The first week of summer has come and gone and has left me completely exhausted. I still need to put on pictures from award ceremonies and recitals, but I am afraid I am going to whine a little first...
This week was crazy.
We had 6 (yes that number is SIX) doctor/therapy appointments. Almost all of them had all the kiddos in tow. We had 2 play dates, only 1 trip to the pool and 1 very sick baby. Devin has been very ill with a fever tapping out at 105. The fever lasted for 4 days and finally yesterday afternoon it broke. I took him into the doctor and he has (in her words) pussy blisters in his throat. That being said, he won't drink. He went a full 8 hours without peeing yesterday and we were worried about heading to the ER when he finally did. We have had to resort to syringing liquid into his mouth. I will wake him up at night and syringe water or liquid in his mouth (he fights me a whole lot less at 11pm when he is so tired). It has been miserable. He is miserable and he cries A LOT!
David and I did get out last night and went to dinner, which was fabulous, but we had to take the sick baby and ended up in the party room of the restaurant by ourselves because he was so disruptive...
BUT, today I actually went down to Nordstrom Cafe Bistro in the Galleria and had lunch with a friend. KID-LESS!! It was awesome. The food was amazing. I really think food tastes better when your mind isn't distracted in a thousand directions. I have not been away from everyone for soooo long, love you kids, but sometimes mommy has to step away. So, to sum up--long tiring week, but I ended it with a fun few hours of girl time and I am doing much better--now to go clean my house... :)

Being a mom is T-O-U-G-H! I'm sorry you had a rough week. One day at a time is what I have to tell myself sometimes! You are awesome though, and I know you are a wonderful momma! Glad you got some girl time in too! If you were here, we would totally go out! :) Good luck surviving the summer!
