Having one sick child is bad enough. But when all four (yep all of them) are sick at the same time with various viruses and differing symptoms, it doesn't leave much time for anything else. So once my days of pushing fluids, pumping everyone full of Motrin, cleaning up vomit and slathering ourselves in hand sanitizer are over - I promise to update.
Coming soon: pictures and stories from Taylor's birthday over the weekend.

I have never had all four sick at the same time. Or even three, that I can remember. I'm sure it is awful. I'm so so sorry about the cleaning up vomit gig. That for me is the very worst part of parenthood.
It is no fun when all of your kids are sick then they get you sick in turn. At least with them all sick you dont have to worry about illness running everyone at different times. Hopefully this means when they are all better, it's out of your house for awhile.
I hope not, but I think I am headed in that direction. McKinley's cold was feeling better, but last night she was running a fever and today she has the aches and a stomache ache. No vomit yet, but oh my it will go through all of us.
So sorry. I hate it when kids are sick, it is miserable.
Oh, I don't want to be you with everyone sick. I have one and that is MORE than enough.
Boo!! I hope everyoneis better soon!! When they are, you deserve a spa day!! Take care!
Just make sure you subtley remind them that when they pass their viruses on to you, that you expect the same quality care. Hope everyone gets to feeling better soon so you can enjoy this cooler weekend coming up. Or you could just pump them full of Benadryl and take the afternoon off!!!
That is what we have been doing the last week and half too! I feel for you!! I only had two kids throwing up though. I think the worst part is that you start getting stir crazy to just get out of the house! Hope everyone is all better soon!!
Hope everyone is feeiling better! We had a different kid sick last week. Stomach thing too! Makena puked in the car. IT was one of those moments where I hoped the Real Mom would step in and clean it up!
Bummer about the sick kiddos! Did you make the artichoke recipe? YUM! I'm doing another candle party - will you give the Secretary at Andrew's office my blog address? She wanted to know when I did another party & my e-mail address is on there. Thanks! I hope the kids are getting better!
I'm so sorry, that is just awful. Sick kids are no fun, I do love to have an excuse to cuddle on them for as long as I like.
Can't wait to see you guys on Sunday...the kids better be feeling good by then!
