RSV=Really Stupid Virus

Bear has RSV.... and bronchitis.... and a double ear infection.
He is miserable.
I am tired.
When I hear him cough it makes me cringe.


Poor Bebe....


Now all my kids are coughing.
I am feeling sorry for myself.
Especially because today is my birthday.


Ahhhh, the birthday of a mother.
But you know what?
I wouldn't trade it.
I love my coughin' kiddos in all their snotted up, sniffly, hacking glory..... but could someone kindly send me some earplugs?

Thanks :)

Happy Birthday to you! Poor kids, that totally stinks! I recall my anniversary in December turned out like that too. Yeah the most miserable day/evening/night for all of us! If it makes you feel any better, I have had my hands in Coastens diarrhea up to my elbows (literally) for the past week. Oh the joys of motherhood, and all the things we so lovingly do for our children, even when its on important days! I hope your day gets a little better:) Happy B-Day

Madison is starting to complain of an ear ache hope she doesn't get an ear infection. I'm sorry all your kids are sick :( I hope you still had a good birthday! Things will get better once your settled in your new place! then you can call me very day till you find new friends hehe!

Not fun! This sounds like one of those "remember when" times...the type that in a few years you'll look back and say "remember when" and you'll sigh and wonder how you survived and yet somehow it'll be sweet to you then! :)
