cough.. couGH....... COUGH...........ugh

Well, we have all been sick now for over a week. This bug has taken its toll on all of us, and we are ready for it to be gone! It's too bad that you don't become immune to colds after having one once. Needless to say, we didn't go to church AGAIN. I think this is the 6th week, or maybe the 7th, that we have missed. Well, we're staying away until I know we are all better. There is no use exposing an entire congregation to this stuff. At least we are not nursery coordinators anymore, like we were at our last church. We needed to be there every Sunday, and that just wouldn't work right now!

Sammy has had a fever of 100-103 for the past three days. He is still a bit more warm than usual today, and has been moping around and willing to snuggle at a moment's notice. Griffin had a cough for a few days, but his has lightened up considerably. Mike and I have been up and down for the past few days. I'll just say... it is a good thing he was on vacation this past week, because he would have missed a lot of work anyway! We both have chest congestion and head colds, and are just waiting for the madness to end.

The good part about all of this is that is has forced us to stay at home more, spending time together and relaxing. It has been a restful week, and that is nice.

Mike and I stayed up and wrapped all of our Christmas presents last night. Well, he wrapped. I made bows. He had to stop and wait for me to catch up, because I like to be just a bit elaborate with my bows, so each gift took me a while. We had fun, but were very tired and ready for bed when we were done.

Well, Griffin is waiting for me to change his diaper, so I suppose I had better end here.
