Picture Shortage, Sorry

Grace has a black eye.

I LOVE this!



First, sorry for lack of pictures. Second, I still love you for reading my garbley gook. The week started out with a trip to the doctors for Grace. She came home with a ear infection and a double eye infection. I never even heard of an eye infection, for future reference that means that instead of snot coming out of her nose, it is coming our of her eyes. Gross I know! Wednesday we visited the doctor again, this time with Jennifer, she too has a ear infection and a sinus infection. Hold on, it gets better.
Because I have been worried and concentrating on the girls and getting them back to healthy, I let myself go. I ignored my aches and pains, but at night I could feel it all over, I don't think I really slept for 3 days. So this morning I spent searching for a doctor to go to for myself. I was so frustrated and exhausted of not feeling well I finally just went home and started crying in Ryan's arms, I just wanted to feel better. Mid afternoon, my doctor came through and I was in and out of the office in 10 minutes, but she did yell at me for not coming in more. I have medicine, I can breath out of my nose, and I have the BEST doctor ever!!! It turns out I have a combo of ears, sinus and throat. Life is good in the Henry house, or should I say life is germy!!
I usually will not get meds if I don't think it is necessary. I will allow a few days to fight off the sickness and it usually works. The girls are a whole different story, they are little, I just want them out of pain so they can be happy!! I wait as long as I can before I take them in, but pain is just not on my wish list for them.
It's amazing how Mom's push through pain to get the job done. I will not lie, we didn't eat very healthy, I didn't do normal nightly baths, but they were loved and given what they needed and wanted. It was one week that was painful, but I am ever great full to have two beautiful and now healthy girls! I am a blessed and happy mom!
