1. Netti pot: I'd never heard of this before a facebook plea for help with my sinus'. I went and bought this immediately. I'm not sure it worked since I couldn't even get it to flow at all. I was way too clogged up. At 8:30 am, my friend shopped by to give me oils to use on my sinus' and in the pot. This seemed to help things flow a little better. I'm so blessed with good friends.
2. A book to read: My friend borrowed my car yesterday and checked me out my book on reserve. I finished it in one day... lots of time to sit and lay around means lots of time to read. This friend also gave me a head massage to relieve some pain. SO sweet! I'm so blessed with good friends.
3. Usually I am really on top of the kitchen mess. A messy kitchen shows how awful I am feeling. Another friend dropped off some medicine late last night and offered to do my dishes. I was embarrassed and said no, but all day I wished I would've let her because the mess was overwhelming, disgusting and a cause for more headache. I'm so blessed with good friends.
4. Hallie decided to wear the top and skirt I made her last week. She looked so cute. Too bad no one saw her and too bad I was too sick to do her hair.
5. My bed... at least it was made right? I took 2 naps today! First when Mariah was sleeping I gave Hallie the leap pad, the kindle AND the ipod and slept. Then all 3 of us slept during 2nd nap. I was still tired all afternoon. I guess I really needed it.
6. My kids got to watch TV and get their own snacks (cereal)
7. Jackson talked me into a game of life which was torture for my headache. He was good enough to pick up all the toys on the floor to 'earn' playing time with me.
8. What happens when kids get their own snacks. I hate stepping on cereal on the floor. Big pet peeve! My cousin brought over dinner so I didn't have to cook. This was a LIFESAVER! I loved a hot meal without having to go through the pain of preparing it! I'm so blessed with good friends.
9. Mariah. Thankfully she is feeling better. I couldn't smell her stinky diapers, so I caused a bit of a diaper rash, but besides that she's been so pleasant and happy. I didn't breast feed at all today. Low milk supply and feeling crappy I just didn't want someone sucking the little life I had out of me.
10. Sleep time. Luckily Dave got home right at bedtime to help out. I love that Jackson falls asleep reading books every night.
11. Usually Hallie is up for much longer than Jackson, especially on days she takes a nap. Everyone in the house was asleep before Hallie tonight. She stays in her bed reading and singing until she falls asleep.
12. Sweet Mariah sleeping. She is not sleeping through the night yet, getting sick for me and her meant waking up with her. Usually she is up around 3 or 4 and again at 5 or 6. She goes right back to sleep after eating a bit. Hopefully, by 1-year-old she WILL be sleeping through the night.
