Things got worse and she didn't sleep hardly at all last night. She was having a hard time breathing and was whining and crying all night because she felt so bad poor baby. I was able to rock her to sleep a few times but it was short lived. I had to put saline drops in her nose and it kept running for hours and I would try to suck it out but it wasn't working that good. Of course, she thought I was the devil after using the nose sucker on her. Way to bond mom!
So I was exhausted by this morning and decided to not go to work but to take her to the doctor instead. Diagnoses: She has a cold/fever and allergies. They cultured her eye to make sure she didn't have pink eye too. If she didn't think I was the devil with the nose sucker, she did now with having to hold her down to get the eye culture.
It's 11:10 pm and she finally is asleep but I don't know for how long. I'm going to bed to try to get a few hours of shut eye before I have to get up again.
Please pray that Rick and I don't get sick too. Savannah already has it.
Motherhood: It can't be fun all the time.

Poor baby! So glad you got her to the doctor today. I hope she's feeling better soon, and Savannah, too!
Prayers going your way
I hope she gets feeling better soon. I am right there with you -loving on Josiah with a fever all day. I just can't help but think as I sit here exhausted, how thankful we need to be that we finally can be there for them when they are sick and need their mommies the most to hold them and comfort them. Praise Jesus that we get that job and they no longer have to comfort themselves when they are sick.
awwwww, I hope she feels better soon. Get some rest, mama, every time she is able to. Juice, vitamins.
Peace
I hope you are all feeling better soon. I LOVE the comic strip. Too true...
Poor little baby. I hope she feels better soon! I also love the strip.
poor baby! and poor mama! it's hard to stay up all night taking care of a little one! but, like joy said, what a blessing it is to have the privilege to do so. i was thinking last night as i was falling asleep that i feel so blessed to be able to take care of my kiddos.
oh and the comic is hilarious!!!! thanks for posting.
hang in there, mama!
Feel better baby girl & mama. Ayana is SO incredibly beautiful it seems even sadder than she's sick (because her smile could light up 1/2 of Detroit!)
I'm sorry she is sick today, but glad you get a day at home with her. I hope she feels better this weekend because I'm sure you have the cutest Easter dress EVAH picked out for her, and I want to see it!
Poor Ayana! Feel better soon. Hope the germies stay away from mommy and daddy!
Poor girl! That has to be miserable. Hoping she feels better soon!
I'm so sorry Ayana is not feeling well. I hope she feels better soon.
Poor thing-both of you! I hope you all feel better soon and are able to get some much needed rest!
LOVE the cartoon...that is so fitting! I hope Ayana & Savvy both get to feeling better soon. Poor girls, that doesn't sound like fun at all! We are praying for healthy days. LOVE YOU!
PS...4 more days :)
