We're Sick

It's been a rough weekend in the Harvey house, Aidan spiked a fever on Thursday night but woke up Friday morning feverless and seemed to be feeling a little bit better. He wanted to go to school so we let him go but as soon as he came home {our sitter said}, you could tell he was not feeling well at all.  This was the first time he has been sick since I started working and it really took everything in me to make it through the day and not come home and scoop him up.  My dad took over in the afternoon which made me feel a little bit better. 

Friday night we rented a movie onDemand and just vegged out.  I started to notice my throat was a little sore.  The price you pay for taking care of your sick baby.  Saturday I woke up and my throat was feeling a little bit worse.   Aidan has been dying to see the movie Rio so we all threw on sweat pants and tshirts and headed out  to see an early movie Saturday night.  I was really starting to not feel well at this point.  The movie was so cute and Aidan loved it.  He kept saying "Thank you, Daddy, Thank you, Daddy".  Apparently Adam gets the credit for everything! Haha! The boys stopped to play a few video games after our movie...


Today Aidan woke us up complaining his ears were hurting and I was absolutely feeling terrible so we got in the car and headed to urgent care.  Sure enough Aidan has double ear infections and we are both on the verge of strep throat. We have spent the entire day in bed and Adam has been the greatest nurse.  Julie came by with home made chicken noodle soup and painted my nails.  She is the best!  I can barely breath and Aidan is complaining about his ear regularly. I could be sick for weeks, I just want to see him get some relief soon. I am hoping after two doses of Amoxicillan he will be feeling ten times better in the morning.  

Here are some pics from the sick ward...

Just totally out of it...


Aidan keeps telling us Spike our cat always knocks over his army men when he sets them up and we didn't believe him but I got out of bed for about five minutes and caught him in the act...

The boys are setting up army men, Spike is in the bottom left corner...


The approach...
{Aidan is saying, "NO SPIKEY, NO!"}

Bam!
{Aidan bursts out in laughter "Oh Spikey"}



And that's as exciting as it get's around here.  Say a prayer we feel better soon.  I HATE being sick.

He said take lots of Mucinex and if I'm lucky it wont develop in to strep throat. I have been on Mucinex for about 24 hrs and feel worse today. Thank goodness my hubby is off today to take care of us! I hope y'all get to feeling better! When the little guys are sick its the worst! Have fun in the Bahamas. I'm so jealous.
