Sick of the weather, and just sick

Last week started out a great week.

Tuesday night my niece and nephew came to stay with us for their spring break. We love having them come to stay with us, but I think Carter thinks they come just to play with him. He loves his cousin so much.

Thursday night brought a hard thing that this mom for sure doesn't like to deal with, a sick baby. My world just falls apart when one of the boys are sick, I feel so helpless and useless. I'm sure many moms feel the same, or at least I hope so and that I'm not alone. I took Mason to Kaiser Urgent Care, waited an hour and found out that he just had a sore throat and fever. The advise nurse said a possible bladder infection so I was very relieved to hear that is was just a sore throat, and not strep. We just got Carter over strep, still not sure how he got it, or how its caught but its over and I'm happy.....well was happy. 

Swimming, hot dog roast, birthday cake (very small piece for me) and good family time the weekend was full of, until Saturday night. I was suddenly hit with a sore throat and headache. Sunday morning I didn't feel much better, thankfully my husband came home much earlier then expected because the boat his grandpa's boat started taking on water 15 mins after they were out. Sad start to the season but very funny because this is not the first time this has happened, just a new boat. And since I'm allergic to seafood, it was nice not to have a smelly husband upon his return. 

Laying in bed all day Sunday did not bring much refreshment since this morning my throat was even more on fire. But I did sleep much better with only one wake up call from Mason, on top of his cold his molars are working in. After about 30 mins rocking together, with no songs, he was ready to go back to bed. 

As the morning has gone by Carter's cheeks got pinker and pinker, and he was calm which is very out of the norm for him. Fighting him to check his temperature; it read 100.4 . Yea for mommy, another sicky kid. Again I feel helpless with a sick kid, medicine and lots of loves, what can we do?

My poor husband has to come home to a sick wife, and kid after work very hard all day and take care of us. This is going to be very interesting since the house is my domain. As I'm positive he will do a great job, he is just not very domestic.

Hope all and everyone is well in your home. 

Have a great week!
