I Need a Break!

Greg has been out of town since Thursday and we're going to pick him up tonight. Yes, I've taken the opportunity to have a lot of fun with various girls' nights (which I'll post about later!) but I'm ready to have some help with these kids!

Since he left, here's a synopsis of the goings-on in the home:
1. Thursday night Lauren woke up at 4am and puked dog food until 6am. I didn't know she had eaten any dog food.
2. Friday night Lauren started running a fever and had about 6 dirty diapers.
3. Friday night Noah pooped a big one in the toilet--yay!
4. Saturday morning Noah pooped a big on in his pants. Yuck.
5. Saturday afternoon Kona peed an enormous pee spot in the middle of Lauren's cream-white carpet. I have Resolved until I'm high from the fumes, and it's still a faint yellow.
6. Sunday morning (today) Lauren ran a fever again.
7. ALSO this morning, Noah's asthma cough acted up so much that he gagged and dry-heaved for several hours and has had to use his respirator machine twice already.
8. And finally this afternoon Lauren fell (or was pushed?) off the slide in the back yard and got a bloody nose and mouth.

I'm not being cynical or ungrateful for my wonderful children mind you, I'm just flippin' tired! Leaving now to pick up my better half. I think I'll bring him a sandwich before dumping the kids on him for the rest of the night...or week.

Ugh!

When it rains, it poors, huh?!

Hopefully Greg was able to relieve you for a little "me" time!

Wow, I say even if you don't bring him the sandwich, you deserve a break.

"Puked dog food..." followed by "I didn't know Lauren had eaten dog food..." made me laugh out loud. Thanks for the laughs (even if they were kind of gross laughs). ;)
