So, here we are halfway through 2011 and my first question is “How the hell did that happen?” Seriously, it was New Year’s like a second ago…right? RIGHT??
Ok, freakout over. Back to your regularly scheduled blog. To say that 2011 has been a wonderful year with no problems or struggles, would be a bold face lie. But it has had it’s good points! So grab a snack and enjoy the read.
The suckiness factor kicked in right away...on January 5th, we received word that my brother-in-law’s grandmother passed away at the age of 94. Some may so “wasn’t your grandma”…true, she wasn’t but in a way she was. K&P (sister and brother-in-law) have been married for 16 years and I have known GG since then. She sold wedding invitations as a side business, so she insisted on taking care of ours when we got married. She and my Grandma were good friends and she was half of the “Yentas”. You see, it was GG and GE (my grandma) that introduced my sister and her husband.
Then the following week, Brianna got sick. At first we thought it was a bladder infection, but that came back clear and we were told it’s a virus and it just had to run its course. The next morning, I stayed home with her and the poor little girl had no voice. My girl, who has inherited my gift of gab, sounded so awful and had this awful barking cough. Broke my heart. As the night went on, she kept sounding worse and about 8:00 it seemed as if she was really struggling to breathe. So, we got dressed and off to the ER we went. Luckily, we got in quickly…and she has croup. Breating treatment + 2 year old = one FUN night (note sarcasm here). We ened up leaving the ER around midnight…neither Mommy or Daddy slept well that night because we were worried that she would have more problems. After a few days, she became her little silly self all over again…
More to come later…
