57...times I bragged about not getting it and having a better immune system than him
1.5...days after Ted was better when I got the bug. dammit
5...nights sleeping in a separate room from my husband
X...number of days since my last shower. I'm waaaay too embarrassed to say how long it's actually been since I've bathed. Let's just say I was overdue when I woke up Friday morning....and still haven't had one Sunday afternoon.
4...hours of puking
12...hours of fever
72...ounces of gatorade consumed
1...reassuring call from my doctor with a very specific explanation of what would require going to the hospital. Thankfully, none of those things have happened.
44...total hours I've been locked in my bedroom while Ted has completely cared for Hannah. I've been in here since 9:00 Friday night!
6...more hours to go until I can come out. I feel fine now but am waiting 24 hours until after my last fever in hopes that Hannah won't get it. This thing is SUPER contagious!
47...hours since I've held my little girl :(
47...hours since I've kissed my little girl :(
47...hours since I've played with my little girl :(
7...times that Ted has taken her out to play in the backyard so I can watch her from my window
236...texts between me and Ted even though he's just in the other room. The longer we can keep Hannah from figuring out I'm in here-the better!
12...seconds Ted has to drop off food and drink before Hannah starts hollering and comes looking for him.
6...times he's affectionately referred to her as his little "ankle biter"
1...father-daughter trip to the nursery to buy some grass seed for the backyard. And if you doubted that Ted is caring for her completely on his own, check out those socks with crocks :)
10...times I've thought, "I'm so grateful that I married a man who is capable of caring for his own children!" Not only is she fed, clothed, changed, and bathed-but the squeals of delight and laughter I hear outside my door indicate she's having a wonderful weekend.
100..times I've thought, "Why isn't the house falling apart without me? And why isn't Hannah asking for me every five seconds? Doesn't she miss me?!?!"
2...movies watched: Mirror Mirror (loved it! weird but wonderful!) and October Baby (I cried and cried!)
750...times I've checked Pinterest and/or Facebook. Come on people! Update so I have something to help me pass the time!
1...baby shower missed. Bummer. I had a really pretty dress picked out and was so excited to wear it.
1...Holy Mass missed. The only other time I've missed Mass in my adult life was when I was in labor with Hannah.
1...appointment with our doula missed.
1...afternoon spent with lots of great families at the Families Following Christ event missed.
0...productive things I've done with my time off. Organize and upload pictures-nope. Type that super long email I've been meaning to-nope. Work on our family photo books or shop early for Christmas online-nope and nope. But check fantasy football hourly? Or the SEC football scores all day yesterday? You bet.
20...times each hour I've felt this baby kick! I had no idea he was this active! It turns out, I just never sit down long enough to notice all the acrobatic stunts going on inside of me! And here I thought we were going to have a calm child....
15...hours until I get to see my sweet baby. I can't come out until after she goes to bed tonight, so I have to wait until the morning. Unless she wakes up in the middle of the night....which, for once, I'm actually kind of hoping happens.
5-4...my prediction for the Cardinal's score tonight. With St. Louis winning of course. It's on Fox instead of cable so we actually get to watch it! And it starts after my quarantined time is over so I get sit on the couch next to my husband! And eat popcorn because I'm confident I won't throw it up.
So how was your weekend? :)
