Well, we’ve been hit with out first real sickness of the winter. I’ve got some pretty sick kiddos, but man it’s nice now that they’re older. Gone are the days of kids just crying and wanting to be held.  Enoch and Jubilee have been hit pretty hard. I’m pretty sure they have the flu. High fever, chills, lethargy, loss of appetite. Avi and Tucker seem to have recovered for the most part. Hezekiah is mildly sick. Tilly “didn’t feel good” for one day…but she rarely gets sick. I’ve got a cold and Apollo was up coughing in the night. His breathing sounds like a clogged garbage disposal, but he isn’t struggling. He and I both got a flu shot (first time ever, but the flu would be dangerous for him- and there’s nothing worse than mom being sick…) I think we just have a cold…no fevers, etc.

Judah was helping out with a fellow Boy Scout’s Eagle Project yesterday afternoon. He needed a ride and Chuck suggested I come along so we could have a mini-date. We left the kids at home watching movies (they’re under the weather, after all) and headed out. We walked around Fairhaven, like the cool, hip people do. We grabbed some Mexican food for lunch.

Then headed to Katie’s Cupcakes for coffee and dessert.

Back at home Chuck and Apollo had a coffee break. We stayed home from church today…deciding we’d keep our germs to ourselves.

{It has been brought to my attention that there have been some unsavory ads at the bottom of my site recently…I am working on this, I promise. As always, it is a priority to me too keep this family friendly. It should be resolved within a couple of days. Also, I finally completed my “Meet the Kids” page if you are interested in that. I am working on imbedding my Blog Frog community into the blog here, so we can continue our discussions over there without having to leave the page. It is currently unusable, but should be up soon}
