Brody Lately

I feel life has been in a whirl wind lately. The month of June and these first weeks of July have been super busy. Well on June 4th, Brody started daycare. I was so nervous the night before I barely slept. Brody was in home daycare that was ran by my sweet friend Jessica. With all the changes that happen in life it was time for Brody to be able to interact with more kids. The first day was awful. I cried all the way to work and called twice to check on Brody and see how he was doing. He did cry on and off most of the first day. Brody is very shy around new people and it takes him a while to open up. His teachers have been so patience and loving with him. I think it took him a good two weeks to get adjusted to the new routine. I love picking him up from daycare because i go in and get to watch what he is playing before he sees me, when he does see me he comes running for me to pick him up. It just melts my heart. For the last week has not cried when I drop him off, but has started to get excited. I wish with all my heart that i could stay at home with Brody, but i know he is well taken care of and has a great time at school.

Brody had his first case of RSV on June 24th. On Friday Brody wasn't acting like himself. Saturday he still acting fussy and was drooling alot. He felt warm so we took his temp several times and the thermometer showed no temp. I gave him some Tylenol that afternoon anyway because i thought he might be teething and he perked up. While that night came and Brody got a cough and coughed all night long. Well we got up Sunday morning and headed to the Dr ( I am so thankful our Dr is open on weekends! ) When we got to the office his temp was 102. I knew he had a temp but our horrible thermometer was not working right. I felt so bad!!! The nurse did let me know that the forehead thermometer they use was on sale at Walgreens for $50.00. So we picked that up along with some more infants Advil & juice. It reads the temp in like 3 secs, it 's wonderful, some of the best money we have ever spent. The Dr. tested Brody for strep and RSV. So he had to to have a thoart swab, nose swab, and finger prick. = (  Well the results came back RSV but Dr. Hoy said his lungs sounded good and he should be fine in a few days. Thank goodness B's fever broke late Sunday night. Chris stayed home with him Monday, and i  stayed home Tuesday and Wednesday. He went back to school on Thursday feeling  much better!! I hate when my little fella is sick but thankful i could be off with him to help him get better.

Pumpkin Patch 2020

 We visited our local pumpkin patch yesterday. We were not able to go last year, so we were so happy to go this year. We were blessed with a beautiful sunny 70 degree day. It was very bright outside so it was hard to keep our eyes open for pictures. Haha.  We had so much fun in the corn maze, walking through the sunflower field, and playing in the big hay stack. We got to share some of our favorite foods boiled peanuts and nachos. Before we left we rode the hayride to pick our pumpkins and finished up the day with a funnel cake. I am so thankful for these sweet memories with my family. We will carve our pumpkins tonight and get ourselves prepped for the week ahead. I hope you have a wonderful week! Hope 

First Day of School 2020

 On Monday my babies started back to school. In these uncertain times we had different options on how we would begin school this year. We could do virtual public school, go back to the traditional classroom, or homeschool. At this point my husband and I decided that it would be best for our kiddos to be back in the traditional classroom. There isn't an easy choice about school in these crazy times. Our school is smaller, they are wearing masks, and taking social distancing precautions. We have prayed about our decision and feel we did what is best for our family. I am praying for the parents out there that are having to make choices about what to for school this year, please know I respect whatever choice you make and I know it's not easy.   How did my babies grow up so fast!?! Brody's first last day of elementary school. 4th grade Evie's first day of 2nd grade.  I hope you all have a wonderful week! Hope 

Just a Few Things I Am Thankful For

 Just a few things I am thankful for Polka dot rain boots and pretty leaves while running errands. Pretty fall flowers from my sweet hubby. A cute hat for days I don't want to fix my hair. Also a happy puppy waiting for her people to get out of school.  I hope your week is going wonderfully! Hope
