filled with romance and love and oodles of kisses and hugs.. or i mean filled with dr. appt's., rashes, high fevers, puke, runny poop and no stinkin' sleep. wow.. for those of you out there dreaming of having children and thinking it won't change life much.. think again. it changes everything. but usually in a good way. but to our dismay this was as i would define it.. "a rough weekend". it started friday with an appt. to get elly m.'s but looked at. she had a pretty gross looking rash on her butt and then it moved into sat. ruthie waking up with a swollen face on saturday.. and going to bed that night with elly m. throwing up all over the place... three loads of laundry later.. we were tucked in tight to an all night throw up session. i am sure i have ti coming soon, but miserable. i have yet to see elly m. sleep this much her entire life. she is exhausted. so also on sunday.. ruthie's eyes were pretty swollen, so i took her to urgent care. extremely dry skin causes eyes to swell.....who would of known???? my goodness i am so thankful to have jonathan.. i couldn't of done this weekend without him. he is such a help when stuff like this comes up... so today is monday and we start all over again.. apply cream three or 5 times daily and clean up puke as it happens... maybe this next weekend will be better.

Oh no! I am so sorry! We understand, and don't want any of it ever again...wishful thinking
wow. you're so right about kids changing everything. what a small statement about the reality of it!!..but right again about how it's usually good..there are just times like the ones you're talking about that push you right up to the edge of the 'crazies'!!!:) glad you're hangin' in there, though!
