It must be the change in weather...
My baby is sick (picture taken previously) and my other two little guys are coughing. Just the other day, I was feeling grateful that we have not had any serious illnesses this season--our three little ones went through a two-day cold last month, quickly recovering. But the other night (Monday night), the baby woke up, crying and feverish. We gave him Motrin and he seemed fine yesterday (he's not coughing or anything!). Last night, he was soooo hot again. Even after a dose of Motrin, he was still hot. I dampened a cloth and periodically moved it to his neck, under his arms, forehead, etc. We finally fell asleep around 6 a.m.--I am so very tired today! I am afraid that a headache might be coming on--I'm about to take some ibuprofen. Around 9 this morning, our two middle boys crawled into bed with me and were coughing--I gave all three little ones medicine and went back to bed!
I am hoping that my headache is not the beginning of anything--and I have also been trying to ignore a little tickle in my throat...I will probably run to the drug store for Dayquil for myself, just in case...

I hope you guys feel better soon!!!!!
Sorry you guys are ill, hope this will pass as quickly as the last little cold. Take care, talk to you soon.
Oh my! Sorry your family is ill, but I know your a good mommy, and may God protect you from the ickies too!
Katherine~ Look into black elderberry for your family. They have it at the Health Food House. That has kept my girl from the doctors office for TWO years and NO antibiotics or other medications! They have a liquid and capsules. My girl didn't like the taste of the liquid that much so we we switched to capsules. I've heard Becca took it during her pregnancy with Zoe.
Hope this helps,

It might just be a pajama day huh? Hope everyone feels better fast.
I hope everyone is starting to feel better. We've had the cold thing here too and it just seems to linger.
I missed this post and I hope everyone is better by now! Two of my boys had the flu last week and the baby had pneumonia! We are all finally better now. Your little Pilot looks SO CUTE in that picture!
