But just barely.

  Thank you all for your get well thoughts. They seem to be working. Shenzie, while not completely recovered, seems to be doing better. Her breathing is much less labored and the nebulizer seems to help. She has MUCH more energy than she should considering how sick she is. Albuterol is like baby crack. She gets these huge bursts of energy after her treatments that crack me up!  Maybe I need to take some.

  Heaten still has a cold, but no RSV so hallalujah! His moods are improving slowly, but surely. He laughed and laughed yesterday…and we laughed and laughed with him…until my throat was even more raw. I don’t think I’ve ever had such a bad cold. Or maybe it’s because when I used to get sick I could actually laze around and sleep it off. Not so much anymore. Even though Jeff has been home (thank God!) it is still full time work trying to keep the babies seperated, give Shenzie her breathing treatments, and keep them occupied when they are fussy and sick all the while coughing and sneezing up a storm of my own.

  I feel like I am in survival mode. Everyday I think…if I can just make it through today then tomorrow will be better. I’m still waiting on the tomorrows getting better however. I feel like I want to run away for a couple of days and sleep, watch TV, read, and do nothing at all. Sad, but true. There are no sick days away from being a mommy. 

  On to bigger and better things. Shenzie now has TWO teeth. She grew another one last night sometime. Along with her new tooth is more motion. She now army spins and scoots in circles. She rolls to where she wants to get and can pretty much cross a room rolling and army scooting her way. Watch out world, here she comes!
