My Past 2 Weeks!

So since Kynnedy had her six month shots, she hasn't been happy at all. She has had a fever, crabby you name it! Which makes mom really stressed out when Kyler only wants me and so does Kynnedy. When dad wants to take over the kids still don't want him which makes it hard on both of us, but we all know when your babies are sick mom is the only one that can make things feel better! Which I have been really crabby, I'm sure nobody wants to be around me (which I really appologize for), but one day it would be nice to have someone else in my shoes! They would crap, get up at 5, get yourself and 2 kids ready for daycare, drive 1/2 hour to drop them off, then drive a hour to work, work for 8 hours, then drive another hour home, pick 2 kids up, get home at 6 p.m. to cook dinner, clean up, do laundry, get kids baths and ready for bed. Try to do some laundry and what time do you get to sit and enjoy your kids? (okay I think I got the out of my system).

So last week took Kyler to Cardinal Glennon for his kidney stone tests. Then rush to Sunset Hills to take both kids to the doctor for doctor appointments for the thought of us going to Kansas City over last weekend to find out that Kyler has a sinus infection, and Kynnedy has an ear infection! Great crabby kids for the weekend with a long drive! So we decide not to go this weekend for Kynnedy had been running a fever of 102 for almost a week and still wasn't any better. So I was off on Tuesday, went in late on Wednesday and then was off on Friday. Calling the doctors office to see if there was something else besides the z-pack they can do for my poor baby girl that looked and felt horrible! NO nothing want to wait it out since it would be in her system for 10 days. So all weekend fever had the thought in the back of my head that she was just teething not feeling good. If she wasn't sitting on my lap, attached to me or sleeping she was crying! Really being stressed out with no alone time to even cry to think I would make myself feel better, or even trying to do something for myself except I have now learned how to play guitar hero while holding a kid! That's something! Huh? Actually no, but feel like I accomplished something.

So Monday all excited knowing that it was going to snow and I am off on Tuesday's I would be able to possibly go outside with Kyler to play in the snow while Kynnedy was napping (with monitor in tow). Nope Kynnedy started running a fever again! WTH? Anyways, call the doctor asked them if something else could be given to her or something she sounded, looked and felt like crap, my poor baby girl! Nope tell me that it is bad out and they are sorry, but she should be taken to the nearest emergency room by tonight! Great that is just lovely! So crying and all upset, I make my poor husband leave work to drive home in all the snow to come get us to turn around and drive back in it to take us to the hospital. We get there they do x-rays, and want to draw blood to do test, swab her for flu and rsv. I'm already upset for the thought of just having to take her to the hospital. X-rays go good, the swabs pissed her off big time. The blood work yeah GREAT, LOVELY the couldn't find a vein in her arms, hands, legs, feet. They stuck her 2 times in her feet. Then decide to get the doctor to see what to do (cause he wants to give her fluid for a urine sample and antibiotics thru an iv). He comes in and asks if he could try a vein on her head! WTH? What am I suppose to tell him no if they can't get any other vein to try and see what is wrong with my baby? So he freaking pokes her 3 times, finally gets it enough to draw blood, but isn't good enough to use for an iv. While wanting to pick my baby up off the bed the whole time cause she is screaming bloody murder, and being papoosed in so she wouldn't move enough. I liked to died, crying nurses asking me if I was okay. Thinking that I had been trhu this with Kyler I would be able to handle myself. While dad is trying to entertain Kyler! Great now what, we are keepers right? God bless Kyler for being so good the whole time! So decide after poking the poor girl 5 times to just give her an antibiotic shot in her leg! No daycare for 2 days and follow up with the doctor on Thursday! If her doctor releases her for daycare she can return on Friday. For the mention we get home at 11 p.m. last night. My baby girl slept thru the night, first time in I think a month. I woke up and felt like a new person! She is sitting on the floor playing toys all by herself!
So I don't feel so stressed out and the only thing different is that my baby girl is feeling better! And my husband went grocery shopping with me! HA!
