BLOWN OUT of the 'Blog Fog'

So, life with two kids has been both WONDERFUL and BLURRY! We certainly have seen a lot of our free time disappear, but it has been worth it. Our blog has most definitely suffered from this time warp - something that I have called the 'blog fog.' How do you come up with something clever to say when you cannot even think straight? I cannot remember half of what I used to know, thus the blog has been empty for a long time.

Fields to the rescue, though! Here is the background:

Things had been going really well for us with two kids during January. We settled into a great routine and both the boys were thriving together. During the past two weeks, however, Deborah and Fields have been hit hard with bronchitis. Both of them have been through a round of antibiotics, and just now they are showing signs of improvement. Cannon, poor little guy, tested positive for RSV, thus he has been on steroids and breathing treatments for a week. By the grace of God, I have managed to stay relatively well during this war zone.
Fields, at 18 months and 5 days , has had a streak going on that I have been personally proud of. He went the first 18 months and 4 days without ever having diarrhea!!!!!! Sounds strange, but he has been 'solid' for his entire life, which I contribute to his insanely healthy diet (mush rules). Well, after a week of antibiotics and snot being ingested, he finally caved. I was asleep this morning because I was on Cannon patrol last night (feeding and breathing treatments every 4 hours). Deborah got Fields around 7:30 am, and she was welcomed by a natural disaster....

PROCEED TO LOOK AT THE FOLLOWING PICTURES AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!!!!!!









Cannon was, needless to say, undisturbed by the whole thing!



Clay for the Kirklands!!!

Clay,

Um.... wow, I don't know if I've ever seen such a graphic blog post. Those pictures. It's reality and I'll give you the "bold blogger of the week" award, no doubt. Thanks for the warning before the viewing.

Fields,

This is just life, bub. Don't let your Dad hold you to such standards. Let it flow when you feel the need. Even if you eat the mush for many years to come, these things will happen.

Love, your Uncle Sean

Wow Fields! NanaLynn has changed some "out of the diaper" poops but this may be bigger than anything I have encountered! You can keep the record as far as the Lochamy boys and Sanders kids are concerned and oh, how many wipes? ha!
glad everybody is getting well at your house - ls
