sick Sick SICK!

No pictures for this update … just a rant. We can’t seem to get or stay healthy around here. Someone in our house has been sick for going on three weeks now! It started with Hannah, who had a low grade fever, and then a cough for a week and a half. While she had her cough, Jackson started running a fever .. which lasted three days. The boy is apparently prone to fevers. According to our ear thermometer, he spiked to 103 degrees at one point. Once those fevers started going away, Hannah got sick AGAIN (or is it that she was still sick .. dunno). This time, she was throwing up every night for three days. One of those nights she was heaving about every half hour. Needless to say, Jackson was the only one who slept that night. By this time, Jackson was developing HIS cough .. and lost his voice. This was quite amusing, I hate to say. Sadly, at the same time this was going on, Jen and I were both sick with a cough and flu symptoms. This was last weekend.
So, this week everyone started feeling better and we thought we were finally through it. Then, on Thursday, Jackson’s fever came back. According to the thermometer, this time it was running around 102 degrees. He had no other symptoms, but the fever at that level is concerning. We kept a close eye on him, and it went away by Saturday.
THEN … we thought we were through. Nope. This afternoon Hannah took a nap. She only naps when she’s not feeling well. She woke up, and sure enough … she said she has a sore throat.
AAAAAGH!
