Even though February is the shortest month of the year some times it feels like the LONGEST month of the year, like this February has been the longest February in History (for us anyway).
I'm pretty sure one or more of us in our little family has suffered a sickness every day in February. Maybe not quite, but it has felt like it. It started out with me getting some weird stomach bug again. I HATE throwing up, can I just say that?! I HATE IT!!! I had this awesome bug the day of Eden's Secret Garden Play and I had to miss it. I was so bummed! It was either miss it or go to the play and most likely throw up on the row in front of me, no thanks and You're Welcome!
Then the next weekend Jonah boy started to get sick and we ended up in the ER on a Saturday night with him suffering from Croup. My poor asthmatic kid, he gets it every year! He is still coughing from it, but it's slowly going away. That next weekend Lulu got croup. It's miserable for babies to be sick but I think it's just as hard on us Momma's to watch them suffer through being sick, it's so heart breaking. After coughing night after night and snot galore I took her in to the Doc and of course she had an ear infection, thankfully that's an easy fix. Just as she's getting better I get this nasty croupy cold along with Cory. It was a nasty bug that lasted at least 7 days and I still have a cough/mucus from it, it's been two weeks. Eden has now joined in on the nasty mucusy, coughy sickness, thankfully it's not as bad for her.
This last week I just wanted to end February with a bang I guess and I got UTI, not uncommon for me, I get them all the time. It's those cute kiddos of mine, they ruined me, but they were worth it. Any way...UTI, no biggie or so I thought, but then it decides to turn into a Kidney infection. Lovely! So I had the wonderful opportunity of being in the ER for five hours so I could get it diagnosed and taken care of. I just thought I'd keep up with this February theme of "Let's just be sick all the time" theme. So now I'm pumped full of antibiotics too and hoping March brings Healthy bodies and dare I ask for more sunshine? But ya know what I'll just settle for no more sickies in this house that would be great!
That's the end of my "I hate February" rant.
Here's to the best March ever! Right? Please!

Oh, Kristen. That is SO sad. I'm sorry that you've all been so sick. This February has been a doosy for us too. So, YES! Here's to March! Healthy.
Yikes! That sucks! Hopefully you are all in for a healthy stretch.
