My husband is amazing!! Last Wednesday I woke up in the night VERY sick. I kind of had hints it was coming starting Tuesday, but by the time I woke up on Thursday there was no question I was really sick. So instead of spending Thursday and Friday finishing his last two days of work my husband was taking care of a very sick Mommy and two little girls who REALLY wanted to spend time with me. After getting me to the doctor on Thursday it is most likely I had the H1N1 flu. Although they didn't test me for it. I didn't leave my bed till sometime Saturday. And then it was only for brief bursts of energy followed by complete exhaustion. Jeremy could have opted for fast food and movies, but he didn't. He helped the girls make their own bagel pizzas, gave them a bath, and helped them carve their pumpkin as promised. He did a great job doing dishes, cooking, and caring for our girls. I am SO thankful for him.
Ready to carve!
Not so impressed with the squishy guts this year.
Dad decides to use the Rotozip...
Completed pumpkin...with the help of power tools.Well, on Friday the girls started coughing so we ended up putting all three of us on Tamiflu just to be careful. Grace ended up getting sick on Halloween running a 102 fever. She started the day trying to convince us she was feeling fine (after throwing up from the Tamiflu) and that Nana could still come and of course she was still set for Trunk or Treat. But, by evening she had completely forgotten her own idea of "Trick or Treating" at home. So we ended up watching a movie and going to bed early. Sunday night we did our own trick or treat of sorts and hid prizes Jeremy picked up at the dollar store for them to find.
We have yet to officially dress up and trick or treat. My recovery has been VERY SLOW. I continue to have a horrible cough and low energy supply. But each day I feel a bit better. We are hoping to take the girls to do a trick or treating circuit of family sometime later this week.
