Sick and Tired of being Sick and Tired!

So on my birthday I got sick. Pretty awesome huh? Tomorrow will be a whole week with this miserable cold. It hit me really hard. I have had pnuemonia three times and even that wasn't as miserable as this cold. I kept wondering why I felt so horrid. My TIP nesties and my bestie pointed out that I have a supressed immune system due to being preggo. I knew this, but I totally forgot. Being pregnant and sick is seriously the suck! I was scheduled for two days off work that I normally work. If it weren't for that and having 4 straight days off to rest, I wouldn't even be able to move.

I have been sleeping all day long and not doing much around the house. The one day I tried, I felt much worse later on that night and the next day. My hubby has been the best ever and I didn't even cook except the one night I tried. He bought me soup and Orange sherbert! Mmmmm. He also brought me things that were easy to eat and mushy because my sore throat was terrible. I barely spoke at all becuase it hurt so bad.

I'm almost over this hellacious cold. I think a couple more nights of really good sleep will do the trick. I have been taking Sudafed and some cough drops because that's all I really can take. I got my appetite back yesterday and boy was I hungry!

Arabella's kicks have been getting stronger and stronger! Last night Ollie was sleeping on my tummy and she kicked right where he was. So he moves more to my side and later on she kicked him again. It was super hilarious because he just gave me this look. Since I have been sick, he has been extra vigiliant, extra needy, and extra cuddly. Even Leo (who hasn't been as cuddly since I got Ollie) was sleeping on the couch with me.

My friends and family have been really awesome calling and checking on me. Heather finally came over last night because I was bored out of my mind and going stir crazy. She and I stayed up talking and chillin out. She crashed here and I dunno what the plans are for today other than to go up to where we work and eat for some good cheap food. Mmmmm! Now that I have my appetite back, I am going to be eating GOOD solid food!
