Sick & gifts
UPDATE: I’m positive Alice has the flu. She threw up last night, has been fevery, little appetite, body shakes. Poor wee thing. One molar is coming in, too. Let’s hope the flu starts and ends with her, though, and doesn’t spread to the rest of us. I’m feeling Lucy’s forehead every 5 minutes (she now ducks when she sees my lips moving in for the kiss/heat-sensing feel), and offering prayers to the Sick Gods to spare us.
Had to get Alice early from daycare this morning. She’s got a fever and a river of goo descending by the second from her nose.
The light is now glistening off of the bottom of Lucy’s nose as a cold settles in.
I knew when we hit week three of healthiness that something was going to hit — isn’t that always the way?
Posting will be light as I care for m’girls.
Care to share what you are asking for for Christmas? Or getting your kidlets?

They’re getting clothes too, nothing too exciting for anyone.
Best thing we’re getting is a post-Christmas present … a new kidney
Congrats on the new kidney! I agree, the best present you could ask for. I will be thinking of your family and hope your husband has a speedy recovery. Certainly keep us posted!
As for gifts for my little man, nothing too much as he’s just going to be 2 in December, as was kind of scared of Santa when I took him the other day. A vacuum cleaner will be his “Santa” gift as he is obsessed with cleaning and already has a touch of mommy’s OCD (LOL) topped out with a wide variety of books, his second obsession.
Thanks April
I certainly will update everyone .
I meant my little man will be 2 in January…time is slipping me by!
