Brielle's prayer for us to get "all better" has been a constant at our house for a week now. We are trying to recover.
I have spent the past few days trying to get the house all better - tons of laundry, cleaning bathrooms, having a plumber install a new toilet (we had pee water leaking from the upstairs toilet to the downstairs ceiling), dusting, vacuuming, etc. etc.
We also have been trying to get our sick girls all better. We literally have not left the house since coming home from Ava's blessing on Sunday. We got a pretty good snow storm, so it is cold and snowy outside and Brie, Ava and I have stayed nice and warm and sick inside. Brielle got a cough and fever on Thanksgiving. She is up and playing and back to being miss chatty, but still coughing. Ava is so sick though. It makes me so sad to see my little tiny 2 month old sick. She has a fever, cheeks are flushed, nose stuffed up and a horrible cough. Brie didn't get even the slightest bit sick until she was 9 months old and that was an ear infection. I worry about my baby being so small and being sick. I am just so glad that it hasn't progressed to real croup and she is still breathing well.
Hopefully we are all better soon.
(P.S. Brie has been saying all of our prayers lately. She does a much better job of not bouncing around doing it when she is strapped in at the dinner table. Although she cracks up laughing every time she sees herself bounce around during this video. She thinks it is just hilarious. We think it is hilarious that she uses the "safe" sign from baseball to finish the prayer.))
