Some days cabin fever is just thick in the air in this house. I feel the need to get out, especially when my little ones are sick. Yes, yet another cold has put up tent at Camp Chapeau...how many is that since November? 6 colds or 7? Times that by 3 kids, or 5 (depending if Mommy and Daddy get it), that is a lot of indoor time and a ton of boxes of Kleenex (even when they are cut into 3rd or 4ths)!
Yesterday, all Saray did was lay on the couch sipping ice water (that was all she would drink, and no eating - not by my choice) and watched short 30 minute videos, or laid on the floor listening to music by Alberto and Kimberly Rivera with 3 blankets piled on due to another wave of fever chills. I hate it when my kids are sick...I really do!
Grayson has also been dealing with this cold, but he's pretty easy, he just takes an extra nap on top of his normal 2; surprisingly, most of the time he wakes up happy even if he isn't feel good.
So far, Josh hasn't shown any signs of sickness, but it is only 6am on 3rd day of the cold invasion.
I feel horrible, mostly due to the fact that I really dislike dealing with sick kids, it's so draining, on every level.
Hurry up Spring & Summer, we are itching to get out; we can't wait to ride our bikes, walk in the park, visit the fish and ducks, play in the dirt, go to the water park, visit the snakes and turtles at Reptile Gardens, go exploring, etc. Please hurry.
Spring/Summer can not come quick enough.

A cold hit Ayla like a truck yesterday. I hate the mass amount of snot and buggers and her little coughing just breaks my heart. Like you, I just want to get her in some fresh air and out of the cooped up house. Luckily for us, it was 70 and sunny so we spent most of the morning playing outside. Pretty awesome for February!
