other 2 are almost as good as new also!! YEA!! Thank you everyone for your calls & concern! We have such a great family!!
My sweet little kids with there fishy masks on!! At 1st Alexee loved the treatments, I think she just wanted some attention, but she quickly got over that. Poor Braiden would say "medicine all gone, me done!" like 20 times a treatment! Looking at these pictures I feel so lucky to have healthy, happy children! I don't ever want to take advantage of that!

  2. Yay! I'm SO glad they are feeling better. That must have been pure hell. I'm so sorry you had to go through the emotional and physical drama. Poor little buggers. Good thing they have such a great Mama!!

  3. Yipee!!
    Once they get a clean bill of health Thursday I want to see them..I feel like it's been forever.
    Yes, it's so easy to take for granted the fact that we all have been blessed with healthy children..I couldn't even imagine..thanks, now my mind is wandering to places that will do nothing but give me an anxiety attack.
    Give the kids a BIG kiss from Marlee Moo and Auntie.
