sickness sucks!


The past two weekends the Mom has been sick. Dustin was gonna take me out on the town, we had a babysitter and EVERYTHING. I started getting a pain in my breast and within hours I had a fever! It alway happens when my husband wants to take me out on a date! Guess we don't do it often enough!!! Since the infection came on a Saturday I thought I'd sweat it out after talking to a neighbor. Treated my self with heated massages, and Oil of Oregano rubs, and garlic pills. Saturday was rough but I never took a fever reducer and my fever never rose above 102. The week went okay and I took it easy until Thursday when I started back up on my workout routine. But then Friday night it all came back again, same breast! Mastitis is one of the worst things a mommy can get! Totally kicks you in the bummm! And to top it off Dustin was not home for the weekend and he didn't bring his phone with him. GRRRR! But I did step away from my natural healing methods and went to the doctor for some anti-biotics. I will be taking plentiful doses of pro biotics to reverse the effects of the loss of good bacteria in my body! So happy to be feeling better!!!

4th of July Weekend!

All the cousins had a blast when we went camping on the fourth. We went camping at Detroit with the whole Sellers family! The harriest moments were when the kids hurt themelves as they came speeding down the hill on their scooters wearing flip-flops and shorts. Dustin got many oohs and ahhs from his peanut butter-chocolate s'mores and many more were eaten than should have been. The best part about it for me was NOT having to hear fireworks all night cause no fireworks were allowed, just the big show over the lake and that was it! I know... that is just me getting old! Dustin was the best dad, uncle, brother, husband, and son again. He showed all the kids how to fish and let them all take a turn casting and holding the pole. The fish weren't biting this trip. Maybe next time! Here are just a few pictures I remembered to take.
