Sick Again

Our house is laden with sickness. Noelle started out Friday evening with a fever and it carried throughout the weekend. We had a bunch of projects planned but Noelle wanted nothing but Mommy and Daddy by her side to tend to her every whim. How could we tear ourselves away from her? Max came down with a fever as well on Monday or Tuesday (Since Friday all the days are strung together. Days and nights are the same because both children are up all the time). Noelle's fever subsided but she is now coughing and sneezing and barely has a voice. Maximilian got thrush again so he is fussy and it makes it hard for him to nurse. I think we are on the tail end of this, thank God.

Saturday we had a very large storm come through the area. Tom and I have never seen so much hail continuously fall at one time. It was crazy. Noelle was very scared of the "under" and Max slept through the whole thing.

While playing in Noelle's room with both children Noelle decided to dress up as a princess. She put on her ensemble and declared, "I'm going to a party. I'm going to kiss boys!!". I have NO idea where this came from but it had me laughing hysterically and running to get my phone to tell Tom. He was not amused and promptly told me to tell her that no, she could not kiss any boys!

Max has almost reached the six month mark. He has taken a love toward bitter biscuits. I hate the immense clean up, but enjoy watching him devour the thing. Part of me likes to give them to him just to see how big of a mess he can indeed create. In a few days I will put a more detailed post dedicated to his six months, but for now all is good and he is a wonderful little man!

I hope everyone is getting better soon. Noelle is going to be a heartbreaker, if not Tom will be breaking something else on those boys. I am looking forward to reading Max's 6 month updates.
