We've got the bug...

I could almost say that we made it all winter without any sickness in the house. But...we didn't quite make it. That being said...it's been a horrible week! Claire was the first to get sick, and i'll spare you the details, but she had a pretty high fever and everything that goes along with that. This started Tuesday night, but Friday she seemed to be getting better. Crawling around and happy. Malia threw up Thursday night and stayed home from school Friday. she is better now. Brent came home from work Friday night with the chills and seems to be feeling better tonight. Claire's fever has come back and i'm starting to worry a bit. She is drinking bottles, but hasn't eaten anything all day...or for the past few days. Her fever is 101. I'm one of those parents who is reluctant to bring their kids into the dr. because it seems like every time I do i'm told to "keep and eye on it and come back if it gets worse." So I don't know at what point I should bring her in? Just keep her in your prayers because she is not doing well! We need our happy little girl back. Luckily i've avoided everything so far...after a week of nasty diapers and loads of nasty laundry it's pretty amazing. I feel like a housebound housewife...going a little stir crazy. So, sorry nothing fun to report. Claire's first birthday/Easter is next Sunday so hopefully we'll all be healthy for that fun day!
