Velcro Child

Today has been a long one that tested my patience.  Everyone is sick.  We all have a cold/sinus thing and it sucks.  The husband can't fly so he will probably have watch a lot the next week which means I am on my own.  Hannah is teething and fighting this cold.  She has been cranky, and will not let me out of her sight.  Out of desperation, I tried out the ol' carrier that I hadn't used in over 6 months.  She was happy for about a minute and then she wanted out.  I was glad because my back was already hurting.  24 pounds is a lot to carry on your back!  She went to bed without a fight so I hope she sleeps through the night. 

I accomplished nothing today.  I managed to cook dinner and a few loads of laundry.  Between fighting Hannah off of me and trying to rest with the cold, I couldn't find the energy to do all my household stuff.  I wish I had a little robot helper that could sweep the floors for me while I try to figure out why my child is hitting me and crying.  That would make life just a little bit easier.   This hitting me and throwing cups at me is a phase, right?  Or do I have the mean child?

  1. I hope you all get feeling better! I hate it when everyone in the house is sick at the same time!
