We had big plans for this last weekend before Christmas – two family Christmas parties & a friends’ little ones’ 2nd birthday party. Everything started going not-as-planned on Friday afternoon.
I got a call at work from the boys’ daycare that all of the “friends” in their class were getting sick with high fevers and vomiting and that Colton was one of the ones that had woken up from nap throwing up. Cory left work early and picked both boys up. We had a poor, sick little Colton on our hands for that afternoon & evening but as soon as he went to bed, he slept for the entire night.
We decided that Cory & Colton would stay home from the Christmas parties on Saturday to rest & re-coop, so Wyatt (who was still acting as healthy as can be) & I headed out and enjoyed two Christmas parties on Saturday – one with my mom’s immediate family and one with some of Cory’s mom’s immediate family. It was a very odd feeling to take on the entire day with just one of my boys – a bit easier than usual – but we certainly missed Colton & Cory.
Sunday we ran some errands in the morning and then went to a friend of ours little girls’ 2nd birthday party. Everyone had been feeling good for the entire day on both Saturday & Sunday and the party wasn’t until later Sunday afternoon. The boys had fun playing with friends and we had fun getting out of the house & visiting with everyone.
Sunday night, whatever it was that Colton had finally hit Cory & I during the overnight hours. It was awful. I had to call my mom on Monday morning to come and take the boys to daycare while Cory & I stayed home from work. I also stayed home from work yesterday morning but then Wyatt was sent home from daycare with a high fever – and is continuing it today - (anything above 101 means they have to be sent home for 24 hours) so I ended up hanging out with both boys yesterday afternoon. It turns out Wyatt was the only one in his class that had not gotten the high fever or flu-like symptoms on Friday – my strong little guy!
I am finally feeling almost back to normal today and am finally back to work. Colton & Cory were sick last year on Christmas weekend, so hopefully this year we got all our sickness out during the week leading up to Christmas instead!
