Brendan got it first. Now Ellie is sick too. David and I can't be far behind. The stomach flu has come to our house.
Comfort. Scrub. Bathe. Launder. Cuddle. Repeat.
Despite their ailments, my patients really couldn't be any sweeter. "Is it okay if I just stay in my jammies today?" Brendan asked. "My tummy isn't feeling like its usual self," Ellie declared at about nine o'clock last night -- shortly before getting really, really sick.
We are hoping that this skips little Colin who seems entirely too small to endure something like the stomach flu. Ugggh.

Poor kiddos!
We got it last month (see http://bunchofbensons.blogspot.com/2009/02/i-spoke-too-soon.html) The 2 month old was spared, according to our pediatrician, because he is breastfed. Of course I got so dehydrated, he did get a few bottles of formula. Her suggestion to keep it from wiping out the entire house was - wait for it - hand washing. Gee, never would have thought of that... (insert eye-roll.) Good luck to you - may your stay in mega-laundry land be short.
Poor things! Hope you, David, and Colin are able to avoid it and that E and B are better soon!
Something is going around school I bet. Nik fell asleep at AFTERSCHOOL and Mike had to wake him up to take him home. He's gotten sick once...so far...Lukas is running around like the maniac he is so I hope he doesn't get whatever his brother has.
Stay well--at least we can open the windows and air out the house a bit!
Oh, I hope you are germ-free and on the mend! The flu is SO yucky!! I hope baby Colin didn't get it! :(
Love your blog. You have some great info on here.
If you get a chance check out my blog http://chachingqueen.blogspot.com
I have a blog to help people make and save money. I post only legit and practical ways real people can either make some extra cash or save when purchasing everyday items. I’m actually writing an ebook with this information and more.
Anyway, I’m still looking for more info to include in the book. If you have written a post or article relating to ways to make and save money I’d love to include it in my book. In exchange I’ll give you a free copy of the book once completed, short bio with link to your blog/web site (free publicity) in the book, and possibly affiliate privileges to sell the book. If you are interested you can read my blog and leave a comment or email me at chaching512@aim.com
Also, I’m working on a neat program/feature for my site. Now all I need is a good programmer. If you know of anyone that has experience writing programs for web pages that are also compatible with online networking sites (ex. Facebook) please pass the word along. Have them email me at the above address or leave a comment on the blog.
Thanks,
