We are sick,
and it is really no fun at all.
really ridiculously runny noses...
nasty, chest- rattling coughs...
the occasional fever...
lost sense of smell...
foggy hearing...
oh, and did I mention runny noses and a bad cough?
On the 5th we took Maria in to get a chest x-ray because her cough was so bad, she doesn't have pneumonia.
I was hoping that this was all going to be over with by the time Cooper got here.
But it isn't gone yet... and he started coughing yesterday...
it makes all my mommy bones sick to hear him cough.
and to add to the pile, Maria has 3 more teeth coming in right now, perfect timing, hu?
Sleep is a rare commodity around here.
And because Maria feels so crappy she's having a hard time adjusting to having Cooper around. She's split probably 50/50 as to liking him or not. She's used to having me at her beck & call... but its darn near impossible to nurse one baby and play with the other at the same time.
Maria enjoys pointing out Cooper's body parts.... although we do try to keep her away from his head. She's really good with knee's and feet.
I'm excited for when we're all feeling better and can all interact more normally.
Because we have been so miserable we have not ventured out much this past week. We went to the pharmacy a few times, and to the grocery store.... but we've mostly just been hanging out at home.
With the exception of Sunday morning... we took a little field trip over to Sandy Point... We had a bad case of cabin fever and NEEDED to get out.
It was a beautiful morning... it was warm, and there wasn't much of a breeze.
Maria tried throwing rocks in the water....
and although she enjoyed herself tremendously she never threw them quite far enough to actually hit the water. So she got Daddy to help her.
She went for "walks" on the driftwood,
and decided to bury herself in a hole that she found.
And there were lots of times where she didn't want to walk so she cuddled with Daddy.
In the meantime I was taking pictures with this little sweetheart strapped to my chest.
He is such a special little boy. I'm SO incredibly glad that he's joined our family.
