Today...


Today, Holynd woke up with a runny nose. I didn't really worry about it. She acted fine.
After her nap, she was no longer fine. She had goopey eyes, scratchy throat and a cough. I sat her on the counter and began to look through my medicine cabinet for tylenol and eye drops.
She decided it would a perfect time to take a one bite out of each peach in the fruit bowl.
Then, she decided that peaches were NOT good and spit out everything.
Awesome.
Later on, Holynd kept whining for cereal. Since Matt was working late and Holynd didn't feel good, I figured cereal for dinner was ok for tonight. Well, because of Holynd's awful mood, she didn't want to sit in her high chair. So, I wrapped her in a blanket, sat her next to me on the couch and spoon-fed her cereal. (She must be really sick if she let me feed her). All was fine until she sneezed and cereal/snot went everywhere, including on Sloane, who was sitting in her chair, right in the line of fire. Sloane got upset and started to cry. Holynd, thinking she had done something really wrong, started to cry too. Sloane got over it quickly, but Holynd had to be given candy to be calmed down.
Dearest Husband,
We need more fruit.
(See Above).
I also need a date night.
Love,
Wife
P.S. Our kids are even cute when they're sick and/or covered in snotty cereal.
