Busy Busy

The last couple of weeks have been busy. Last week Cayden had a speech appointment,
I had a hair appointment, had to get the house ready for company-SIL
LaDessa was coming for the weekend, had to get ready to go out of town on my
retreat which also consisted of getting together my scrap stuff and I never like
doing that. I am sooooo ready to get that room in order!!! Well wouldn't you know it, just
as I am needing to finish the laundry the washer craps out on me!! It ended up being 2 separate
problems and not worth fixing. It was only 5 maybe 6 years old. They just dont make things
to last anymore. Well being me, this meant that I had to get a washer & dryer set or else they
wouldn't match. Cody was working nights and sleeping days so we didn't have time to start the search before I went out of town Friday morning. LaDessa arrived Thursday night, thanks to her for driving 5+ hours to help Cody with the boys. Went to Stolen Moments Inn through
Sunday afternoon. I got home around 530-6 and before I could even pull in the drive Cody and the boys were outside ready to go start the search. We ended up at Lowe's Monday and Heather helped us pick out a beautiful washer & dryer set. They were delivered on Tuesday morning and so the laundry began.
That evening Cody had to worked and Colton was on the fussy side. He started running a temp before bed and didn't sleep much that night. By 7am his temp had reach over 103. Needless to say I got worried. He was lifeless, red, burning up, heavy breathing. Poor little guy. He didn't even have the energy to walk or even crawl. You know it's bad if Cody stayed up-which he did. When the nurses' line finally called me back his temp had went down some and she suggested we wait to call in the dr office when they opened. That wasn't until 830 and then I couldn't get through then they couldn't see him till 415 so I left a message for the nurse and she got us in at 930. the test came back negative for flu & streep so dr said he
just had a viral infection. Tylenol every 4 hours, like I had been doing. He woke up by 1030p last night and I ended up putting him in bed with me for the night. he is sooooo much better today, a little diarrhea but otherwise walking all over, playing and happy. THank goodness my little guy is better and praying that he continues to improve.
Now to catch up on the normal every day stuff...laundry, dishes, cleaning.
The joys of life!

Isn't he cute?!?! He sooo desperately wants Daisy Mae to sit with him but she just doesn't want anything to do with that. I can't blame her, her LUVS her a little to ruff. He pulls on her legs to get her to move where he wants her to, pulls on her hair, the typical things. I think?!?
He was soooo happy that she sat with him to watch Blues Clues. She was such
a good girl. It lasted maybe 10 minutes and it was over. He cried wanting her to come
back but she chose to sit on the back porch instead. ha!
I love it when my boys make each other laugh. They had been playing together all day, some
good, some bad. But they were in the LR wrestling around and had gotten
so tickled with each other. I ran and got my *new* camera, pulled the boys
together and luckly got a pic in before they were off to play again.
In case you can't read Cayden's shirt clearly it reads, "100% GOOD, 10% of the time"
This is sooooo true!! But the 10% of the time is soooo worth
it.
