Passing the Bug

Kherington started our family with the stomach flu.

Then I got it for two days.  I don't normally catch what the kids have, but apparently it wasn't my lucky day.  I can't remember the last time I felt so weak.  Not only did I throw up multiple times (I will do almost anything to not throw up) but my whole body was in pain and I had zero energy.  I laid on my bed while the kids did whatever they wanted.  I had to go get Kherington from school and I couldn't believe how much energy it took to get out the door and walk 3 minutes to his school.

Next up was Kevin.  Ryan had an all day/night team building activity a couple hours away on a Friday night and I thought I'd get a lot of stuff done.  Kids went down then about 30 minutes later Kevin was pounding on the door.  I opened it up to a great big whiff of throw-up.  I'm not sure how much of it was actually the flu instead of having something large stuck in his throat from not chewing before swallowing.  He came out of his room ready to play and I let him while I sprayed down his bedding and did a couple loads of laundry get get it all clean.
To finish it up Ryan got it and just his luck he got it on a weekend so he didn't get to use his free sick days.

Now that we've all been sick, I'm hoping we are done for the next year :).
