An Experience I Would Rather Not Have

So this week I have learned first hand what it takes to mother a sick child. Wow - it is hard! Poor little Abby can't breathe well through her nose, so she has wanted to sleep propped up against mommy. It is so precious and so agonizing at the same time. I don't sleep well in a recliner with a sick baby rubbing her slimy snot on me, yet I cherish the extra cuddles. Poor Eugene has also been sick this week with some sort of stomach flu thing. I am really hoping he and Abby don't trade illnesses! I have managed to stay well apart from a slightly sore throat and major sleep deprivation. Eugene has been doing some laundry and house pick-up despite how he feels - have I mentioned how wonderful he is? Well, I am headed to bed and hoping that tonight I might actually get to sleep, and maybe even in my own bed!

I am sad this picture blurred. Abby vomited again tonight and after I came back from cleaning up she was laying in Daddy's lap cooing at him and trying to pick out his eyes!

So, as I was blogging Abby woke up crying, but she is back to sleep now, in her crib and it is only 10:45! Looks like I get to sleep tonight - at least for a while!
