Are we done with the COLD?!

Both the temperature and the sickness!

This past week has been cold and blah!  Now I usually love cold weather.... but maybe I need to change my definition of cold.  I HATE being hot and sweaty...and I get hot and sweaty in the 80s.  So, if it could be like in the 60s all day, every day..I'd be a happy girl!  However in Texas it seems like it's either in the 30s or the 90s most of the year.  It might be in the 60s a few weeks out of the year.  Anyhow, so this week has been cold and blah. On Monday the boys started back at school and it took a few days for them to adjust.  On Thursday afternoon, I get a phone call from school saying that Ryan had a slight fever and I need to go get him.  Well I never know what to do about fevers.....should I take them to the Dr. or let the fever run its course?  Well...I almost always end up taking them to the Dr.  When I found out Ryan's buddy Kohen had also been sent home sick, I figured I should probably take him because something was going around.  After 2 hours, a strep test and a flu test, poor Ryan was diagnosed with the flu.  :(  He got to stay home with Nana on Friday while Nathan went to school.  I had to work for a little bit on Saturday morning so Jason watched the boys and all was going well until after Nathan woke up from his nap with a fever.....  Started him on Ryan's Tamaflu..  Then Saturday evening, who gets it?  That's right - Mommy!  BOO!  The boys seems to both be doing better but I am still just feeling overall yucky.  Hopefully the flu goes away from our house quickly!!

Our week in pictures:

Ryan's new thing - Trains.  EVERY.SINGLE.NIGHT he says he wants to go to Nana and Granddad's to see their Cho-Cho Train.  Pretty sure he's going to have a breakdown when we go and the Christmas train has been put up.  :(

Having fun Monday and Tuesday night playing Twister.  Nathan did pretty well!

Look at Nathan' split!

I wasn't kidding when I said it was cold this week.  This was on Thursday morning I think.

Ryan was NOT in the best of moods at the D.r's office Thursday

This is how he sat for 2 hours.....

He was DONE after the flu test!

Nathan Saturday afternoon.

What happens when mommy is sick?  Daddy cooks of course!  Chili Saturday and pinto beans and turkey Sunday.  YUMMY!  I think he needs to cook more!  However, not the best for my diet.

And when it's cold and raining outside and mommy is sick - you build tents of course!
