Germs

Our little munchkin is sick for the first time and I am hating it!!!!!! He has an upper respiratory infection and he is miserable! Poor baby is congested and coughing and can't breathe out of his nose which makes him SO mad because that means no paci....and let me tell you, the child LOVES his paci's! But he still manages to smile and laugh and play with the doggies and babble mamamamama da-da-da-da-da all day! I love hearing it even if he has no idea what he's saying! lol ..It just doesn't seem like he will be 6 months old on the 19th :(

So many people seem to be sick, and it really grosses me out to think about all the germs floating around everywhere. I didn't ever used to think about that, but now it's on my mind everytime I touch something...weird! I have been following this blog ( http://laylagrace.org/ )for awhile now. The entire blog will make you smile, giggle, and bawl your eyes out. Atleast I always do. Sweet Layla Grace lost her battle with cancer early yesterday morning :(. After seeing the message that she had passed, I cried and had to go hug and kiss my sweet baby boy. Life is so precious and can be taken away in the blink of an eye. She touched so many lives in her short time on Earth! May God bless her parents and sisters. I can't even begin to imagine the loss of a child! ... I love this little quote, which will be what I paint on my next canvas.. "Be a best friend - tell the truth - overuse 'I love you' - go to work - do your best - don't outsmart your common sense - never let your praying knees get lazy - and LOVE LIKE CRAZY"

My family will be here in 5 days!!!! I am so excited! I have missed my daddy and nephews so, so , so SO much these last 3 months and I know Gage is going to LOVE having the boys here. He thinks other babies/kids are the funniest. He just laughs and 'talks' to them regardless who they are. We will be making a trip to Texas in July, August and September and then of course at Christmas. I can't wait to get back home and see everyone! We are really missing Texas lately...but of course, who couldn't! :)

I should know a decision on surgery by Friday...woooo hooooo!! Lately I feel SO exhausted. Sleep comes very rare for me these days. I can't ever get comfortable at night, I toss and turn and ache and get mad all through the night, and then by the time 7 rolls around Gagers is up and ready to play..Only for a couple of hours usually, by 9 he is pooped and takes a 2 hour nap! Hope everyone has a wonderful, fun-filled, SUNNY weekend ...even though tomorrow is only Thursday :)
