So tired

Well it's day 6 of munchkin being sick. Again. Yep, again. He is almost 15 months which means he has been sick at least 10 times in his short life. It is so frustrating for so many reasons.

For one thing, I can always see it coming. He does great when we are home. Eats well. Sleeps well. And then we go out if town where he doesn't eat and definitely doesn't sleep. He even battles naps. So he gets run down and then like clockwork gets sick Monday night. And then for two weeks, he barely eats and barely sleeps.

The three times in brigz's life that we have been home for over three weeks straight are the spans that he has started eating the best, sleeping the best, and no sickness. It is no wonder we can't get weight on the poor kid.

The last sickness was in august an it was a bad one. This time, he isn't that sick, but holy cow, I have seen a new side to him. He definitely inherited a temper from his daddy. He has a stuffy nose and he gets so mad at his nose! He throws things, yells, and even shoves his finger in his nose in anger!! Which i totally dont understand! The madder he gets, the more he cries, which means more tears and boogers. It is so sad.

Basically, I am frustrated that we can't get a hold on his health and so mentally and physically exhausted from little sleep and all the crazy demands of a sick 15 month old. It is so hard to watch him get so mad an not be able to help him. The world will be a better place when he can blow his nose.

The topic of church today was prayer. Something our family has been majorly slacking on and boy does it show in our life. Everything Corey has been touching lately breaks. So his relaxing weekends have turned into work, work, work. He has a major to-do list (made by himself, not me) that he finally put a dent in this weekend but took many "go back two spaces" and "do not pass go"s. We realize how things like this happen when God has been put on the back burner. We need to step it up and give out glory and praise to him. If it doesn't make our duties easier, it sure betters our attitudes!

So in the spirit of our lesson today, say some prayers for the Bells that we get our game-face on for God and that we have a turn around in health and blessings. I think we are all four (including Bella who feels super neglected) on the verge of nervous breakdowns!!! Not seriously, but maybe... Haha.
