Truthfully, toddlers don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t care if you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re sick. And, it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s been a rough couple of weeks around this household! It all started when we went home to NC. Marley, Ethan, and Abbey were all sick and had trips to the urgent care. The next week, Payton and I were under the weather. Last weekend, Randy joined in and had a whole weekend of feeling absolutely horrible. I decided for a second helping and have been sick this whole week. Ugh. Thankfully, I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m feeling much better today\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6maybe the plague is leaving??<\/p>\n
I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m so glad that Lainey has avoided ALL of this so far, and pray that she stays well. And honestly, she\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s been great. The other kids have been great helpers, playing with her when we couldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t. She\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s also started playing more with her toys lately and having fewer breakdowns, which has definitely made this week easier than it could have been. God in his wisdom also saw fit to make sure that Randy and I were NOT sick at the same time.<\/p>\n
Here are a few pictures that we managed to take in between feeling cruddy\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6<\/p>\n
