fun week followed by sick baby..

My poor Brybry just can't catch a dang break. Every time she gets some chub back on her she gets sick again. I just got back from the DR and Bry has RSV. ): Rhett and Tacey are out of town right now so it is kind of nice cause I get this sweet one all to myself. I did have a lot of fun plans for us like going to the movie, park, and out to dinner but cuddlin on the couch with my little munchkin has been nice and will do just fine. We have got her on some steroids, antibiotics, motrin, and the good ole nebulizer. So hopefully she will be good as new in no time.

My good friend Whit and I kept ourselves busy last week! I think we are ready for summer.

Whit did these amazing lash extensions for me. I LOVE them. cause even on a day like today where i am exhausted and have been up all night with a sick baby i still feel like i look good.

aren't they so pretty!!

you can tell i have had a long day when i am wearing my sweatshirt and hat....

and my eyes are bloodshot.

maybe i will retake these pictures on a better day. haha. 

 we also took our kids to ijump TWICE last week. we had to go back again so our hubbies could give it a try. i seriously think us parents have more fun than the kids. 

both my girls think Braizley is the best thing EVER. Not a day goes by that Braiz doesn't get brought up.

BEST FRIENDS(:

it's really hard to get a clear picture...

Braiz and Tace playin in the pit.

then whit and i had a girls night friday night.

we went to the hunger games.

i think i am getting old, cause i was soo proud of myself for staying awake past midnight.

the movie was great!

i loved it. 

i seriously thought they did such a good job at following the book.

now i think i will have to reread it.

 I wish every week were that fun. (:

update

Okay, so I really do think that this grapejuice thing works! We have been drinking it like by the gallons. Tacey, who normally gets soo super sick anytime she is exposed to anything really did good this week! She woke up one morning and threw up a tiny bit and that was the end of it. Seriously! She was asking for oatmeal and chicken nuggets the rest of the day. haha, too bad I wouldn't give them to her. I have been keepin my girls on the BRAT diet just in case.
So, I really do hate to get on my blog just to complain, but can I just say the the stomach flu just sucks and has ruined my week. This was supposed to be such a special week. Tacey's birthday was on Saturday and then she was SUPPOSED to start preschool on Tuesday. Luckily everyone was healthy for the party but Tacey didn't make it to one day of school this week ): Honestly my kids really weren't even that sick, but my BIGGEST pet peeve EVER is when parents take their sick kids anywhere and everwhere (school, church..). So, I try really hard to be considerate and not expose everyone else when my family is sick or still could be contagious. Okay, I swear I am done complaining now(: And if you hadn't noticed, I must sound like the most annoying, paranoid mama ever.
But anyways, next time you think your family has been exposed to the nasty stomach bug drink a glass of grapejuice three times a day and it is supposed to really help fight the dang bug off (100% juice). But, I have heard lots of times, DON'T drink it if you are already sick...MESSY. Anyways, hope this helps somebody else, I sure am glad I came across it! I know it could have and should have been a lot worse for us this week.

Science Experiment

so if you know me you know that i am a bit if a germ freak, even more when it comes to my kids. i try and keep them in a bubble so they arent constantly exposed to all the nasty crap going around. no worries, they still hang out with friends and go to church. but i did learn the hard way with tacey. she got very sick very young and had a rough couple years, so i vowed to become more careful and i feel like i really have done a good job at keeping my kids healthy. anways, onto my experiment. over the weekend while at a friends house our entire family got expsed to the stomach bug....my worst nightmirror. so i did my research and read and read and read up on how you could prevent it. turns out grape juice is the magic answer. something to do with the acidity...you can read about it at grammysuesnews.blogspot.com . so my family just started guzzling grape juice like crazy...everone except for brylee, she only likes milk. well, brybry woke up yesterday morning throwing up. the rest of us are still drinking the juice and just fine, i guess we will find out within the next couple days if this really is the magic juice. pray for us, i hate, hate, hate the flu. and i have the most queasy stomach ever when it comes to vomit. luckily brylee has been amazing. she prefers using the toilet to throw up in and gets excited to clean up and soap up afterwards. what an awesome one year old i have. well, i will keep ya updated on how the little experiment goes. wouldn't that be soo cool if it really worked!!
ps: i wrote this post on my droid, so it is a little sloppier than normal(:
