Germs...AARRRRGH!

So my whole household is sick...bleh.  Joe has been getting better; he came home with the sniffles 10 days ago and now just has a residual cough.  Poor little Natalie has croup. The doctor gave her a steroid shot and I am supposed to keep an eye on her for the next few hours. If she doesn't improve by mid afternoon, they may admit her to the hospital for observation overnight.  I am praying hard that they don't have to do that!!  For one thing, she spent the first 18 days of her little life in the NICU.  That is enough hospitalization for a while!  For another thing, I currently have a sore throat, aches, and a sexy phlegmy voice that would make it great for me to moonlight as a 900 number dream girl but means I want to be in my bed and not a hospital chair.  So I have the vaporizer going and she is sleeping soundly.  I haven't heard any coughing for a bit...I am hoping that is a good sign!


I have been cleaning my house, and hanging pictures, for the last week.  Yes, I know we have lived here a year and it is pretty pathetic that I JUST hung pictures.  But when you buy a house and 3 days later find out you're pregnant, priorities shift just a little.  I have only my bedroom/bathroom to finish cleaning and then I am DONE.  School starts back a week from tomorrow.  I want pool and relaxation time next week, which means I need to be getting off my sick, lazy butt and finishing those things up.  But I have a lot of shows recorded on my DVR and a comfy bed calling my name.  The mop may just have to wait a while.  Keep praying for my ill little family and I will chat at y'all soon.  Have a great day!
