Update on the sickies

Noah

Noah is feeling much better. He’s on strong anti-inflammatory medication and it’s doing its job.

Someone mentioned it to me that it was quite cruel of me to make Noah bring me a diaper for Liliana when he was feeling so badly. Okay, so maybe that was a mistake. I can be a bad wife sometimes.

Liliana

So you didn’t know she was sick. Surprise!

On Thursday, her babysitter told me that she snuggled with her for half an hour. That was my first clue. Liliana does not snuggle. It goes against everything that she believes in. Thursday evening she had a fever, became whiny and did not want to be put down. That also is not I’m-so-independent-leave-me-alone baby.

Luckily, Noah has Fridays off so he could look after her while I worked yesterday. She pretty much cried, whined, snuggled, and slept the whole day. And had a fever and the runs. She did not want to eat. She also fell asleep in my arms and almost fell asleep in Noah’s arms. This has not happened since she was a newborn.

Today she’s a little better. This morning and she was still whiny, snuggly, sleepy and runny, but earlier this evening she actually went crawling and walking. Apparently she’s feeling a bit better.

I really don’t like it when my kids are sick, but I have to admit that I’m really enjoying the snuggle time I’m getting today.

We’re having about 25 people for dinner tomorrow night, so I’m hoping Lili’s feeling a lot better by then.

StumbleUpon It!

    Glad everyone is on the mend!

    And I agree, the bonus of sick kiddies are the great snuggles.

    At least there wasn’t a lot of poop involved :-)
    I hope everyone is one the mend (and I’ll double cross my fingers that you’re not next!)
