House of the ILL

We are all sick at home. Jack has been sick, crabby and clingy for the past week, we took him to the doctor on Wednesday to recheck his lymph nodes that seem to be over running his little body and found out that he has Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease. Sounds pretty serious, but is a virus that causes all of the above symptoms as well as sore throat, rash, and cold like symptoms, and lasts from 1-3 weeks. He has stopped drinking from a bottle and now is demanding the breast almost exclusively. I was able to get him to take Pediasure from a straw yesterday and a little bit of juice, but he is on strike from the formula. so we will see how long this lasts and pray it is over soon.
As for the rest of us, Paige and Abigail are bug free :) !!! Isabella, Heidi and myself are all with the cough and general crumminess. So there you have it our weekend should be fabulous and full of naps.
