The Illness that keeps on giving

Well on Day 12 of Christmas I started to feel pretty sick.  A few hours later I was huddled under blankets with a 103 fever and chills.  My fever reached 104 and broke around Monday night.  I thought ok we are on the mend.  Well then I developed congestion, tons of pressure and head pain and a cough.  Woke up this morning after a night of not sleeping due to coughing and looked in the mirror and saw my eye was pink.  Woke kids up and their eyes were pink.  I went to the doctor first and my diagnosis is bacterial pink eye, ear infection, and upper respiratory infection.  Then for the kids we got double ear infections and pink eye for all.  So needless to say the 25 days of Christmas have not been happening over here.  We all have meds now and will hopefully recover in time to enjoy Christmas.  Sorry to everyone that enjoys our 25 days I hope to get through them all next year!

25 Days of Christmas - Day 11 (2015)

So we are having a sleepover.  Seemed like a good idea at the time.  Kids were excited.  But now I sit here with the lights and tv off at 8pm while the kids snore quietly.  I'm trapped.  Lol

25 Days of Christmas - Day 10 (2015)

Today I gave the kids these awesome pillow bed things.  I saw these on facebook and had a friend make them for me.  Went and bought $2 pillows at Walmart and voila.  The kids were soooo in love with them.  The fun part is they are part of tomorrow's day of Christmas too! 

25 Days of Christmas - Day 9 (2015)

We had so much fun today.  We met a mommy friend today and went down to the crown center area.  We went to legoland, had lunch, saw santa again, played in his gingerbread village, and played outside at the holiday playground because it was 60° out!

Today after preschool we made Christmas Rice Krispies treats.  I let the kids help as much as they could and cut out their own Christmas shape treats.  Noah really liked this activity but was not feeling the getting a picture before eating.
