D.J. has bronchitis

Well we're STILL not healthy. D.J. has pretty much had a cold ever since I started spreading this illness, and last week he also went in for a strep test but that was negative. On Friday he really started to get miserable, and this week he started coughing up green junk so then he decided to listen to his wife and go back to the doctor ;) Well low and  behold, he has a sinus infection and bronchitis! Now he's on more Mucinex, antibiotics, and codine cough syrup at night. Ughhhh...will we ever all be healthy at the same time?

In more positive news... in addition to Brecken cruising all over the house, he's now starting to say a few real words like cheese, cookie, thank you, ni-night, and wuv you! It's so fun to see him making all of these accomplishments. He's also started to blow me kisses when I drop him off at daycare in the morning...it is so adorable and nothing melts my heart quite like that! Oh, and did I mention that at just 16-months of age, he is able to open doors! Yeah, he can pull the lever down on a door that has been completely pushed shut, then pull the door towards him, move out of the way, and then sneak out of the room in a flash. I think we're in trouble!

Well I think I'm heading to bed (Yes, I know it's only 8:30), but I'm completely exhausted! School is absolutely insane this year. I'm working 9 hours a day with about a 15 minute lunch, bringing work home, and still feel like I'm completely floundering in my to-do lists which just include the very basics like corrcting papers, e-mailing parents, and making copies. I've cut-out over half of the "extra" school stuff this year just so I can spend a little time with my adorable little boy! (But really,  I feel like I'm a half teacher and half mom and don't do either job up to par!) Now on top of all that usual school stuff, I'm trying to keep the house running and care for my sick husband.  Ahhhhhhhhhhh! Ok, thanks for listening to me vent. I know this is just pretty much typical life for families with young children. Please say a prayer for me :) I will make it to June, I will make it to June!

Thank God tomorrow is Friday and only one more week until our mini-vacation in Fort Myers! A little light at the end of the tunnel :)

Have a great weekend!
