By The Numbers

My weekend, by the numbers...

7 bouts of vomit
1 direct hit on Mommy
2 kids with fevers
102 the average temperature of aforementioned 2
72 hours of whining
5 hours of sleep for Mommy
3 nights in which those 5 hours were accrued
3 movies which acted as babysitters
1 heavenly grocery store trip alone

1 baby mouth discovered full of dog food
0 children who live in this house who have never eaten dog food
1 baby kick felt!
1 "maybe that was just gas..."


All are healthy and happy now, and Mommy is taking the day off!

I totally remember YOUR comment to me about eating dog food.

It really calmed me.

Hope everyone feels better soon. CONGRATS on the baby kicking. You soon will be adding to your weekend numbers.

Good for you!

I think the whining got to me the most when the kids were sick. Maybe that is why my mom used to quarantine me to my room when I got sick. She said it was to keep my germs in there but...I wonder.

Kathryn said...

Yikes. You need a nap! I hope you get some time to relax. Sounds like a crazy weekend!

Christine said...

I hope things are better today! Yowsa...few things are tougher than sick kiddos!

Marmarbug said...

Wow that list made me sleepy! I just found your blog and I am loving your stuff!

krissy said...

Good Golly, you deserve the day off......

And only 3 movies as babysitters. Ha, I have been known to break down the dvd player by burning through so many dvd's. And I only have one kid.

Shameful, eh?

Huckdoll said...

Wow...and you come through it all with such a wonderfully positive attitude. Many props to you, Jenni!

It all sounds bad, but honestly it is the 72 hours of whining that would have pushed me over the edge.

Sandy C. said...

Oh man! You certainly deserve to take a day off.

Hope this weekend is far less eventful.

MamaGeek said...

Oh good for you! W-H-E-W!

Joyce said...

What a time you've had. :(
Hope everyone stays well for a long, long time. :)

Jules said...
