Mother's Day

Well it has been long week. William started a fever on Tuesday, went to the doctor on Wednesday (most likely just a viral infection), Murphy went for his surgery on Thursday, and the last two nights we have been dealing with a dog with diarrhea and an unhappy baby. Not exactly the Mother's day I pictured, but I wouldn't trade my life for anything.

William seems to be over the fever, but isn't sleeping all that great a night again. While he was sick he slept through the night three nights in a row, I was hoping it was going to be a trend that stuck, but guess not right now.

Murphy has either some reaction to the anesthesia, or stress induced stomach issues. We are trying the bland diet, but so far no luck, he was up every hour last night to go out to the bathroom. Adam doesn't sleep well with interruptions, so he is one tired Dad today.

Motherhood is not always what you expect, but none the less it is amazing. A big thank you goes out to our Mothers, thank you for the values, teachings and life you gave us. Hope you are having a nice relaxing Mother's day.

Here are some pictures of what makes it all worth it... (sorry no pictures of Murphy, he doesn't look to good right now, poor guy).
