and sick again... and again...


Ashley started feeling better Sunday night; JUST IN TIME for the bug to travel it's course around all the girls in the family, including Kate!

By Monday night Kate had a fever, Anna woke up at 11 pm with a fever and mommy started with a sore throat. Luckily it was nothing more then a nasty virus that brought with it 2 doctors visits and some HUGE fights with Anna over taking medicine. So needless to say Tuesday consisted of an entire day of relaxing, reading and TV.

Yes, rewind to earlier. I said fights, and I mean FIGHTS! Screaming, kicking, tears, tears and more tears. Can we tell our children aren't used to medicine? She really has only taken medicine a couple of times, none that she would remember so it's not like she has bad memories of it, she just has no memories of it. Even purple like Barney medicine wouldn't work; it just made things worse because she would spit the bright purple stuff everywhere. After some serious attempts at negotiation that didn't work, she was pinned by both mommy and daddy and force fed the Tylenol. Seriously? It was a good thing that the fever only appeared 2 other times and medicine only had to be given 2 more times. Sad to report that went a tiny bit better but not much.

Finally it's Friday and my throat is finally back to feeling better. As for the girls they are pretty much 100% and ready to rock.

We just hate being sick. HATE it.

Much Love,
Jenny
