Sickness

Sickness amendment...  So I updated on Christmas saying how we're all doing... here we are now.

Ada still has a low grade fever but it hasn't been over 101 since Christmas Day.  She has a croupy cough.  (Been sick for 8 days)

Sam just started getting sick yesterday.  Has a fever of 103 and a dry cough.  (Sick for 2 days)

Evelyn just finished her antibiotics for a sinus infection in time to get this flu stuff.  She had a two day fever but has a really nasty phlegmy cough.  (Sick for about 5 days)

Jeremy had a fever, chills, and dry cough.  (Sick for about 7 days)

Me, I have a sinus infection... one that I've had for at least 3 weeks... just got on antibiotics for it.  Now I've had a three day fever and am starting in on the cough.  (Sick for about 3 days)

Family is all about sharing right?   My sister-in-law got her kids to the doctor and they said that it's Influenza A... about 10 days of fever and 3 weeks of coughing.  Now we know what to expect. 

I don't mind being sick, I don't even mind being sick with the kids... what I do mind is the whole cabin fever feeling.  I usually have to get out of the house about once a day... after having Evelyn it turned into every couple of days and out in the neighborhood once a day... a week home with sick kids and not wanting to spread it... I'm glad that we sick cousins and family that we can go visit.

We are feeling rather cooped up too. Glad we can all hang out this weekend even if it is amidst bottles of cough medicine.

This is such a fun family.  They're sweet and playful.  It's fun to get to know them and try not to freeze in the cold rain!  It was...
