It's been a while

Well I have been on hiatus for a while. Jersey was sick and me not getting any sleep, so when she went to bed, so did I. I have now realized that it wasn't her medication that gave her the cramping and runs, it was just a flu she happened to catch, not once but twice. Now back onto the baby Zantac. Exciting, or so one might think, but seems like NOTHING is changing. She isn't sleeping any better, she is still restless and seems in pain when she wakes but I don't know from what. Frustrating. The Dr. said next trip we will go get some upper GI tests done. Which is great, but I don't have much time since I start work at the end of July and I won't have all the time in the world to go and do things. I have to reschedule us to go and see him to say that there is no change. I know that there has to be some sort of light at the end of this tunnel, I feel like sleeping all the time. When I am not sleeping, I wish I was and when I am I want nothing to wake me...oh peaceful sleep, how I miss you.
Another reason for my lack of posting is due to us going to spend some time with my parents. They have a nice house with great toys for the kids and most of all, a lovely heated pool. The only problem was that we only got to go in it a couple of times, it rained a lot while we were down there. We took the time to go to the Peterbourgh Zoo, which is awesome, as you might notice by now Nikyla loves animals. We also visited the Cobourg beach. This is one of the best beaches I have ever visited, an awesome splash pad, 3 jungle gyms, swings and other little play things, let alone the sand and lake Ontario water to play with. It was a nice visit, and I didn't have to do any cooking or cleaning :) Then I get back home and the hubby has cleaned the house, how nice this was...and a little expected, he did after all have pretty much 5 days to himself. ( and I only wish for about 5 hours to myself for sleeping) I did get to sleep in the next day, it was nice, very nice. I wish I could do that every day.
Nikyla is a great fly by the seat of the pants girl, up for anything at any time. However she is starting to come out with and quite easily starting to pick up not swear words but more like cuss words. Damn it, oh crap, stuff like that. So I have started to make funny words that she will want to use instead of just saying that isn't nice to say.
Jersey is very mobile and pulling herself up all the time and always right with Nikyla. Nikyla the odd time really doesn't want to share with her or for Jersey to be around but usually she is great and I really give her credit for that. Who wants to share everything all the time anyway, I ask her things she doesn't want to share to put up in her room and she can play with them there on her own.
