"I went to the woods because I wanted to live deliberately. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life;
to put to rout all that was not life and not when I had come to die, discover that I had not lived." ~Henry David Thoreau

As If I Wasn't Sick Already!

We have a round of the stomach flu circulating our house. Hailey wined and moaned all night and kept waking me up. I wasn't happy about that. Then she started throwing up first thing this morning...as soon as the sun came up. If nothing else, it was very considerate of her to wait 'til the light of day. Then Ethan woke up saying his stomach hurt too and he lost it all over the carpet. So now they are camped out on the couch with their puke bowls on the floor, both running fevers but unable to keep even water down. As of now Lauren isn't sick, but it's only a matter of time until she gets in on the dance.

Right now I feel like God's playing a mean trick on me. My morning sickness is in full force (10 weeks is always when it is the worst) and now I'm dealing with my own issues plus the stomach flu. Oh, life is so fun at times. This is the first weekend in a long time that we don't have anything going on. Right now I'm grateful for that. But I'm disappointed because it is an incredibly gorgeous day outside and I had a zoo outing planned for this afternoon. Bummer!
