i feel awful

today i'm learning what its like to take care of a baby and feel awful at the same time. long story short today i have thrown up 5 times, battled a 102 fever (keeps bouncing back and forth), sat in a tub of cold water, slept about 9 hours, and expelled enough mucous to last a lifetime. needless to say i'm not feeling so good. chris was here this morning to take care of caitlin which i greatly appreciated. about halfway through the day she developed a mild fever (i think from the shots yesterday) so i gave her baby tylenol and she slept for 3 hours. when she woke she was better. then chris had to run an errand and so it was up to me to watch caitlin. she was good most of the time, but got antsy towards the end. i was trying my best to watch her but thats hard to do while vomiting at the same time, ya know? anyway i was grateful to have him come home. parenting is truely a partnership!!!
