For the last 2 weeks, "something" has been running rampant in our house. I say "something" because I couldn't distinguish if it's a cold or the kids' allergies that are bothering them. It started with the Princess, who gave it to the Fire Pig, who in true form, gave it right back to his sister. Just this past Friday, Ethan started showing signs of being sick, while both Vanessa and Jeff were slowly recovering.
And did I mention Scott left for Washington, D.C over the weekend?
Yep, he left me at home with 3 sick Crack monkeys.
Anyway,the weekend was spent mostly sleeping, but we did manage to make it up to my parents' house for Sunday dinner...where my brother promptly accused my kids of being carrier monkeys for disease and sickness, lol. Not that I blame him; they get sick after my kids visit.
Vanessa still has a slightly congested nose, while Ryan only had a headache, so they were able to go to school this morning. Wouldn't want them to miss the all important School Picture Day, lol!
Jeff has fully recovered, so he's been driving me crazy, as usual. Ethan, however, is still complaining of aches and a sore stomach, all the while sneezing and coughing. Poor dude was supposed to start back to school today, but it was a no go. We did get to meet his new bus driver, Rafael, when he came to pick Ethan up; I LOVE that Ethan's new pick-up time is now 7:30 am, which means he doesn't have to wake up so early, which also means no more 5am exercising for me, woohoo!
So here I am, just chillin' with one energetic kid and one sick boy who desperately wants to go to school. If he rest all day today, then we can try for school tomorrow. Until then, I guess I'm at his beck-and-call. ;-)
