Almost over the flu...ugh

"Mama"...cry...cry.."Mama"...sneeze,sniffle,snort... Dada...Dada...cry...

Flu season has attacked again (and we even got the flu shot too!!)

The flu seemed relentless this time around. Beaner was so ill that she had to go to the hospital because she barfed so much she was collecting blood in her stomach. She is on the mend now but she went 7 full days with no food in her little tummy. Poor girl. She got so skinny. But we are fattening her up again. She's now on antibiotics for ear infections. Thank God for medicine. And for Children's hospitals!!! Bibs and Bel also were fighting the flu though without as much drama, or barf : ) . They are mostly over theirs as well. Bibby had ear infections too, and all 3 of them still have this lingering cough. Po seems to have picked the cough up too, but not the full fledged flu. And of course Mama just gets to nurse everyone else back to health. (No I'm not complaining...I just work through my icks).

Here's a pic that reminds me that parenting is worth it. My girls do love each other...they just show it when they think no one is watching. Sibling rivalry is a tough challenge! Especially for an Only-Child-Mama! Bel also started Karate tonight. I'll add pics when we get some.
