my new best friend, maybe...

i can't believe i am doing s post without pictures! a short, very random post, but no pictures?!

*first of all, i am happy to say that after ONE MONTH, eleanor and will have had 5 DAYS straight with no digestive issues! yep, for one month, no more than 2 days passed that someone wasn't having diarrhea, vomiting, up in the night crying with tummy pain, not eating...it was weird and concerning. tests came back fine and now all is well, praise the LORD! miraculously, by God's good grace, i escaped the illness. i can't even say that for the dog. true story. eleanor has learned a lot the last month of sickies: we were out to eat a few nights ago and the waitress brought her some milk...she exclaimed with a little laugh, "no, don't bring me MILK, i have DIARRHEA!"

*eleanor and will are now sharing a room! as of monday night. it is very cute and very sweet and also tiring. up late, up early, but hopefully things will smooth out soon! i will post pictures soon. they were pretty excited that first night! we heard eleanor coming out to go to the bathroom, "i'll be right back, william!" he cried until we heard her walk back in, "i'm back, will!" so sweet! i remind myself of the sweet stuff when i start thinking about how much less sleep they are getting...

*will is saying "mommy" now instead of "mama"! so cute. "mommy, mommy, MOMMY!" he has also added a good number of words to his vocab over the past couple of weeks. up, off, diaper, yellow, apple, oops, no wipes, birdie...and so on and so on! i love it.

*on a final note, the day that eleanor and will seemed to really be WELL, i got sick with a bad sore throat/head cold. after 2 nights of poor sleep and one night of almost NO sleep, when i got to the point where i started to go crazy, my good husband made me take tylonol pm. yes, it is dr. approved for pregnancy, but i was still hesitant. but all i can say is, that stuff just may be my new best friend...!

so that's what's been happening here. and, by the way, our new little guy is due in just 6 weeks!!

yes, Silas and Priya share a room, but they have since Priya was 6months or so...so that transition was pretty easy for us. Silas hasn't napped since he was 2 1/2 regularly, so he sleeps like a rock at night, which helps. Now, however, Priya is in a big girl trundle because Levi needed her crib...she gets up on Silas' bed and wants to sleep with him now. We've had to discipline a lot, but we're thankful that they get to share and hope and pray that they will have a stronger relationship because of it. Besides, they might sin less if not ever forced to "deal" with one another, but we are the same way, no??
