Last Saturday Harper came down with a cold, she had the cough, runny nose, feeling yucky, and a fever which spiked to 104 on Sunday night. So Monday morning, I called the Doctor's office every 10 seconds at exactly 8am until someone answered, and Sawyer and I accompanied Harper to the Doctor. She was actually oddly excited about going to the doctor because she's been watching Doc McStuffins lately, and then she was quite disappointed when a middle aged man came in wearing a mask and not a little girl in piggytails.
Luckily her fever came down and she just has a persistent cold that haunts her and will never leave. Of course also on Monday, Sawyer and I started getting it, and it just stayed and got worse, I even took a couple of days off from working, kinda, and I even took naps, WHAT!?! I know! Crazy. And I made my super duper homemade chicken soup with 89 different vegetables and we still didn't get better. Then this weekend Ryan started getting sick UGH! On Monday, Harper, Sawyer and I went to the Doctor again (side note, the nurse thought the girls had the cutest first/middle name combos), and Harper still just has a cold, but Sawyer and I were like "We see your cold, and we raise you bronchitis!" and Harper was like "Ummm... no, you guys are crazy, I fold."
So Sawyer and I are on meds, and as I write this Harper is climbing on her chair, to her table and then flipping over the back of the couch, which probably I should not let her do, but even though she is still cold-ish, she seems to be acting fine obviously. Annnd now my baby is crying OH, because also she was like, "Also I think I will finally cut some teeth and make this bronchitis extra delightful". I hope the Cold of Doooooom does not strike your house, because it won't ever leave and you will go through 15 boxes of tissues!!!!
I don't really have a lot of pictures of my sick kids, cause crazy enough they are not all about it... but I do have these...
