I've been wanting to blog for the last couple weeks, but it just seems like one thing after another keeps happening. For instance 2 weekends ago we were cleaning the church building and Meghan found a bottle of hand sanitizer on the bottom shelf of the pulpit and had it in it her mouth, on her shirt, and on her face. Off to the ER we went since we had no idea how much she had ingested. After 3 sticks to draw her blood, the blood alcohol test came back close to 0, so she ate very little, but she definitely had it in her mouth by the way she was pulling at her tongue...
Jase started out with what I thought was allergies a couple weeks ago (itchy nose and eyes, sneezing, nasal drainage), but allergy meds aren't helping at all now, so I think it may have changed to a head cold.
Then last Thursday my throat got a little sore. We headed up to Chicago Friday afternoon to meet Joe's sister and her family at a hotel and to swap babysitting while each couple went to the temple (pool pics in another post). I felt progressively worse after a night of sleep in the hotel room's king bed (all four of us in it after Jase fell off the pull out at 11:30p, and nonstop tossing and turning by the kids, along with the accompanied knees and elbows in the side and back).
Now I feel like I'm hacking up a lung every 10-15 minutes, can't breathe through my nose, and wish I didn't have to do anything (but alas today was Father's day, so I wanted to make Joe feel special and have some good food for us adults, since the kids just want mac 'n cheese and hotdogs anyway).
The kids have fought nonstop today - they just can't play together AT.ALL today, so it has been one VERY.LONG.DAY.
And Joe isn't feeling greatest either, as of Saturday night.
Oh, and did I mention that Meghan picked up ringworm from the hotel pool area.
Yeah, my life is sooo not cool right now - anybody want to switch?

So sorry, let me know if I can help with anything.
While Jacob was gone this last week, the last night Anna was sooooo clingy and cried nonstop for over an hour so, I let her "fall asleep" in our bed for a few hours so I could at least lay down without constant crying... elbows, knees, constant movement were the result. I'm not sure which is worse. I feel for you! I hope things get back to "normal" and you get some rest, and relaxation!
Ohh- I have totally been there! But I have noticed that usually after you have a rough week like that, the next week something awesome usually happens. Good luck!
