August 10th-12th

After two fun filled days, my boy woke up on Wednesday and said he was not feeling well. I called Ms. Anna and cancelled piano lessons. As soon as I hung up the phone, Jacek threw up all over himself. I felt so bad for him. I put him in the bath and he hung out in there for at least 30 minutes. He said that he was starting to feel better so he got out of the bath and started to throw up again. It was more like dry heaving but it looked pretty painful. Matt came home for a quick stop and brought Sprite and ice cream for Jacek. Matt is such a great dad! It really made Jacek's day even though he felt like crap. I tried to get him to drink as much Sprite and water as possible but he was unable to keep anything down. He did not eat or drink anything all day. He slept a lot and I tried to be with him as much as possible without neglecting Luna. She kept wanting to wake her brother up.

I pulled out his baby blanket because I knew that would comfort him. He laid on the couch and in my bed all day. The next day I was hoping that Jacek would be feeling a little better. When I woke up I found him laying on the rug in the living room asleep.

When he finally woke up, he was feeling better but he was still not feeling well. He had stopped throwing up and I fixed him anything he wanted. I made macaroni and cheese, pizza, chicken nuggets and french fries. All of which are his favorite. He ate most of everything. I was glad to see him eating again. Luna was getting stir crazy. She was ready to conquer the world and did not understand why we had to stay inside in such a beautiful day. I drew her a bath and let her play in the water to try and burn some of her wild energy. I think she had a good time and she left Jacek alone for a  short while.

Haha, she will thank me for this one day! By mid-day, Jacek was on the mend. It was challenging to try to keep both kids happy. They wanted to fight over toys, TV, one looking at the other, etc. They were bored and I was trying to keep them busy. After dinner we went outside for some fresh air and it did wonders for us. I'm not looking forward to winter at all! By Friday, Jacek was feeling better but still not 100%. I had to work so Donna (meemaw) came and got the kids. I knew she would roll out the special carpet for Jacek. I know that he loved every minute of it.

Song of the week: Lazy song  by Bruno Mars. Luna knows every word and all the dance moves from the video.
