A BUMMER OF A DAY

this is my poor son minutes before I picked him up and moved him to the bottom bunk in his room.

the poor little guy is sick again.

he was running a low fever yesterday, 99-100, so I really had thought a good night's sleep would make him feel tons better.

nope.

he woke up with 101.5.



and then about 30 minutes later threw up.

he seemed better after sipping on gat*rade and eating a few crackers over the next few hours....but then around 11:30 he said he wasn't feeling well again.

fever is up over 102 now.

it's a bummer for a NUMBER of reasons

1) I hate seeing my little boy sick. you know a BOY is sick when all they want to do is lay on the couch. just not like him.

2)today was supposed to be a special "mom's day" for me. My mom was going to take the kids for me today so I could get caught up on things around the house and finally start putting together a scrapbook for Elizabeth. She was even going to take them to a local museum that had "dinosaur bones"!
bummer for all 3 kids AND mommy

3)and to top it off -we woke up to find out our satellite tv is out. apparently our 4 week old receiver box blew out last night.

we have no tv

for at least 2 days.

not that we watch all that much...but when you have a sick kid who can't leave the house and can't get up off the couch -what are you suppposed to do?!

it's been movie day today.
lots of videos.
and thanks to grandma who stopped by with a few from her house that were "new" to my kids.

now just hoping noone else gets this.
I did have the girls wipe the bathrooms down with sanitizing wipes, and then we hit all the door handles and light switches. :)
