I Have 2 Things To Say...

The first thing is...
We are sick!
Alex and I are both not feeling well. We both have a terrible head cold, and neither of us seem to be getting better.
I have to say, I love being a mom. And I hate being sick. But I REALLY hate being sick and being a mom at the same time. Before if I got sick, I could just lounge around, do nothing, and take as much medication as I want. But now I have this little baby to take care of. So we have been lounging around together, but all I can think about is keeping Evalie healthy. I am keeping myself hydrated so that Evie will stay hydrated. And because Evalie is very alert during the day, I have little time to take naps. Thankfully she has been sleeping well at night, so I can too. Although last night I woke up in the middle of the night all on my own. Yuck!
Well, we are hoping that we will get over this soon. And we are praying that Evalie doesn't get it at all. I will be very sad if my baby gets sick because of me!
And the second thing is...
(disclaimer: this is a bunch of rambling that no one may really care about!)
I have some Momma sadness!
On Monday my sick self decided to spend some time in Evalie's room organizing. A few weeks ago, I had gotten all her 3-6 months clothes out because she was going to be 3 months. She had been wearing some 3-6 mos clothes already. I am not naive to the fact that my child is larger than a normal 3 month old.
So Monday I was going through her 6-9 month clothes and getting them ready for when she will need them in a few months. Much to my shock and amazement, she is already smack in the middle of the weight guide (I don't know what they call it) for the 6-9 month clothes. So apparently we skipped the 3-6 month bracket! Sadness!
Evalie does fit into all of her 3-6 month clothes still. She just also fits into her 6-9 months also. So, I am sad because my little girl is growing up. She is getting so big! So fast! I am sad because I know that she is not going to be a baby for very much longer. I just have to focus on the fun things that are to come. Even though I am sad that she is growing up, I am excited that she is growing up! Does that make sense?
Well, that's all I have to say today!

You are totally normal to feel sad! Maya is *this close* to crawling and it makes me sad and proud all at the same time. I get sniffly every time I clean out her drawers and put in the bigger stuff.
