We have survived RSV, pneumonia, virus', bacterial infections, and the SWINE FLU!!!! Dear Lord help us!
It started with Reagan and RSV and ended up with momma having the flu. Thank goodness Honey could come and help for a few days. I stayed in bed for three days and ultimately had a psychotic reaction to an antibiotic I was given and ended up in the ER. Not fun, people. Not fun at all!
Scott was a trooper. He and my mom cared for all of us. I do think the night he took me to the ER though I saw real fear in his eyes. I remember him saying to me that I couldn't check out on him because he needed me to help him raise these children!!!!
Today we are grateful for health.
We are also thankful for growth. Here's an update on the kids.
Samuel is a curious little monster. He is like a sponge right now soaking up things around him. His new favorite things to do are to watch baseball and golf. He will tell me "I watch Tiger Wood play golf, Mommy. He good." Everything is "mines" and he doesn't hesitate to assert his needs/wants. Bedtime is better and we are all grateful for that. He still loves on Reagan giving LOTS of kisses. At night he prays before our evening meal. Sam is very sensitive. I have noticed lately that he has a strong desire to please Scott and I and will look almost dejected if he senses that we are unhappy with him. Parenting right now involves a lot of postive feedback, high fives and hugs. He's wearing 3T shirts and 18 month pants (we have no bum to speak of!).
Reagan is our little doll. She is so good natured. She sleeps in her crib and I often wake to find her talking with herself. She has developed more of a personality these last few weeks and won't hesitate to help you know what she wants! Last week at church she cried in the nursery so they came and got me. I brought her up to our adult class and she was as content as could be to sit on my lap. Maybe she has a little bit of her mama in her, too! She's already thinking she's too big for that nursey! She is mesmerized by Sam. She laughs and giggles at almost everything he does. She's sitting up now, has two teeth, and about a day away from crawling. Last night she was able to get her arms and legs to work in the right order just briefly.
Baby #3 is...LOL...JUST KIDDING!!!!
Ok...I just had a mild heart attack thinking about baby #3. :)
