"What Advil Can Do" (The Video)

I'm going to go ahead and throw this out there. I honestly think Advil should use this video as part of their marketing campaign.

Sidney Kate was "near death" on her changing table, eyes rolling back in her head; she was about to go to sleep. Since she had a fever and was just super yucky I wanted to give her Advil before putting her to bed.

Not 10 minutes later did I record this video.

So enjoy, "What Advil Can Do". (She went in circles much longer than this video...I knew if I kept rolling I'd never get it uploaded-haha)

She May Be Sick...But She's Still Funny

Sidney Kate and I are hanging at home today with some yuckiness. We are both on the upswing however; I think Kevin is just starting his journey.

Our story begins a little after 12. We heard signs of Kevin arriving home for lunch so we hurried to the couch to "hide" from him. (FYI-this is Sidney Kate's new favorite game...she can be sitting near a blanket, grab it and say, "Hide"...meaning she wants to get under it.)

So we're both on the couch quiet as mice...or as quiet as a 16 month old child can be when he came up the stairs. He began calling for "Sidney Kate" and "Mommy". You have to know that her congestion has taken her voice and left her with the sickly/scratchy voice that makes her cries even more pitiful than they really are.

So here we are hiding and Kevin is acting like he can't find us. She has learned the quiet part recently but still gets giddy and does that nervous/excited movement thing as he gets closer. He was right over us and said, "Is Sidney Kate and Mommy here?" Out of nowhere you hear this little sick voice say, "No." As serious and honest as can be. Needless to say I couldn't stay under the blanket anymore from laughing so hard.

She's sick...but still funny!

Rough Week!

Sidney Kate has had one rough week! It started off with her getting bit at daycare. A dentist could identify the kid by the distinct teeth marks if he needed to-ouch! The red marks went away after 2 or 3 days. I didn't panic because I know that will happen and I know that one day it could be her...I just hope not!

The next day at daycare she knocked her noggin on a table and had a yucky bruise and bump on her forehead. As if that weren't bad enough, she came home and hit her head in the same spot after slipping on a puppy bed. Shew! She went to bed with two bumps--on top of each other!
Then we found out that her lead level test got lost in the mail, so they needed her back to poke her finger again. (She was a champ at this just like she was the first time they did it!) But while we were at the doctor she smashed her finger in a door and had to sit with a bag taped her to while they waited for her to pee. Seriously, a tough week! The bag was for another issue she was having this week...poor girl!
So, it's a new week and we're going to kick off the football season and play in some sand! Hopefully it will be better! I have named this past week her "Kevin week".

Sick Continued...

Sidney Kate attempted a return to daycare on Thursday...she made it 1/2. Apparently her symptoms were NOT a result of teething but another virus. Yak! During her time at home she has done some discovering...like the fact she can crawl behind the couch, get stuck, cry...and we'll pull it out so she can have a Sidney Kate size tunnel.

Cutest lil bum...crawl baby crawl!

The Easter Bunny provided her with some great shades...she'll actually wear them. She wore them as she watched Daddy mow the yard. She took them off once and realized they made it not so bright out, so she reached for them to go back on...so funny!

Since Sidney Kate couldn't attend daycare Friday, GG hung out with her. They took a big stroll outside and enjoyed the nice weather!

After a long day of playing it's time for a nap...GO RED SOX!

Sick...

Sidney Kate is home with Momma today...she woke up at 1 this morning with 103 temperature and diarrhea. Pretty sure we all just had the stomach bug...so our first words were..."NOT AGAIN!"
Here are pictures from her day at home...looks real sick huh? Apparently a 103 temperature can't hold her down...oh no...she's got to keep on moving!


What you can't see here is the TV is playing Yo Gabba Gabba, one of the weirdest shows on Noggin'. But she enjoys it and is actually dancing to 'Don't Bite Your Friends!'

I think she was doing the Carlton.
