1. The Thursday before, our baby was diagnosed with RSV. Daddy stayed home Thursday and Friday. With Monday being a day off with MLK day, mommy stayed home Monday as well.
2. With a sick baby, we made sure she had lots of rest.
3. Baby says she's only a little bit sick as she plays with her new dolly, baby Lucy.
4. As our baby got a bit healthier, she enjoyed some good play and tummy time. Aubrey says, "Hey, I think this thing is supposed to play music. I'm a little bit confused.
5. Daddy enjoyed a day off and tried a water deprivation chamber. Daddy's "space ship travel" was amazingly fun, but as he said was basically an expensive nap. The night before was a bad sleep night with baby and instead of enjoying the dark pod filled with salt water, he fell asleep instead.
6. Friday night, I enjoyed a night with my two greatest loves. I couldn't be a happier mama and wife! I love these two more than words.
7. After days of frozen temperatures, Sunday provided a gorgeous day of playtime at the park.
8. Sunday night, we met with our ABF for a leadership and planning meeting.
After much prayer, we are excited about our new Engage Initiative, The GROW Initiative: Giving Riches in Other Ways. It will be a wonderful way to serve others and show God's love to all people.
This week has surely been a week of ups and downs. Our sweet girl being sick, sleepless nights, the craziness of school and going back to work, trying to fit in a new work out schedule, and being mommy.wifey.andteacher has been a true challenge. While I have been met by many days of exhaustion and tears, I am thankful for the privilege of being all three and know that a balance will soon find me. So here's to next week and to the smiles, the snuggles, and the blessings in between.
