Spring Fever

It all started with Peyton. She had a fever, tummy ache, sore throat and a runny nose for almost the entire past week.
Grant had a slight fever, never slowed down much (predictable) and got the runny nose. He seems over it although he hasn't eaten much over the past few days.
Carston has had a pretty high fever since Tuesday. He will hardly eat. He has the tummy ache and sore throat as well. He doesn't want to do much.
Poor Jackson doesn't seem to be able to completely shake the fever. He was feverish before Carston. Yesterday I thought he was totally over it but the fever is back again today. So, either we are going through another round or his body is just having trouble fighting this bug.

Benjamin (not pictured here) is also sick. He has been pretty good natured about it though. He has gone through mouth sores and a rash and now has the same fever as the other kids. Sorry little one, it has to be hard being #5!

What a funny spring break! We are still enjoying each other, though, and in some ways it is a good time for everyone to get over being sick. We aren't missing school or anything:) Luckily, next week is Daddy's spring break and we are headed to Disney World. It will be all of the kids' first time (Carston can't remember the first time he went at 4 months old). We are all so excited!!

That's the pits! At least you have a chance that everyone will be better before your big trip and that will be one less thing to worry about, right? Hope you have a fun time!

My Benjamin was sick pretty much the past 3 weeks with the same thing, I think his came around twice though, Annie had it in the middle. My kids are cranky sick too, so I have been going nuts!!! I am sure you handle it better than I do. Hope everyone feels better. Enjoy Disney world, Annie can't wait to go again, it's pretty much all she talks about.
