Sickness hit the Hill House this week and I'm so thankful that it only lasted a couple days! Both Jordan and Taylor got the flu and all of us girls are still battling these stupid colds with running noses and non-stop coughing. Why must we ever get sick? I ask myself this question every time it happens. I guess it's to make us appreciate our health when we are feeling great. I look forward to that day!
I do a lot of laundry as it is in our house, but this past week I have found myself very behind. I was trying to figure out why exactly that was when I realized that clean laundry had taken over my couch and here are my excuses:
1.) Having sick people in your house - you end up washing everything a few times just to make sure the germs are all gone.
2.) With a daughter that wears 18 different outfits a day and somehow magically gets all of them dirty in the short time that she wears them - you end up washing little girls clothes alone like 2 or 3 times a week. I'm so thankful for my little princess!
3.) Bentley is growing! YEAH! It's so fun having two girls in a row because when you pull the next size of clothes out of storage it's like going shopping for really cute stuff except everything is free! I washed an entire bin of 6-12 month clothes that Taylor used to wear so that Bentley could try them out!
Even though it was an overwhelming amount of clothes to fold and organize and put away, we had a lot of fun getting the job done! My little helper (Taylor) kept me entertained by wanting to try on all her old clothes and model them for me. I found myself telling her, "Tay, that's way too little for you. You wore that when you were a baby." Or, "Honey, that's for Bentley to wear - I don't think that it will fit you." She proved me wrong BIG TIME by squeezing her tiny little buns into 6-9 months shirts and pants. I was shocked!
I'm happy to say that I am all caught up on the laundry.....at least for now (I've already noticed the hampers starting to fill again). Why is it a never ending chore? I'm just thankful that my sweet husband and daughter are feeling better! I love my HEALTHY family!
Poor little sick Taylor getting some rest.
When she woke up she was almost healed! She was ready to go and play and do whatever else. I caught her putting her blanket on her daddy while he was still sleeping and she told me that she wanted him to be "cozy." It was really sweet!
