Life Lately

this week we... 

PEAKS:

• I'm constantly surrounded by the most amazing people, so kind and completely selfless. Monday and Tuesday Fallon watched my little ones so that I could focus on that endless pile of clean clothes I've been avoiding. Kim invited me over Wednesday so that I could get out of the house and helped tire out my kiddos. and Crystal came over this morning and helped me with the rest of the laundry! What amazing friends I have!
• I got rid of a lot of my accessories at our dinner social Friday night. It was kind of hard letting go of some things, but once I did it turned out being pretty liberating.
• I made brownies! ...I've been on a junk food frenzy lately.

PITS:

• Lincoln and Ella both have an ear infection and I know I do too I just don't want to make a trip to the doctors for myself with these two.
• The kids have been really sick and vomiting all weekend. Friday night, while at a dinner social, Ella threw up all over my friends floor. Then as we were driving  home Lincoln threw up in the car. They slept for a couple hours, then once I finally went to bed the madness continued. Poor Ella woke up with a bad fever and threw up all over me and my bed and pillows. We got in the bath and she cooled down a bit. She was completely restless so we went down stairs at 1:30 am and played around a bit. I finally got her to sleep around 2:45 and right as I'm sneaking into bed, my poor Lincoln woke up with a high fever as well. He was also restless so we went down stairs for a little. His fever diminished because he is so good about taking his yummy tasting Tylenol, and he went back to sleep. Ella still had a fever and was up the rest of the night. Needless to say, I was up all night alternating between them and it doesn't make it easier considering I've been sick these past few weeks as well.
• This has been another very long week for me... I just want my husband home!
• I made brownies... I've been on a junk food frenzy lately...
