Sickies

We've been a bunch of sickies over at my house. First Dusty got hit with it. Then yesterday I got hit with it, went to the Dr today & was confirmed to have the flu. I can't recall ever having the flu before in my whole life. It sure wasn't fun. i tried to avoid getting Deacon sick by having my mother-in-law watch him, but unfortunately she brought him back to me this afternoon with a fever :(. He was so pitiful, just laying his hot head on my shoulder. He fell asleep on me, but when daddy came home it startled him awake and he let out the most pathetic sickly cries i'd ever heard come out of him. Its funny though, it was almost like the moment Angie told me he had a fever, my body knew to forget my flu and go into 'mommy mode' so i could take care of my baby. Last night while laying in bed feeling like death, Dusty came to bed after putting Deacon down, and we were chatting for a while when i told him i was a little hungry and wished we had some soup. Dusty got right out of bed and drove to the store, bought noodle soup, and made me a big bowl of it in the middle of the night. Isn't that sweet? I sure thought so. It sure is bad timing for the sickies, since this weekend is Deacon's 1st birthday party. hopefully everyone is well, or i'll have to reschedule the festivites.
