It's amazing how your life can be anything you want on your blog. I love blogs. Don't want people to know you had a bad day? Don't write about it. Invent perfect children and lots of money, just blog about it and maybe it will really happen! There are lots of "mommy blogs" i read once or twice and then quit b/c they aren't real. They are usually ones with kids as young and as close together as mine and you can't find one post about how sometimes being a parent REALLY sucks. I leave their blog immediately b/c I know that woman is living in a dream world.
So to blow up my dream world of the perfect sunday...
It's just about midnight and so far already I have been puked on twice while trying to give the feverish Parker medicine she refuses to take. I have rocked her back to sleep three times and fed Grayson twice. I still have work to finish so I'm trying to stay awake and make it happen. Parker is now in our bed with Chris which means I can't just bring Gray into our bed when he eats around 2am. It's going to be a long long night. And I should have guessed something was wrong with her (she has strep I found out tonight at the urgent care) when during a time out yesterday she got a pillow and this is what I found on my parent's dining room floor:
Poor kid!
I just hate looking down the barrel of a long night. It makes me want to keep drinking soda and just pull an all nighter, but I know I can't do that anymore. I can survive on a little sleep but not on no sleep.
Anyway, just didn't want you to think life was perfect! Sick kids and late nights and work. Luckily Chris has agreed to take a sick day tomorrow to help me with the kids...thanks C!
Here's to a fever-free Monday morning!
