10/4/20 – I Ate Zero…

You came to my room around 5:30am. You told me you took your night pants off already & you wanted to sleep nakie. You got up at 6:30a to pee & went back to sleep until about 8:15a. Daddy left around 4am for North Carolina for a work trip.

When you woke up, you came out of my room crying because your neck hurt. I was in your room straightening up for our house showing today. I rocked you in your chair then you said “I wanna call my Dad” so we did. You cried so hard about your neck and he was able to console you. It was so sweet. You came back to the living room, laid on the couch & wanted to watch a movie. When that was over, you wanted to watch another movie. I offered you some options for breakfast, but you didn’t want anything. I first, I was like, this is great, then you aren’t tearing up the rooms I just prepared for the showing. However, as the day went on, I became more concerned with your lack of energy.

When 11:30am rolled around, I was packing up to leave because the showing was scheduled for 11:45a. You were happy to jump in the car and excited that Harry was going in the car with us. We dropped off a donation at Goodwill & called Grandma Noot. You chatted her ear off lol. We drove back to our neighborhood and parked by the mailboxes until the people left. You were still in your jammies and not interested in changing.

When we got back home, I offered you lunch. You asked for a grilled cheese & frozen cherries. You ate literally a half a bite of sandwich & one cherry. You asked me to make broccoli soup for dinner. I needed groceries and asked if you wanted to go to the store and you said no. You wanted to watch another movie. I ordered groceries to be delivered from Whole Foods. You thought that was the most amazing thing! Around 3p you wanted to get off the couch and go lay in my bed. You wanted me to carry you all day, to the bathroom, the bed, the living room. You were so lethargic. It was definitely an “I want my Mama” kind of day! I tried to give you a tepid bath, but you refused because you didn’t want your stamps on your feet from gymnastics to come off!

As soon as the groceries were delivered, you laid down on my bed and slept for 2 hours. Sandy & Emily Brophy stopped by to pick up our Halloween costumes that need alterations. While they were visiting you woke up & came out to the living room crying hysterically. You climbed into my lap on the couch and I rocked you until you calmed down. A few minutes later, you were snoring on my shoulder. Grandma Noot came over to have soup with us & brought some broccoli (somehow it wasn’t in my delivery order). When I went to lay you down on the couch you were upset. I just needed to cook really quick. You finally laid down. You didn’t end up eating any soup at all. We watched two more movies. You were mostly snoozing since 3:30p with a few periods of wakefulness. Throughout the day you got worse, looked worse and felt warmer.

Grandma Noot left around 8. You wanted to Facecall Daddy, Aunt Deb and Ms. Sandy. You told everyone “Mama need groceries & I didn’t feel like leaving, so she had the groceries delivered to the house!” You also told them all “I ate zero of my soup” making a zero with your fingers for additional emphasis lol. Before hanging up the call with Daddy, you told him “Mommy is cozy. I like to snuggle with her. Mommy has big boobs.” Daddy was in the hotel lobby with Mr. Tom & they were both cracking up! I finally got you to eat a little applesauce around 10p. We watched Moana – our 5th movie of the day and then headed to my room around 11p. You asked me “can we check out what’s on Paw Patrol?” I turned it on, you snuggled next to me & we were both asleep in no time. I woke up around 1am & shut the TV off. I hope you feel better tomorrow!

I love you so much!
