Rough Go Around For Us!

Oh Boy! Rough few days around the Mauss home! Jake came down with the flu on Tuesday morning. That was the first time he has thrown up since his mission in 1999. It is also the first day he has called in sick in 3 years. He was a man down! When I went to go and ge Walker up his blanket and his back were really wet. "Poor guy, are you all sweaty?" or so I thought! When I realized that it was throw up!! He had the flu too! At first I was thinking that it was just from his two month shots that he had on Monday - but then when he kept throwing up his milk all morning - I knew that he was sick too! Poor guys! Jake woke up a little bit better on Wednsday, just a little bit achey and congested, and Walker finally got over it today! He still has a few issues in his diaper, but he is finally keeping the milk down. I think he was getting sick of the Pedialite and water I was giving him. Yeah that they are feeling better. Poor Walker just cried and I didn't know what to do for him. I hope no one else gets the flu - I really hope I don't get it!

Sad...I hate it when you don't know what to do to make them feel better, and on top of that, it is so sad to see your husband sick too. I am so sorry.

Oh it is just no fun when the little ones are sick and there really isn't anything you can do for them. I am glad he is feeling better and yes I hope you don't get it because it sucks even worse to be a mommy and be sick. Good luck!

Man something is going around...we got a tiny dose of something at our house but nothing too violent. Hoping you are all recovering...I swear that sometimes it takes longer to recover than to be sick.... no fun! Cute 2-month picture of Walker. He looks adorable. They grow up too fast...I am here to say!
