Yucky Sick

This past month Mike has been rotating in pediatrics. He has enjoyed it- but has not enjoyed what has resulted from treating so many kids with the flu. Yep- Wednesday he came home complaining of a horrible headache, a fever and loss of appetite. He has since not left the house. He has been pretty sick with awful body aches, a congested head and cough. The following day on Thursday, I lifted up Collin and threw my back out. Really painful but nothing funnier looking than a big pregnant lady walking severely crooked.
Today was Samantha's primary program, she worked hard and had her part memorized so of course she was majorly disappointed when she woke up with a fever and couldn't go. Then to boot it was also my week to teach in R.S.- luckily the education counselor was so understanding and took over the lesson for me.
Now all 4 of us are sick, not at all fun- but we're making the most of it- we'll just chalk it up to making memories.....especially since we have not been able to do some of the Halloween fun that we had planned- there's always next year!

That is awful! Nathan got sick this weekend and it was NO fun. I can't image having a whole family of sick people. How are you doing with the flu and pregnancy? Hope that doesn't complicate anything.

Awww...that's not good. I hope you all recover quickly! It's terrible (sometimes) to have husbands at ground 0 isn't it?
Jeff brought us all a cold last week and it's really hard to have the whole fam sick.

I guess you guys got it! That is the worst. Wish I could bring you some chicken noodle soup. No fair. I need to be closer. We're send lots of "get well" magic your way!

Bobby has never been as sick as when he did his ped's rotation. I think it's the only time he's ever had to call in sick since his third year. I'm sorry you all got so sick and that poor Samantha couldn't go to her primary program and your back! Bummer!
