Codeine induced nap, anyone?

OK...Cheney is in a codiene induced nap, Nahtaniel is on some kind of prescribed antihistimine and decongestant. Layton needed something for the coughs and Elijah just needed a nap because he still does. I have also had to take some antihistamine/decongestant stuff too. So far only Daddy and Cheney have infections. Hopefully we can keep everyone from getting that far. I better go sleep while all 4 of them are quiet and still. At least there is one thing nice that comes from paying all that money for prescribed meds.

Honestly I am so thankful we only have to deal with the seasonal allergies and sickness. I have to remind myself that these too will pass. Night time sleep will come again for all of us!!!

FYI...#2 just woke up everyone...at least #3 who is sick went back to sleep. No sleep for the weary. A mom told me a few weeks ago, I have to wait 18 more years before I get good sleep again. I am beginning to believe it.

  1. I am in complete agreement with the 18 yr thing - geez, if it's not the kids, the dog comes in shaking his collar to go outside, or my hubby has to get up at 4:30 for a flight. One day when we're old, eating early bird specials and watching wheel of fortune we'll be rested!

  2. Bless your tired heart! I promise a good night sleep does come before 18. The night time disturbances get less and less after they hit about 7 and then when it does happen you can relish the time to cuddle with them - since that also starts to happen a little less frequently too. I guess you gotta take the good with the bad?!?!?!
