Year 2 – Week 1 – Day 5

I guess yesterday was just the “eye of the storm” when it comes to being sick. Both boys had a pretty bad day and I am just feeling overwhelmed and exhausted. Trevor doesn’t seem to have a runny nose as bad now but he was rubbing his head or maybe his ears or maybe his teeth. I couldn’t tell what was bothering him. He cried pretty much all day unless I carried him everywhere I went, and he is just too heavy!

Brendan was miserable, he just was coughing and gagging and spitting up slime non stop so the loud suction machines were constantly running and his alarms were going off like crazy. That is enough to make anyone insane. He had a nurse here today or else I would have probably collapsed in a heap of frustration. It is enough that I worried about him all day. I wish I could make him feel better.

Brendan had physical therapy today but that was just a big fail. We had to reschedule. His PT worked with him a few minutes and said that Brendan really needs to work on his arm strength. He will have lots of push ups to do when he feels better.

Trevor is briefly entertained by watching the dogs eat breakfast.

We got a package with a bunch more new birthday toys today, but neither of the boys were interested in playing too much.

Trevor just wants me to pick him up so he tries to climb up my legs.

Brendan doesn’t want anything to do with a new toy or the camera

We did get a little halloween package from Aunt Letty today, and that caught Brendan’s interest for a moment. I am sure he will play with them more later!

Trevor thought about playing with the Halloween beanies

But he would rather get picked up

“Spill proof bowl, that is a good joke!” says Trevor. He emptied half of it on my lap and down the couch.

One thought on “Year 2 – Week 1 – Day 5

  1. Hope you get well soon, little boys. I wish I could be there to hold you and cuddle you to help Mommy make you feel better.
    I’m sending lots of healing hugs and kisses. I love you both very much.
