Peter's 35th

Yesterday Kai Boy woke up throwing up. It was Peter's birthday. But Peter, having worked the night before and having school at 2pm, was tired so we didn't make a huge day of it. Kai kept getting sick throughout the day. We gave Peter some birthday balloons and I made him chow fun for dinner.

At right around 10pm me, Ryenne, and Peter all got sick. So we were up all night throwing up and feeling miserable. Fortunately Cruz must have realized how awful we all felt and only got up once to nurse.

Today we were planning on having a great dinner to celebrate Peter's birthday, but we were all feeling too miserable to do anything. A big, huge thanks to Pops for going to the store to buy us Gatorade and Chicken Noodle Soup!!!

I'm hoping for a good night's sleep tonight. It's so hard to be a mom AND be sick. Everyone still depends on me for all the "mom duties", including Peter.

We spread out a quilt on the living room floor and we were all laying on it. Cruz was army crawling all over the living room. Kai Boy came and laid on me and said, "Wuv you Mama" and all the feelings of being crazy tired and sick melted away for that moment.
