It has been beautiful here in Sacramento the last few weeks but unfortunately we aren't getting to enjoy it at all because our house has been hit by the flu.
Charlie spent all last week home from school with the flu and on Friday I took him back to the Doctors because he stayed up all night crying on Thursday saying his ears hurt. Turns out both of his ears were infected. After a few days on Antibiotics he seems 10x's better.
Annie came down with a fever on Thursday. It was 103 but she didn't really have any other symptoms. On Saturday her fever got up to 104.5 and she was just lethargic on the couch all day. We took her into urgent care and surprise she has pneumonia. Yesterday she was up playing around but today she says her head hurts and she is back to laying on the couch. The doctor said after a few days on Antibiotics she should be feeling much better
Audrey has run a slight fever off and on for a few days now and she seems to have a continually dripping nose but sometimes I wonder if that is par for the course when you are 1. She is starting to get a cough and she is super cranky, but I am keeping my fingers crossed that this is the worst of what she gets.
John seemed to have a version of this few weeks ago and is doing OK now. I have had a headache for a few days now but I don't think mom's really can get sick so I am just repeating that over and over to myself.
We had a low key Valentines day at home last week. John brought home a heart shaped pizza and the kids and I decorated heart shaped cupcakes that afternoon. On Friday I ran to both kids classrooms and got their valentines so they could open them. I think they really enjoyed that but I felt bad for them that they had to miss their parties. When I ran into Charlie's classroom his teacher said there were only 10 out of 18 kids at school that day.
The week before that though John's dad came for a visit. We had a really nice visit with Joe here. John and Joe went out on one of their traditional Father/Son dinners and then we spent the weekend at home visiting. The kids loved getting to see Pop! Audrey thought Pop was hilarious, she would walk up to him and just start laughing non-stop. They are also looking forward to Nan coming to visit them next month.
John is going to Las Vegas this week for a business trip but his friend Dante is going along for the road trip (they have to haul a bunch of water filter's and display booths to the convention he is attending). I think John is looking forward to mini-vacation/business trip and hopefully they have a great time.
