Our weekend

Brett was off this weekend! Yay! I love every other weekend, because the single parent thing on the weekend SUCKS! I don't know how single parents do it, I really don't. I applaud each and every one of you.
Friday night I went to see Eat, Pray, Love with one of my BFFs Mayda Marie. Brett had both babies asleep by 9:30 and had the rest of the evening to play his video games. I was shocked when we came out of the theater and it was 11:20! That movie was 2 hours and 20 minutes long! It didn't feel like it though, it was a good flick.
Saturday we got up and headed to Cabazon for the Thunder & Lightning Pow Wow. Can you believe I forgot my camera? ME! I forgot my camera. Stupid, stupid, stupid. I had never been to a Pow Wow before, it was very interesting. Too bad I picked the year where the weekend had record breaking heat and I had two kids. I guess before this year it would have been too easy. I love a challenge. Well Little Miss Sensory Processing Disorder WAS NOT a fan. Maryam had a rough time. I think the combination of heat, loud drums, lots of movement and a few thousand people wasn't a good combo for her. She was nervous. VERY nervous. She couldn't sit still, she didn't want to be inside the tent, she just wanted to sit with her back towards the show and be left alone or LEAVE! She kept saying things like, I have to go potty, I'm hungry, I need a nap, I WANT TO GO HOME!!! Ha! As soon as we left, she was fine!
Last night both kids got sick. Jax had a low grade fever, sores on the outside of his mouth and a cough. Maryam was coughing so much that she couldn't sleep. I was up with her from just after 1am until just before 5am, both of us are exhausted today. This morning Jax's fever was gone, but it was back this afternoon. Maryam had a fever earlier today and hasn't really stopped coughing since last night. I've been giving her honey and it seems to be helping a little. I hope that means its not respiratory. Ugh. Neither of them wants to eat, I'm guessing that they both have sore throats. Poor babies.
