Well little T is not the happiest camper right now. After a few weeks of holding it off, the cold that the brothers have all suffered with finally won and little Tennyon got sick with his first big cold. I feel so bad for him, he is stuffy, and sneezy and clearly miserable… he just seems so sad… today is WAY better than a few days ago, but you can still see how sad he looks:

Poor baby is SO unhappy and his mommy must admit she is getting a bit worn out. Last week G was out of town all week long from Monday through Friday at a Microsoft MVP Summit, and so I was on four boy duty all week long. Not to mention I finished two new collabs for Sweet shoppe (here and here). Friday, he came home and that day Tennyson’s cold kicked in full force (along with pretty much no sleeping to speak of). Then on Saturday morning we had four more little boys over for Owen’s fifth birthday party (yes doing the math, our home was filled with 8 little men). And after that tennyson just started getting fussier and fussier and came down with a fever – which prompted the pediatrician to send us to the ER. So no rest for the weary that night, or Sunday (although his fever came down, he was still not happy in the least and his usual cuddly self was extra clingy and extremely fussy – who can blame the poor little guy), and then again last night very little sleep, plus the getting up at 4:30 am to take Owen to the airport (see the next post down)… and this mommy is feeling a bit worn out to say the least…. hmmm perhaps I should have taken the picture of my disheveled, tired self and posted that instead! (yeah…not likely)

Cross your fingers for us that this passes soon and that tired mommy doesn’t come next in the sick parade, because I’m ready for a break!

  1. Oh no!! I hope baby boy feels all better very, very soon. How scary for you. :(

    BTW, Love the kits!! I am completely impressed that you were home with all four guys alone AND created the kits. Way beyond impressed!

  2. Ohhh, so sorry Tennyson caught that darned bug that’s going around. If you haven’t tried saline nose drops–that was the ticket for Nick … soaking the end of a really skinny Q-tip worked better than trying to “drop” them in his nose. I hope you all get some happy, restful sleep soon.
