Under the weather, in a few different ways.

Posted on Feb 08 in Life in Evansville, parenting, personal storiesby TalinaPrint

We all just got back from the doctor. Bit the bullet and went in this morning after E and I once again came down with the same symptoms we initially had on the drive back from Arizona. Sniffy/ runny nose, sore throat, cough…

It’s just a cold and not strep, thankfully. The way I am feeling reminds me of coming down with strep years ago. I was so scared that E was suffering from it. It’s a relief to know it’s just a silly cold.

So, we are all sicky-poo here… Actually, N is well he is a lucky duck. Supposedly we are getting another winter storm here today. By morning we will be under 2-4 inches of snow. That on top of having a cold means I need to make some chicken and dumplings for dinner and just cuddle with E in bed while we can. If she’ll let me.

We are supposed to go teach the Winter Guard kids tomorrow but I suspect 2-4 inches might result in another snow day for the school district, which means no teaching for us. The kids need as much practice time as they can get but E and I could sure use some recuperation days too.

Oops, I hear E. She’s up from her cat nap. Time for some nursing and cuddling time again! Will blog more later.

  Aww feel better!! Did you end up getting those snow days? I heard that the Indianapolis School District approved an hour delay for Monday morning because they anticipated winning the Super Bowl the night before. Jinx much?

  We squirt saline solution up our baby’s nose while she’s slightly on her side (baby version of the neti pot) and wait 15 minutes before using this (http://www.nosefrida.com/). It freaks some people out, but it works wonders and allows the baby to sleep. After purchasing 4 different snot suckers that I was dissatisfied with, I broke down and bought. So glad I did!
