….than seeing your child in pain or discomfort.
Poor baby B was diagnosed with an upper respiratory tract infection today. He woke up suddenly with a barking, wheezing cough yesterday afternoon and trouble breathing. I spent most of last night awake with him asleep in my arms. Although the infection is not anything severe and apparently caused by a basic virus, it has caused my little man’s air passages to swell. So, we have to do nebulizer breathing treatments. I say it again – there is no greater pain or sadness than seeing your child in pain or discomfort. I pray he feels much better soon….which he should, thank God. And thank you to those of you who have sent well wishes our way on Twitter and Facebook.

Gooood morning! I’m trying to stay chipper and welcome Monday with a smile. It has its good points…like starting a week off fresh. Right? Right! Catching up from the weekend?
So after my fantabulous long run on Saturday morning, a busy day awaited me. Funny how that always happens on Saturdays. Weekends with down time come very rarely in these parts, but that’s okay. Especially when the busy schedule includes a little bit of pampering for moi.
I got my hair all beautified up!
It needed a cut pretty badly since I try to stretch out my cuts to save some money. I love the cut and think it looks great, but I wanted a bit more of a noticeable side bang. I thought it looked shortened enough when at the salon, but now I think I wanted more of a difference than my previous cut. I may see if I can go back to get her to snip more off. You know, if my laziness doesn’t get the best of me trekking back out to the salon. And if its a free touch up since my money tree has gone into hiding.
From my hair appointment I had to immediately pick up Peter and the kids to go to another kid party. Yes, we attend one of these shin-digs basically every month. Yes, we have many friends with kids. Yes, we love every bit of toddler party we visit.




Yes, birthday cake never gets old. Just like time with this crew never gets old. It’s free fun!
Once the party ended we settled into the relaxing part of our weekend. We just had our typical Saturday low-key, at-home, save-the-dough date of pizza, ice-cream, and a Redbox movie. We chose No Strings Attached and liked it well enough. Predictable rom-com is basically the only description it needs. We had originally thought about taking Makenzie bowling as well this weekend…but then we checked the prices. It would have cost about $40 for a few games! Ridiculous! When did bowling get so expensive? Now, where is that money tree?
- What is something you came across recently and were shocked at its price?
