Because you can't call you children and tell them you're sick...

well yesterday i got sick and had a fever all through the night and all sorts of aches and pains, of course Jord wasn't around so i had a crapy sleep and got woken up this morning by my sweet little Lexi at about 6:25am, thanks honey! she was so super sweet though, she lay in bed with me for about half an hour and every few minutes would whisper something in my ear..."mommy me big girl now", "mommy can me pay wit your hair?" and so on. I felt crapy still but the fever was gone by now and Sophia was awake so no more being lazy.Throughout the day i did what any mom has to do, sick or not, because like i mentioned in the title, you can't call your children and tell them you're sick, the day must go on! so i got to painting our doors for downstairs that will thankfully be getting installed next week, ran errands in wpg (so thankfully with Bo since it was raining and hailing there) and my fever annoyingly decided to come back in the afternoon but i chose to suck-it-up and i still did rolling races in the backyard with Ryland (i even won one!) but i gracefully bowed out of the running races today since the rolling did a number on my head and he nicely allowed me to be the spectaor and the person who does the 'ready, set, BANG'.The most exciting part of today was training my precious little SoBia Belle to... pee on the potty! Horray for you honey! Im so proud, she's only 14 months and already going on the potty!! we spent so much time today sitting in the bathroom and the third time she did it after about 2 minutes or so. it was so awesome! the times she didn't do anything she laughed and laughed at silly games we played, she had snack and juice while siting there and of course Ry and Lex put on amazingly entertaining shows for us in the bathtub. What a great day today , sick and all!
