it’s good to have a backup, for the backup

so much for staying a healthy household… i’m not naming names, but someone that i know got a 24-hour bug starting sunday night… amazingly, this was the FIRST time in almost 16-months that we’ve had to deal with vomiting and diarrhea at the same time… he never once cried or got upset, and even though he was still under the weather yesterday – he pretty much played all day and napped really well… he skipped dinner and was ravenous this morning and so far, no calls from daycare so i think he’s doing okay… i’m crossing my fingers that eric and i don’t get it before/on vacation, but if we do – at least it will be gone quickly…

the rest of the weekend came/went… on saturday – we had breakfast at our favorite diner and then the boys got their haircut… in the afternoon, eric and i worked on getting our bikes ready and installed the seat for deck, we can’t wait to try it out… on sunday – i did the usual cleaning, laundry, and grocery store, and then we ventured out to get deck a bike helmet and some new shoes… the kid has huge feet for such a little guy – 6W… geesh…

happy tuesday…

7 days later

i’m so thankful that after a week on antibiotics, i’m feeling like myself again… last weekend was pretty rough and up until wednesday i was still feeling under the weather, but am happy to report that i can breathe again, the pressure behind my eyes and cheeks has disappeared, and my teeth stop hurting (something that happens when i get a sinus infection)… deck’s cough has also gone away so for the time being – our family is healthy again! yay!

in less than a week, we’ll be heading to florida to stay with eric’s parents for a few days… they said it’s been in the mid- to high-70s and considering it’s finally gotten cold around here – that will be a welcome change… this weekend will be full of prepping stuff we need to take and digging out summer clothes (not something i’m looking forward too)… the boys also need haircuts and i need to take the little guy for new shoes since i’m pretty sure he’s going to outgrow his any day now… he has become fascinated with our shoes for some reason, and thinks it’s funny to put them on when we’re in the bedroom changing… seems like yesterday when i was putting on my mom’s shoes and trying to walk around, and now my son is doing the same thing…

we watched the ‘black swan’ last night which was an interesting movie… and am looking forward to the ‘walking dead’ coming back on sunday night… love me some zombies…

have a great weekend!

out of commission

sorry for the lack of posts, but i’ve been pretty sick for the last week and was finally diagnosed with a sinus infection this morning (i waited too long to go to the doctor)… with an RX in hand and 2 samples of flonase – i went to the store and loaded up for the weekend so i won’t have to deal with superbowl sunday… i really hope i’m feeling better by then and am looking forward to a semi-quiet weekend at home… only plans we have are getting deck measured for new shoes tomorrow with mom and that’s it… yay!

i hope to be back on my feet next week and until then, have a nice weekend…

happy friday!
