Sick days

It all started last Monday in the middle of the night. My Noni girl started throwing up at about 4am and continued to throw up every half hour or so until about 9am. It was our last day to see my in-laws while they were here visiting and we had to change plans a little.

Noni did so well with it, she just kept saying "I don't like being sick" "this is not fun" and "I don't like throwing up." So cute and so hard because there is only so much mama can do for her and she just doesn't understand why she feels like this. She gets really mellow and sweet when she is sick which is kind of nice.

She started doing much better by that night but the next morning she woke up with a stuffy nose. Which then proceeded to be a soar throat and then a full on cold. More change of plans and days at home. Being the close family that we are it was inevitable for Peter and I not to get it and by the weekend we both had it full on. Uhg. And it is lingering like crazy. Today is the first day that I feel good. Its still not 100% gone but I feel better. Its been an entire week and Noni is still coughing and sniffling. I think Peter is better but definitely still sniffly.

It has been 10 days in a row that I have been home. Now I have run small errands like grocery store, library, midwife appt, the necessities but no outings for pleasure. This is a big deal for me. Although I am beginning to crazy I have enjoyed my time at home. Forced or not. At the beginning when I wasn't sick I got a lot done. It's been good to have these days at home with my girls even though we are sick and a bit cranky at times, they find joy in simplest things.

Me and my sweet sweet girls!!!
