Yes, sadly you are reading the title right. It all started last week when poor little Stella got the flu, and now it has successfully passed through Trevor, Tehmi, Debbie, Trace, Hunter, Heather, TJ, and Finley. Luckily we have not had it for 8 days like Stella, but let me tell you, IT IS NOT FUN!! It's honestly sad to say that Micall and Brian are just ticking time bombs of when they'll get it. All the adults have had it for only twelve hours but poor Fin just got it today and who knows with her little system if it will pass by 2 am. We are a family that likes to stick together and do everything together so hey, why not all go through puking our guts out together. Brian has put our house on quarantine for the next 48 hours, this is after we took Fin to my parents this morning to hopefully save her from the bug, but it is persistent and got her anyway.
I'll tell you what, it is the saddest thing in the world to be a mom with a sick little girl. So helpless and not sure what is going on. When she pukes, she looks at you and says "I sorry mama, I sorry." Makes you want to just cry. Oh, and the piles of laundry piling up, bowls and towels all over just in case, and coke (even in the sippy cups), and ice chips ready for who feels up to it. Brian has been super good about helping, cleaning up, rubbing backs, pulling back hair, running and getting coke slurpee's, ice chips, and letting Fin through up all over him and just keeping her calm.
It's a flu war zone around here and I wouldn't recommend coming and visiting for at least a week.
Sorry today wasn't a day worthy of pictures but I do have to say Thank You to my sweet husband who has been handling two super sick girls all day.
