Whine Fest

Can I whine for a second? It's my blog so I guess I can whine if I want to! So you know Rory was sick during fall break. And then took weeks to actually sleep and stop coughing. Then I was sick last week. What I haven't mentioned is that I was diagnosed with a chronic stomach problem a couple of weeks ago. One that is apparently going to keep on coming and make life miserable. So I finally felt better yesterday after nearly a week of a bad cold/cough. However, by the end of yesterday, the stomach problem was back in full force, and today Rory woke up with yet another cough and a fever. Seriously, I just want to get rid of the sickness in this house. It's hard to carry on life as normal when you or your 4-year old don't feel well. And I realize it could be much worse. But it's still not fun.

Okay, done whining for a while.

Two milestones in the last week:

Rory put her hair in a ponytail all by herself. Not that I'm about to let her take over her own hairstyling anytime soon, but she was one seriously proud 4 year old.

Camden got teary-eyed at the ending of a movie. It seems age 7 is bringing about some sensitive moments in our typically not-sensitive child.

And doesn't this face just make you smile?
