Oh Noes We've Got the Sickies!

Thursday went as usual, onovon still had a runny nose and a cough but nothing more serious than that. Well, in the middle of the night, he woke up and was rubbing on his left ear, saying it hurt. So I decided to call when we got up and take him in. I woke up to go pee around 5:30 and he woke up too, we were both exhausted, but wide awake. He picked a movie and we went into the 'jungle room' to lay on the couch and watch it. Around 8:20 or so we both fell back asleep for an hour. I called the ped when we got up and they said I could bring him in at 10:30. We changed and I scarfed a piece of toast and we were on our way (half an hour ish from the peds office).

When we got there, I had to pee, of course. D had went right before we left the house and was still wearing a dry pull-up from bedtime, so when he said he didn't have to go, I believed him. We sit back down in the waiting room, D on my lap. & all of a sudden I feel this hot spot on my leg.. I thought it was his hands at first because they'd been hot off and on the whole time he was sick (along with his feet). Well, it wasn't. He peed. Apparently his peepee was positioned weirdly pointing toward the leg of the pull-up because the pull-up was NO where near full, and yet it went through the pull-up and his pants and onto mine. So, there we are at the dr's office, with one pant leg of mine wet through with pee, and the opposite leg of D's backside wet with pee.

Since A. He was wearing a pull-up and B. He hasn't had any accidents in a couple weeks, I didn't have a change of clothes for him in the car. Luckily, it's been super nice here lately and after leaving the Dr.'s office both of us were dry by the time we got to Walmart.

Oh Walmart. I'm NEVER filling prescriptions there again. It was a 45 minute wait, which turned into over an hour because of the ridiculous lines at the pharmacy (I think because it was Friday?). 38 weeks pregnant, sick, with a sick 2yo... NOT a pleasant experience.

We took a nap when we got home after eating chicken noodle soup, and then just bummed around the house since we were both feeling crappy.

Today, we wayy slept in. I didn't even realize it until we were finished eating 'breakfast' and I looked at the clock on the oven... It read 11:28... Ooops. Lol. I needed to make fudge today for the bake table at the churches dinner tonight, so I did that after we ate. I made a double batch (so ~3lbs) of chocolate peanut butter fudge. Then I felt the NEED to clean the kitchen, so I did all of the dishes (including those that couldn't be or didn't fit in the dishwasher!), cleaned off the table and counters, then swept AND mopped the whole downstairs (well where there is hardwood).

I felt accomplished, that put me at 2o'clock-ish. So I jumped in the shower, and now D is taking a tubby so his nose would run without that nasty saline spray. (Grama isn't here to hold him while I spray it up his nose, it's a 2 person job for sure).

Curly is coming over. (Well actually, Curly is now a no-haired kid... But, for the sake of less confusion, and the fact I'm in love with his curls... I'll continue to refer to him as Curly). We're going to take D for a walk in the woods for a while and then go to a chicken and biscuit dinner at the church. :) Probably watch a movie when we get back or something.

Or collapse from exhaustion, ya know whatever works.
