We have been VERY sick in these parts this past week! It is the first time that EVERY member of our family has been sick at the EXACT SAME TIME!!!
Olivia started with teething issues on Thursday, Thursday being the day Santaija (my sister) made the trek from Edmonton all the way to Vancouver to see us. So she screamed most of the way through Vancouver (this Mom hadn't connected the dots before we left home and was without pain meds, for me or her as she was crying and I was getting a headache from said crying). Then we both got hit with that nasty bug going around (Olivia + teething+ fever +cold+mommy's sick too= Worst week ever!!).
Marcus was only a day behind us with the nasty bug but made it seem like it wasn't as bad so he could take care of us. Sunday I was so out of it that my Mom had to come over and help me while Marcus was at church (he gave a talk on Sunday and filled in teaching my class for me). I could barely drag my feverish body out of bed! Luckily it hit us fast and furiously, we are now on the mend with some extra teeth floating around in Liv's mouth. My Mom for being of such amazing service to me is now being blessed by having the nasty bud herself and has been bed ridden since yesterday.
Any other time we've had sickness it has hit once at a time so it's easier to deal with, this was like a hurricane-crapstorm ran rampant through our house and we are picking up the pieces. (Quite literally as the house work has fallen very sub par, I've barely got it above dumpster status and is now almost livable).
On the bright side we didn't have to make any trips to the hospital, just heavily medicated ourselves, other friends of ours had it much worse -glad you are feeling better Kaitlyn!-.
I promise to be better at blogging now that we are on the mend ;)

glad your on the mend it's one thing to be sick yourself but to have to take care of other people (baby) it is really hard. next time call and I will come over and bring you what you need. we had a little bug here I had it and was like wow, Carson didn't get it that is amazing and then the next day he got it and Peter followed but not half as bad as yours!! Anyway look forward to more blogs:)
Glad to hear you're doing better. I think that everyone in Whatcom County has had either the flu or that nasty cold.
I thought something was missing in my life :) I'm glad to hear that you guys are feeling better.
I'm sorry you've been so sick, but glad you're feeling better!
