A Sick Winter

This winter has been the worst for colds and other illnesses around our house.

I spent the better part of one month with one cold or another. As soon as I'd get over a cold, I'd catch another one. One of the colds required me to take antibiotics before I could shake it.

Out of all of her colds, Latana had a real nasty cold that turned to early stages pneumonia. She needed two rounds of antibiotics before it would clear up.

Chay needed antibiotics to clear up a sinus infection.

Jace had one cold where he couldn't shake his cough. I took him to the doctor and xrays showed some stuff in his lungs. With the history we had in the house this winter, the doctor put him on antibiotics.

Jenner is the only one in the house that hasn't been on antibiotics. Knock on wood.

As soon as we'd get one kid healthy, another kid would get sick, not necessarily with the same thing. I think that for the better part of 2 months, we always had someone sick in the house.

Last week, all three boys were complaining that their tummy hurt. They must have caught some stomach bug. Let's hope that Spring starts soon and with the change in the weather, everyone gets healthy.
