Why is this day going so slow?
 

I just think i'm tired, Tuesday Micah got chicken poxs shots, very bad night, he had the runs, all over his bed :eek: so 11:00 at night had to stip his bed, and wash him down, finally got him back to bed at 1:00 am, then i had to get up for work at 4:00 am, finished scrubbing down his bed, put fresh sheets on it, he was in bed with daddy, changed our bed sheets before i went to work, ran home at lunch and mopped and threw in another load of clothes, when Daddy came home he took Micah outside so i can scrub the carpets oh there was poo everywhere.. then last night he woke up screaming at 10:30 didn't get him to bed until 11:30, i need some sleep, can't take these shots anymore he's just miserable.. I gave him Motrin last night and again this morning, The doctor said with the chicken poxs he might have a low grade fever and break out in a rash, poor little baby he is just miserable...

You poor thing! I remember those days well, don't know how we all survive them! I hope you get a nap today!

Thanks Teri, i wish i could take a nap, but i'm at work, then i have to run home and pick him up from the sitters, and my second shift starts ;) and that boy does not like being in the house, don't blame him, so i'll get him fed, clean a little, take him for a walk and play in his water/sand box i picked up yesterday, Dad has to finish building it today.. hopefully he goes to bed early, after he eats i'm going to give him anoter dose of Motrin, i think he's in pain still from them darn shoots.

ps. i think i had 6 cups of coffee so far and an iced coffee from Mcdonalds !!

Sorry you're going through all this. I honestly don't remember Ricky having a problem with his shots. I've been very blessed in so many ways with that young man.

I hope things settle down for you and Micah starts to feeling better soon.

Awww Thanks Janet, Yes i am Very blessed with Micah he is such a good baby..
But it was very hard last night holding him while he was crying you just feel so helpless, and i don't like feeling that way when it comes to Micah.. But i didn't know what else to do but hold him and rock him, walk hime.. we even took him outside.. nothing he just cryied himself back to sleep.

Janet, our children didn't have the chicken pox vaccine so we never dealt with this kind of reaction. It sounds like it would have been easier to just have the chicken pox!

Oh Diana he's miserable, then the Peditrican tells me a week to three weeks he might break out in a rash and have a mild fever... can't wait for that one !! oh boy.. and my friends want me to have another kid... no way !!!! Getting to old to pull all nighters and go to work the next day... i'm living on coffee, i even forgot to eat last night..

Poor little Micah! I hope he feels better very soon, and that you get a good nap.

Kiss his booboo for me.

So sorry you are going through this Haley. We all had to deal with some sickness when our children were small. Honestly, I don't remember it so much except the really scary high fever and the broken bone times. It's easier to remember the happier times, and believe it or not, I was considered one of those overprotective moms. No jump ropes (a friend who is a mortitian said lots of children accidently hang themselves with jump ropes), no trampolines, no 4 wheelers, and always bike and rollerblade helmets and pads.

Mine had the chicken pox vaccine, but when they were older than Micah, and did not have any side effects that I can remember. May have run a low grade fever, but not sure now.

Aww, Judy that is no problem girl, i'll give him tons of kisses for you in about 1/2 hour i'll be off of work :)

Hope Micah is feeling better.

He's the same today! he had the runs twice this morning, i had to change him, was late for work, i hope the baby sitter don't have a ruff time with him today.
Poor baby...
