Sick mommy, sick monkey's = no fun for anyone!!

So i haven't been feeling well since we went to opening day on the first, in the beginning it started off as allergies and sinus issues and then it settled into my chest and throat and started to feel a lot less like allergies..... Yesterday i spent most of the day in bed, or asleep on the couch while Matt watched over the kiddos and i slept a little last night, i think Matt even put Preston in his bed after he ate in the middle of the night i don't really remember.  I coughed and coughed half of the night and couldn't sleep, after little man's middle of the night feeding... so today i woke up and coughed up a golf ball size piece of mucus and decided i needed to go to the dr.   After waiting in the dr's office for a few minutes i got to see my favorite doctor and he was quickly able to diagnose me.... BRONCHITIS, which is kinda what i thought all in all i spent over $100.00 today and i'm praying not to have to go through it all over again with Peyton.... please please please little girl do not get sick like mommy...

so onto the sick monkey's part, peyton has a fake cough and it was cute in the dr's office, she is a little congested and is having some allergy problems, she can have over the counter (the same stuff as before) and "remember to give her her allergy medicine every day" yea yea yea i know i just always forget when we aren't planning on going outside right that minute or in the very near future...  It's hard enough for me to remember to take medicine... guess i need to set alarms for everything on my phone.. better yet i think her allergy medicine can be worked into our nighttime routine (it is 24 hr allergy stuff so that will work.... right?!?!)

Ugh, being sick has caused us to not go on our walks as often as we were and its frustrating because i can see the extra............ almost 60 lbs that i need/want to lose to feel back to normal, i feel enormous and can't stand it!  And i haven't had a cigarette in 3 days and for almost a week before that i had 2 a day, quitting is hard!! being sick is helping bc i really don't want a cigarette while i'm coughing up a lung and feel like i'm dying just trying to breath.  but working out helps that and if i can't do anything without getting winded due to my oh so wonderful bronchitis how can i expect to do anything!!!!  grrrrr.

I'm not a good patient and for that i feel horrible for my husband bc he's been taking care of me but when things don't go the way i want them to the first time..... i get whiney and that doesn't solve anything but when i don't feel good it doesn't matter what helps or solves anything all i care about is it being/going the way i want it to....  So my hubby is amazing, and i am so blessed to have such a truly wonderful man in my life and by my side... going to finish GH and get a nap bc matt will be back in a minute with my prescription and i'd love a good little nap.......
