Happy New Year!


It's been a rough week. Both E and O are sick, and we have to give E breathing treatments every 4 hours. Hopefully, both girls are on the mend and next week will be better.

It's been nice to not think about this blog, and I'm feeling a little ambivalent about continuing it. However, I'm sure that I'll get back into a blogging mood eventually...

  1. Sorry you have to go through the breathing treatments -- he looks so calm for them! Our son screamed the entire time we held the mask there at that age. :/ He is 2 now, and also has a cold, but now we can give him a puff through an inhaler attached to a spacer mask instead and WOW is it easier! Hope you all feel better soon.

  6. I hope your kids are better soon! I can understand that this blog can feel overwhelming at times but for what it's worth I LOVE it! I copy nearly everything you do! My daughter is the same age as O which is perfect. And I was so thrilled when you had your second baby just a couple months after my second because I was hoping to follow along with your ideas for E with my little one!!! I hope you continue!

    I love your posts and will be disappointed if you stop blogging, but I completely understand the need to reprioritize. :)

  17. Darn. I just found you. Guess I'll have to satisfy myself with the archives until you get re-bugged.

    I'm so sorry about the kiddos being sick. Hope things turn around soon.

    Happy New Year!

  18. I hope your little ones feel better soon. I have to do breathing treatments every once in a while for my twins. It does really relax them, but it is time consuming it what can already be a busy day with two little ones.

    I have only recently found your website and I have loved all the articles I have read. I can't imagine how you have two little ones, work, do all the creative and educational things you do and find the time to take pictures, download them and blog like you do.

    I'm sure a break would be nice for you. Thank you so much for all the information you have provided. If you do decide to continue, I'm sure a lot of people will be happy, but be sure to do what is best for you and your family. In the end, that is what is important. Happy new year.

  20. We have had to use the nebulizer on both of our little ones too. My son who is 3 1/2 has asthma so every illness seems to go straight to his lungs.
    You do such a wonderful job with your blog, I just found it a few months ago and have been so grateful for all the great ideas! I am sure it is alot of work. It would be sorely missed!
    I am hoping your girls get well soon!

  21. I adore your blog and I am inspired by it. It's one of my favorites! But you have to do what is right for you. Whatever you do I am sure you will continue to be a great mom doing all that you can do for your girls. Thank you for sharing your ideas and teaching others to be better moms!

  22. I hope your girls are better soon. I have a 7yr old that I have to give routine breathing treatments to and have since she was 4 months old. It's no fun.
    I also hope you continue your blog, I love reading about all the fun activities you do with your girls. I'd be sorry to see it end.

    Speedy recoveries!!

  24. That picture reminded me of when my oldest daughter, now 20, was little and had severe asthma. It's rough when you have to deal with breathing difficulties, especially in little ones. Sending you and your family prayers for a speedy recovery.

  29. Our son had to have breathing treatments as an infant, too. It's hard... hope your babes feel better soon!
    I know I'm the 29th person to say this, but I love your blog and it was the first I found when I ventured into homeschooling. You have been a huge source of inspiration - thank you for that!
    Of course I'd miss your posts if you decided to discontinue your blog, but in my opinion it's MUCH more important to focus on family. Follow your heart.

  30. Poor girls! Breathing treatments are no fun.

    I've really enjoyed your projects. They have given me much inspiration for activities to do with my children. But there are definitely seasons of life, and if this season is one to let go of the blog, then I wish you the best.
