Last week of September


The last week of September marked our first bout of fall illness. I knew this was going to be a bad year of "sicky" kids because it's really the first time the kids have been exposed to lots of kids in the church nursery for Mia and preschool for Tyler. It started out with Mia getting a cold. Then Tyler got a fever. Then Mia got a fever and rash covering her entire body from the palms of her hands to the soles of her little feet. Then Tyler started throwing up. The week just went downhill from there. We found out Tyler had strep and Mia had a sinus infection and viral rash. My plea to the doctor, "please get them better before I have to get on a plane with them." My mom was calling multiple times a day to get a status report. She was so worried we were going to have to postpone our trip. We ended up spending the entire week isolated at home. Doing crafts, making pillow forts and reading seven hundred Dora and Diego books and we got everyone healthy 2 days before our trip.
