Parenting at its toughest

Its been quite a rough ride for us here the last month. Audrey had an unexplained high fever a few weeks ago, up to 105 at one point. Lingering around 102-103 degrees for 6 days, her fever finally subsided with the help of antibiotics, what or where the infection was, its a mystery but the antibiotics worked. After Audrey's fever issue passed, little Nicholas got conjunctivitis, AKA pink eyes! And I got it from him, along with it I got shingles! Nicholas is well now, his eyes are beautiful, dark brown/black on white, never thought I'd be so happy to see 'white.' However my eyes are still pink and my shingles are itching and hurting...excruciating pain! I realize how painful 'excruciating' is now! I just hope the shingles go away fast, please don't let it last a month.

Thank goodness Audrey is behaving, she realizes that I am ill so she is being very good. She even comes over to kiss me when I ask her not too. She wants to comfort me so she needs to kiss me, she even told me "Mama don't be scare, Mui Mui is here." This little girl of mines is so wonderful. I love her so much.

How Sweet

Nicholas is now two months and 1.5 weeks, he is such a beautiful baby and adorable. It took a good 7 weeks or his diaper area to clear up and look healthy and pain free. His poop is still a bit runny but it only happens once or twice a day and its a 'BIG' business when it does happen, I'm so proud of him, he is growing so wonderfully. Yet I am so wondering how he was 2 months ago when he was a newborn in my arms. At 13.5 pounds, he is not a bit like he was at birth, especially with the haircut, he looks so 'toddler' instead of 'infant.' It brings tears to my eyes and a smile in my heart at the same time to see how Niki and Audi are growing. I love them both and William soooo much that I can't find words to describe it. William has been such a great husband and daddy, I'm so happy to have him in my life.
