Poopy Weekend







Well, our weekend started off "poopy" and continued to go downhill from there!



Lily kicked off our Saturday morning by going poo-poo on the big girl potty! Woo Hoo! First time ever! It was a BIG DEAL over here! Sorry for posting such a gross picture, but this is a very monumental poop. We were very excited and beaming with pride over this pile of doo yesterday. Phone calls were made. Congratulatory hugs and kisses were handed out. Lily kept hugging me saying "I'm so proud a you!" Truly great times!



Unfortunately, the rest of our weekend has been less wonderful.



Lily is not feeling well AT ALL. Actually, our Saturday didn't start with the morning poop. It started at about 4 am, with Lily crying, coughing, and trying to catch a breath. It was so sad. She was obviously so miserable, but her chest was so conjested she couldn't get a good breath, and therefore could hardly speak. At one point, she pointed at her mouth, looked up at me with the sweetest, saddest eyes, and whispered "momma help me"... it broke my heart!



She refused to take any medicine at that point, but managed to cough a few times and found a little relief. We watched one of her "Praise Baby" videos for awhile and she finally fell back asleep.



She is still feeling pretty crappy. If she isn't better tomorrow, I am taking her to see our doctor.
Until then, we will be doing more of the same: watching "The Sound of Music", snuggling, sleeping, nose wiping, and taking our meds every 4 to 6 hours.
Hope you all are having less poopy weekends! If you have a moment, say a little prayer for my pumpkin!

Poop in the potty = Success!!!

So sorry that Lily isn't feeling well, it stinks when they feel so yucky and we can't make it go away.

OMW.....you already know you have our prayers! I think "help me Momma" would have pushed me over the edge! Hang in there....take her in tomorrow...that will give you some peace of mind!
Hugs to you and Lily pie!

Great job on the toilet training Lily! We sure hope you are feeling better soon over there! Saying prayers your little sweetheart feels better real soon, how miserable!

Anne Marie said...

Good job on the potty, Lily!!

Wow, she really looks an unhappy camper -- you captured it perfectly in the photos. I hope Lily is feeling better very soon.

Poor baby!! I do hope she feels better soon. But for the poop...way to go!!

BTW, The Sound of Music is my most favorite movie and I watch it whenever I'm feeling down or need a pick-me-up.

I wanted to let you know that I'm hosting a slumber party at my blog for the Ultimate Blog Party and you are included. Hope that's ok, you may get a visitor or two!

eew eew eew! gross picture! but i can understand your excitement over the excrement! lets just hope lily doesnt find out ten years from now that you posted a picture of her doodoo for the world to see! ha! :)

i am so sad to hear she's sick. that always seems so unfair to me when little ones are so sick, and they dont really understand whats going on - or that they are ever going to get better...

i'm praying. and btw, you are SO good about blogging!! it's hard to keep up! :)

Emmie said...

Did you ever ever think something so poopy could make you feel so happy? Hope Lily feels better, sweet thing!

I hope Lily is feeling better today, how awful to feel lousy, especially when she should be celebrating being a "big girl", she (as well as your family) are in our thoughts and prayers!!

I'm sorry to hear that Lily isn't feeling well. I hate it when Hannah has a hard time breathing. It is very scarey.
