Each member of the family has been sick at some point in the last two weeks. Unfortunately, I think Naomi has caught a combination of our various ailments. She's been sick for two weeks straight with no signs of getting better. I'm turning into that mom that's bringing her baby to the pediatrician every few days, only to be told "it's just a cold." I really can't help being overly neurotic about her health considering she has been hospitalized twice in her very short life.
Needless to say, we've been getting very little sleep, which is probably contributing to my endless nasty cold. Last night was rough and when we finally did roll out of bed, I spent the morning suctioning, wiping, and cuddling a silently crying baby. It's really sad to see your baby cry and only hear quiet squeaks come out because she's lost her voice. I came downstairs in time to make Ava's lunch and send her off to school, at which point I realized that neither Tyler or I made the girls any breakfast. I felt like a really neglectful mom until Ava informed me that Lilly made her oatmeal for breakfast!!! Ah the beauty of those little packets of oatmeal and an instant hot water dispenser.
