Sick Day

Saturday morning we woke up bright and early….but not in a good way, little Mr. Chrispy was screaming and crying from his crib, not a normal thing for him to do. As I grabbed him sweat was dripping down his face, poor baby had an awful fever. We spend most of our morning laying in bed between Momma and Dadda doing nothing more than snuggling and rubbing his back. I felt so bad for the little man, I mean, it's not like he can tell me what exactly hurts or how I can fix it, so I just do everything that I would do for myself in this situation.

He managed to eat some toast which I think helped and some fluids later on for a "late" breakfast. By lunch time he seemed to be doing a little better, medicine finally was working its magic and his fever was down. After a super long nap, it was back just to claim another episode of sweating and crying. Chrispy spent most of the day laying in Dadda's arms while I whipped up some chicken noodle soup to cure our issues….all of them ;)

Starting with this one…..my house still not completely unpacked from our move from Japan to Ohio…

So while my soup was cooking on the stove, I made myself useful and cleared out the kitchen completely, cleaned and sanitized all three bathrooms in our house, did two loads of laundry, and managed to finish hanging up some pictures in the house. 

The soup usually works its magic on it's own until the part of shredding the chicken off the bone comes in, than my hands had to get dirty, but in a good way :)

Poor baby. He was like this most of the day….he just looks miserable.

After about three, or four, bowls of chicken noodle soup, we all started feeling a little better. The yummy broth, carrots, celery, noodles, and chicken are little miracle workers.

Unfortunately, Chrispy woke up still sick Sunday morning, even vomited for the first time ever all over his breakfast, but at least we have a warm house and lots of good eats to keep us happy here…..as happy as we can be. Today will be a constant battle of the hubby and I not getting sick and keeping Chrispy comfortable. To top off the wonderful weekend more snow is now falling in Ohio on top of the other "mountains" left behind from all the other snow days….at least we have no where to be :)

Have a Happy Weekend Y'all!
