I just put Weston to bed and after a book and a little chit chat we talked to God for a few min. I usually start it off by thanking God for our day and keeping us safe and for all the fun things we got to do etc. Weston will chime in when he thinks of things. So after we had finished Weston oh yea and God tell Jesus to have fun in the sky! and tell him to not get lost or we will have to call 911!
hahahah funny boy.
Weston a few weeks ago at swim lessons got to slide down a fireman pole into the pool. Which is where i think the idea for today's game came from.I was laying in bed with a cranky Nelson (will explain after) an d into the bedroom Weston runs with the broom. He leans it up on the foot board of the bed and climbs up on the bed and steps over and slides down the "fire pole" onto the floor. Well it wasn't that smooth because he fell into the laundry basket and then rolled onto the floor and then started laughing!
As for Nelson being cranky..... We had the dreaded vaccinations today.And if the whole needles thing didn't stress me out enough it was the awful MMR day.
I had originally intended to not get my children this needle. But i later decided that if would get the initial needle but postpone if get it all the booster shot.
I don't like vaccinations for the ingredients in them but i do acknowledge the purpose of them. So instead of saying to to any I choose to wait until they are at least 15 months old before they receive ANY needles and then I pick and choose which ones I feel comfortable with.
It was mentally draining for me to make a decision to get any needles at all. but i made the decision with Weston and I had to talk to God about my Resistance to them and really realize that God is the only one that can keep my kids safe and that if I ask God to make sure nothing bad comes from them then I need to believe that , that is exactly what God will do. Do I have to remind myself that" fear isn't from God, that a sound mind is" constantly before and after i get the needles I most certainly do. But a little reminder is all I need and I am calm again!
Calm OK but annoyed yes still. Nelson got his needles at 10 , we went and played at the YMCA and ate lunch there. Came home and at 1:30 I put him to bed thinking there was a good chance he would sleep a good chunk of the afternoon away.
2:10 i was woken from my nap by him crying. I gave it a few min thinking he just stirred a bit and is trying to find his soother. No such luck.
I went and got him and he cried for 20 min while I held him and tried to calm him down. eventually he stopped the continuous cry and instead would only cry if I moved or if Weston touched him or looked at him the wrong way. But later on Weston was being silly and doing funny things that was making Nelson laugh so i knew he was starting to feel better
Needless to say it has been a long afternoon and evening. He did cuddle with me for 4 hours straight whichwas sort of nice but as soon as I would try to adjust my post ion because my back hurt after a while he would fuss and cry.
But he is in bed and quiet and thank God will Iam sure wake up to be fine in the morning!. He has never had any reaction at all to his needles but he does have a runny nose so he might be fighting a cold as well. Good thing I just got the new aromatic chest rub yesterday so hes all lathered up and sleeping soundly.
\Westons sleeping Nelson and Hemi too. Pats out for the night and instead of cleaning the house Iam going to watch a movie right here on the couch with the laptop so i don't even have to move a inch!
Goodnight!
