A Worn out mommy

So Friday night we took Jenna to Birkdale Village to play in the fountain as I mentioned in the previous entry. Well...it seems that the little miss got water in her ears which led to an ear infection because she had a burning fever on Saturday afternoon. This led to a rough night for mommy as she kept waking up in pain, burning up, and wanting to be cuddled. All day Sunday mommy nursed her on the way to recovery, but we made the mistake of taking her out for dinner. This led to another rough night. At 1 am I was exhausted and yanked the mattress off of the guest bed and slept on the floor in Jenna's room. Monday was a little better, but today has been not fun.


Jenna has cried and screamed a bunch, didn't take a good nap today, is tired of being around just her mommy, PLUS mommy has been sick all day. This doesn't make for a good combination. While motherhood is one of the most rewarding jobs, nobody ever tells you that it is especially challenging when you don't feel good yourself and just feel like you need to rest. Thank goodness Jenna is so cute.
