Well, I suppose I should try to post something in the month of March, huh? The problem is...I just don't have much to say, or at least nothing that anyone else would really care about. Then again, that's never stopped me before.
I haven't been posting much because the "A" key on our laptop keyboard was broken off making it quite difficult to type. (Why does this never happen to the "Page up" key? So far, we have broken the "o" and "a" keys on two different keyboards. Now the third one is installed and hopefully this one will last.
I had considered trying to post something yesterday, but alas...the best laid plans always fall through. Emily woke up coughing and then by noon was puking. Thankfully she really hadn't had anything to eat since dinner the night before so while she still felt miserable most of the day, she didn't have a lot in her tummy to get out. However, she still has a fever (in fact, it's higher today) and I know she still doesn't feel great. So far, she says her tummy feels better today and that all the "ickies" are gone, but that doesn't necessarily mean we're out of the woods yet. She's currently napping, but if she wakes up with the same (or higher) fever, then a trip to the doctor's office might be necessary. I really hope not though. Em hasn't really had any fevers of note before, so this is new territory for me.
So anyhow, that's the scoop here. Nothing any fun going on, but it could be worse. Yesterday was worse...so hopefully we're headed in the right direction at least. Bear with me...I'll be back when I can!

It's s g d t h ve y u b ck!
(Just thought I'd empathize with your missing 'a' and 'o' keys...)
I have heard that the pukies are surfacing again. I avoided them the first time and hope to avoid them this time as well! But it's still good to hear from you!!!
You beat me to it Skye!
Any-who, glad to see you're posting. I'm going to get back in the grove in the next few days. Lot's to tell and my "whine-o-gram" inbox is overflowing.
Saw on MSN that your baby was sick. Hope things are better today. We've been living on a BRAT diet around several times too many this winter. Hang in there...spring is just around the corner! (((hugs))
Thanks ladies! It's good to be back.
Emily is still not herself, but I'm hoping she's on the mend. Her fever spiked yesterday afternoon and she was just miserable so we went to the doctor after calling and explaining. Thankfully, she hasn't had anymore vomitting since Tuesday, but she does still have some fever and a bad cough...all of which led the doctor to the diagnosis of croup.
Which is worse at night...and it was. I slept with Em on the spare bed last night to keep an eye on her. (I use the term "slept" very loosely, though.) It was a long night, but today she seems a little bit spunkier so I'm hoping she'll try to eat something more substantial and that I can get her to take her medicine. Normally she takes it without a fight, but last night she was having none of it.
Oh well....maybe today will be better! Thanks for thinking of us. I promise I'll post again when I can.
