My mood matches the weather today!!!

So after a glorious warm sunny week, this is what we have today! Yes, those are snowflakes you can barely see...Grrr!!!!

Now most of you know how easily I get cold..But I had SUCH a good attitude about winter this year! The snow was lovely, the sky was lovely, and I was happy. We had gorgeous days like this that made me enjoy the season..



However, I am now OFFICIALLY over winter and this weather is bringing me down!
So this week Andy threw up a little Tuesday, was fine Wednesday, had a little diarrheah on Thursday, and then a lot of ear tugging on Saturday, and literally minutes before we all headed to church today he threw up again! So soon I will be taking him to yet ANOTHER PM pediatrics visit to see if he has this 3rd ear infection in 3 months...It wouldn't be so bad if it weren't for the fact that he has been sick for 90% of these last 2 months...I am also scared that this is a new trend of monthly ear infections...I thought I was fine but then at church today I was telling my neighbor and I started to tear up! It is very frustrating! Soon though good weather will be here to stay and we'll figure all this out and he'll be back to normal..The sun will come out, tomorrow, bet your bottom dollar that tomorrow....There'll be suunn!!! ha ha ha! Now you all have that song in your head..You are welcome. :)

Poor Andy and poor mommy! Hope things do get better and just remember...snow never sticks around very long in March.

I was sorry to hear about Andy again. I hope the Dr. can figure out what is going on.....poor guy.

How old is Andy?
I think those times when sickness plagues, are no good.
My mom would tell me to open a window to get fresh air into the house (even when it is cold). So that the sickness air will be replaced with fresh air. Also my mom would tell me to turn the furnace down (especially at night), it tends to dry out our membranes and then we tend to get sick.
Is this the last thing you wanted to hear? When I have gone through those times, I find myself muttering and scowling a lot.
You are so cute, I hope the upside comes sooner than later.

Poor Andy I can only imagine how hard it has been on him and you. It will get better I promise. When Carter was about 18 month's old the doctor counted for us and Carter had had 13 sinus infections. It was a hard time to see him so sick and then all the specialist, and then several surgeries and a trip to more specialist when he burned his nose, and then more specialist because of his toes. It was a hard time for us. But it does get better. I even think Carter is a stronger, well adjusted kid because of it. Hang in there, it you ever need to vent or cry I am here. Oh, have you tried running a humidifier, especially in Andy's room at night. It helps a lot and the sound of the humidifier is calming and helps them sleep.

The poor little guy! Ear infections are the worst. I can wait for the sun to come back. I've got my sunblock ready! So, HURRY UP SUN!!!

Thanks everyone for the kind words of support. The weird thing is he's been acting normal again, and his ears looked fine on Sunday night, but now he has a goopy eye and I'm worried it's pink eye! Ha! It's always something! And yes, we do use a humidifier quite a bit, thanks Rach, and Gina, I turned the heat down the other night,except for me turning it down is like 70...hee hee. I feel loved that you all are leaving such kind encouraging comments. Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
