I'm On A Mission

To clean the whole house in hopes to wipe out every germ that is still lurking around here.

I've been in the Dr's office or Urgent Care 5 times in the past 6 days. The girls have been really sick, especially the babes.

2 have croup, 1 has strep, and 1 has both. My poor little ladies. Ella is the only one who hasn't caught anything (knock on wood!!).

After I left the Dr's office today, I took the younger 4 to Target to fill 2 more prescriptions and to pick up an extra humidifier. I didn't want to go in because Kinley and Raya were feeling so bad, but I had to, they needed the prescriptions. They all actually did pretty good, I gave them some crackers and let them look at some toys while we waited for our medicine.

But then Raya threw up. In the middle of Target. And I think I heard a muffled "she sure has her hands full" sweep across the onlookers who were standing there watching.

Oh well. I like having my hands full, it's our way of life :). I just like it better when my loves are healthy!

So anyway, needless to say, I have a lot of disinfecting to do around here. And I have some little girls to hold and rock till they feel better.

Here's hoping everyone starts to get better soon, and I can start playing catch up on everything!

Poor little girlies! I hate when they're sick!

Don't you love comments from strangers about your "hands being full?" I always wonder if people mean it in a negative manner!?!

I hope everyone gets better really soon! For their sake (and yours!)

Awh, I hope they get better soon! It's no fun having sick kids :( Except for when they lay around and don't cause trouble for a few hours... did I say that outloud?

Have you announced your boy name yet? I'm so curious at what you picked!

Take care.
