my life

wow. life.

life is a mess. a fun mess, but a mess.

last week wyatt came down with the stomach bug AGAIN and jack was out of town...of course.

I worked from 12-8:30 Wednesday and thursday morning he started throwing up...I was convinced someone had a voodoo doll of me and was sticking needles in me left and right.

the thing is, wyatt wasn't pitiful. he would throw up and move on. I love that about kids. BUT I was worried it would run through Lawton, myself, etc. I just sat and waited.

one thing I want to make sure I never forget is that wyatt twirls his hair when he is soothing himself. this was in my bed after he threw up Thursday night all over his bed and he was watching tv, twirling his hair. so sweet....

 

the reason I feel like a voodoo doll has a hold of me is this was us last weekend.

 again, jack was out of town.

I had to take him to the urgent care for his breathing. his oxygen was 92....the lowest it has ever gone, even with him having strider and croup before.

so, wyatt got his first breathing treatment. been there, done that and it ain't fun. we were both sweating and exhausted. my parents came over that night to help me out and he was so much better.

the night before we were at the corners society party which is so much fun! BUT again, I am doomed. I took Wyatt's temp right before we left and it was 102 and I just couldn't relax.

3 years prior, we were called by our sitter one hour after we got to the even because Lawton had the throw up bug. I walked in and throw up was all over my sitter, the floor, etc.

seriously???!!!

BUT, I had a few hours to enjoy a few drinks (jack enjoyed himself a LOT more than I did ;)

and friends. AND get dressed up for a change.

back to business.

wyatt was all good by Friday but we all took it easy. daddy got home around 10pm Friday night and

I took off Saturday morning.... 

 for heaven.

my mom called me a few weeks ago and said we had to get away for a girls trip.

I was game.

so, to the umstead we headed. we shopped, checked in, had a massage, a facial, wine, room service, a movie and I slept through the night in over a year. my mom had to wake me up! heaven! then luxury pedicures sudnay morning, outlet shopping on the way home and home at 6pm.

it was incredible and so needed for the both of us.

I was so sacred that i would be at home sick missing out on this special trip but I was spared thank the Lord!!

jack had the kids and I think he ate out every meal. my friend Katie sent me this pic:

love that he took my diaper bag. and yes, this is how we have to carry wyatt most everywhere. he throws tantrums whenever he has to leave or we pick him up. he is WILD. runs everywhere you are not. runs from you. the kid doesn't stop and will never sit still except for nap and bedtime. that's it. otherwise, he is on the move and into EVERYTHING.

wild child!!!!

what you don't see is that Lawton was probably listening and getting in the car and buckling himself. he is the sane one....... right now ;)



boys.
