The Swine Flu??

Well it's been an interesting week to say the least. Carli woke up last Thursday morning with fever and was really pitiful. So we took her to the Dr. that afternoon, and it turns out she had good reason to be pitiful. She tested positive for H1N1, the regular flu, and had 2 ear infections. We weren't aware that you could have both flu's at the same time, but apparently you can! Once we got some Motrin down her and the fever came down, she was pretty much back to normal. So we've spent the last 4 days trying to get her to drink liquids to stay hydrated. It's actually somewhat embarrassing knowing how I would be acting if I were that sick compared to how she acts, because it doesn't even phase her and I would be laid up in bed feeling sorry for myself. She is still really snotty and has a cough (which means she must continue to be sequestered), but other than that, she's back to normal, goofy things! We are definitely thankful that we have a healthy baby girl that can take what the swine flu is dishing out!

So that's pretty much the reason for a break in posting. Resa asked me to write an update, so there it is. So far, the parents are doing good with no major flu-related issues. Hopefully we'll all be back to normal for Easter Weekend!
