A missing post

Ok Everyone, I deleted my Valentine's Day post with pictures of Max having his first bath, because Eric thought it was bad to have those pictures on my blog. Go figure, but I wanted to put some of the pictures from after his bath back on, so here they are in a different post, and for anyone who didn't see the post before, it was just me wishing everyone a Happy Valentine's Day and the pictures.

Doesn't he look thoughtful

Gotta love the new Spiderman outfit.

Happy President's Day!

Well I just had a little bit of time and it is so nice to have Eric off from school for one day even though I know he will be studying anyway. Our Valentine's Day was nothing special we didn't go out and we didn't get each other gifts, but Eric did get me a card. He said just being with me this year was enough. The girly part of me felt really bad that I didn't even get him a card, since I was so sick last week. Oh well. Max has had a lot of congestion and I am probably going to break out the humidifier. Poor little guy, it's so hard to see him sick when he is so small. Well that's all, hope everyone is enjoying being lazy and having the day off today like we are, but if your not have a happy President's day anyway.

First Bath's and Being Sick

OK, everyone, well I'm sorry I haven't posted anything new in about a week. I don't know how you guys keep this thing up and where you find the time to post, but for me, I am lucky to find any time at all to sit and type these things up and still keep a clean house with 3 kids and having to nurse every 2-3 hours a day. I have a good excuse this week though, in my last post you all got my little rant on my being sick, well it got worse and I had like 3 days of fever and chills and the works. I am telling you mom's don't get to rest. My own mother used to say that a lot and now I totally agree with her on that. I probably would have been better sooner if I was one of those moms who took medication while nursing, but I just keep it to Tylenol which doesn't do much. I am really grateful for the priesthood because without Eric to give me a blessing, I don't think I could have gotten over it so fast. It was also nice that Haley had Friday off from school. The highlights of my week consisted of getting to go to Sacrament Meeting last week (we haven't been to church in almost a month, so it really was a highlight even if we didn't stay through all the meetings), giving Max his very first real bath in a tub which I posted pictures of, and helping Haley with Valentine cards to hand out at her school party. Other than that I was just laying around a lot and feeling miserable. Someone once told me that if mom is miserable then everyone is, and I think to some extent it is true. Luckily my kids didn't get fever and chills. Alex is pretty much over his cold and Max is a little congested, but hopefully he is on the up. Keep us in your prayers OK, and I'll try to keep up with the posting.

Blessing Date Change

Ok, so that last blog was really long, and if anyone read it I am sorry it was so long, but if you know me, I am a talker. Anyway just an update, the blessing date for Max got moved to the 22nd because my dad couldn't make it earlier. It worked out good, because I have been really sick. I think I got double whammied with sickness. I had a cold which was mostly a really bad cough just a few days before Max was born and about a week after he was due I was starting to feel better. Then it seemed like a few days after I was starting to feel better, I got worse. Another cough, and my left eye turned all red and crusty, then I got some back aches and Eric said I felt kind of warm to him so I may have had a slight fever too. Anyway I am just trying to get well enough to go to church, but I should be better by the 22nd. Luckily Max seems ok, he may be a tiny bit congested, but he seems ok, and poor Alex got it, but oh well, what can I do.
