Well I will tell you where... Knee deep in the throws of having 3 sick kids (and one adult if you include myself). It was less than perfect timing since Troy had to leave for Utah for the weekend. I was one busy Mama! Poor Audrey lost her cookies 16 times. It was worrisome. But not as bad as poor Eliza who would not get better for a stretch of 8 days and 8 horrible nights. We are now on day 3 of being over it and I am starting to feel like a normal person again. Lack of sleep does weird things to a person- It makes me cranky! (OK, I know that's normal, but it still sucks!), We seem to have avoided starting an IV for fluids on our one year old dolly. She stopped nursing for 10 hours and was like a limp noodle. Thanks to some friends who brought in groceries and much needed Pedialyte. Then when the heat in the house also went out, a neighbor brought those easy-light logs for my fireplace. God does really love me to send me such good people to take care of me. Here are some nice pictures I took this morning of our recovered child with a cherished hat hand knitted for her as a newborn by my friend Kathryn Tripp. I have been telling her I would prove to her that it still fits and goes well with multiple outfits- proof in color photos! Incidentally she is doing the sign for hat for you Kathryn....

Oh, a sick baby is so scary! I'm glad she's feeling better and that Mama is on the mend, too.
I am also breathing a huge sigh of relief! I took her in today for a 1 year check and they gave me a print out of her last several weigh-ins. She lost almost a pound and is now back up. That is a lot when you only weigh 18lbs! The crummy part is that now that she is 'better' she is teething and cranky, and we had to give her 4 shots- ugh~
