Poor Sick Dekker

With all this time that Brady has had off work, I finally decided we should get out of the house and maybe pull a spontaneous road trip. We talked about it yesterday morning and decided it could be great! We would figure out where to go, leave and get there on Thursday, and drive home on Sunday. A nice long weekend away. However, Dekker woke up sooo sick! Coughing, snotty, raspy, and just so sad 🙁 He cries so much. Its awful. So road trip plans got canned.

Today we figured we should at least go to the city. We need to make a trip in before the end of the week, and this morning Dekker seemed so much more bright and with it. Yesterday we would have never made it to the city, but today seemed more hopeful. This time I screwed it up. When we got up to get Dekker and found that he seemed well rested and happy, I headed to the closet to get dressed. But I didn’t make it there. I got so lightheaded I went back to our bed and took a breather. Back to the closet, quickly back to bed. Finally, I saw on the floor and looked in my closet until I had picked out what I thought I might wear. I got up in enough time to grab fresh underwear before I had to go lay back in bed. Sooo dizzy! Not dizzy like the room was spinning, but I guess more just faint. So I was back in bed feeling like crap, when Dekker burst out crying. From nothing. Just feeling sick after all. Poor little boy. Some medicine seemed to clear him up for a while but not long enough to attempt a city trip. Not an ideal day for it at all. So we spent another day holed up in the house, all feeling a bit cruddy and pouty.

Everyone better feel on top of the world by tomorrow because we have to make it to the city! No questions asked! I can only be out of peanut butter for so long.

Awwww…….let me know and I’ll sure make you a delivery. Seriously. Nothing worse than being early pregnant and not having what you crave for! Well, maybe I can think of two things worse, but still . . .

Oh Willa, you are so sweet! I may let you know if we really can’t get out the door tomorrow 🙂 Normally, I wouldn’t but we’re our of all our yummy fresh things! Thanks for the offer my friend. Hopefully I won’t have to take you up on it!

Thanks for praying! We’ll be fine, but these stretches are kind of rough. Feels like every day Brady is home I’m super sick, and then the day he goes to work, I’m completely fine. Its good for me that it works out that way, but probably sucks for him.

Awwwwww……poor little family. You guys just take good care of yourselves. Glad Brady can be home. It’s better when you can be together on days like today. Hope all is much better tomorrow. I love you!
