Life Remote

I was wishing earlier that life came with a remote, so I could restart the day. And then as I was laying here nursing the baby, I was looking at the remote and there are a lot of buttons on there I could uses. But what for?

Can you imagine having an on and off button. Not only could I turn off the boys when they are running a muck, or turn off myself when I feel like I am about to go crazy. And I wont even get to the turn on button!

The info button would be a life saver. As a wife and mom sometimes I wonder, what the hell is going though these guys minds. When you tell them to do something for you and all you get is that blank stare....info button!

Imagine if you could go back in time! Our wedding day, the birth of our children(is there a pain free button?). Those sweet little moments that we don't ever want to forget could be relived when ever we needed a smile. And there is a record button just in case we miss it the first time! You could fall in love over and over again. I would love to be able to go forward and see the kind of men my boys grow up to be. But I think that would be a scary button for me.

We have tivo, so there is a thumbs up and down button. And at times like now, when I am completely rambling on, there is is a live TV button to snap me back to reality.

Now that I got this nonsense out, I'm going to go take my meds and get my head straight!

Sick

Well I should have known, with two sick boys and a sick husband, there was no getting away from it. I feel like ass. My nightstand is covered in empty water bottles and tissues. And carmax, the boys thermometers and the ever so popular nose bulb. Or the booger sucker as we call it.

The one thing I am very thankful for is that Alex has been so much more healthy than Anthony was. We were in and out of the hospital for the first year and a half of that kids life. Alex's biggest problem is a horrible yeast infection that wont go away. But when you look at the big picture, Ill take a diaper rash over IVs and meds any day.

Being sick is one things, but when your babies are sick it is almost to much to bear. They are so innocent and cant tell you what they want or need. Holding your baby down for nurses to poke and prod, is one of the worst feelings in the world.

Hopefully this sickness will pass quick. Ive been sanitizing everything and making sure mouths are covered. But you know how it is with boys, they share everything....even germs!
