the sickies

It is that time of year, we all knew it would happen...
The sickies invaded our house a little over a week ago.
It started with Baby Bear. She had a high fever and was stuffy, but hers seemed fairly short lived. She was 100% normal within a couple of days. Now she just keeps getting a stuffy nose (which I think could have something to do with it getting so cold here all of a sudden).
Next Papa Bear got sick. It started with his throat and then progressively just got way worse. He was as sick as a dog for a few days and is still slowly getting over it.
I thought that I had somehow avoided it since it had been a week and I still felt fine. I couldn't have been more wrong. It started slowly, but as soon as I had a sore throat I knew I had caught it. A couple of days went by, and it wasn't too bad, so I thought I had gotten off easy. I was, once again, wrong! I woke up three days ago with my throat on FIRE, and now it is my whole body that feels like crap. I am sore, horrible headaches, burning throat, stuffy nose, and just completely drained.
But as you know a mommy doesn't get a day off, so this one is just trying to fight through it. Who wants to come watch my child while I nap?!?! Haha!
