WEEK 43: october 19-21...

october 21 -- in the middle of the morning i woke up with a bad tummy and i started vomiting. after that i went back to bed and tried to sleep. after a couple of minutes i heard isabelle crying. i went to their room and she said she had a tummy ache. she asked for food because she thought she was hungry so i gave her some crackers. after taking a couple of bites, she started vomiting too!!! oh gosh!! we have tummy-flu! she felt a little better after vomiting so she went back to bed. when rafael woke up early that morning, he started vomiting too. that's it...we were all sick!
sofia was vomiting the night before that so i guess we got it from her, but today she was feeling better. as you can see she is already trying to make herself a sandwich. but more of the spread went to her mouth directly than to her bread. at the end of it she didn't finish her bread.


october 20--just before my kids went to school, rafael read a book to isabelle. every now and then isabelle would bring home a book from the library. rafael was kind enough to read the stories to her sister. i just love seeing them like that. i remember i have taken a picture of them like this before. well... i just want to capture the same moment again!


october 19 -- had a doctor's appointment today. i am having some pain on my wrists espcially when i scrub (the kitchen floors, bath tub and the dishes) for a long time. a friend of mine (who is a doctor but is not practising here in paris) told me it can be something related to my tendons. she told me what it is called but of course i couldn't remember what is it...hahaha. so i had to see my doctor who can give me some prescriptions. anyway, so it is true.. i have something called... gosh, i couldn't recall the word!!! but all i can remember is i should buy something to protect my wrists. so here they are!!! i really don't know how this would help because i couldn't wear them while i do my scrubbing!!! well...whatever.
