Brutal Week

The title says it all. We have had a BRUTAL week here in the Schuster household. The kids have had runny noses for a couple weeks now, but on Tuesday morning it went downhill fast with Lila's vomiting. She was miserable, warm, sleepy, couldn't eat, couldn't drink.. Luckily it passed quickly, by the time she woke up from her afternoon nap she was feeling better. Wednesday was a kind of quiet day, Jonas wasn't feeling very well but he typically doesn't feel very well pretty often, due to bad allergies and shift work. On Thursday morning, Keegan came to sleep in bed with me (Jonas was working nights) at around 5:00, and around 6:00 I woke up to him gagging. He was still asleep but gagged four times, so I woke him up and brought him to the bathtub. He seemed fine after his bath, but then at 6:45 he started throwing up. He threw up twice by the time Jonas got home around 8:00. I tried to give him some soup but within minutes of taking his first bite, it all came back up on him. He went to sleep with Jonas, around 8:30 (mind you, Keegan slept from 8pm-6am Wednesday night). Keegan woke up briefly at 12:30, then slept again from 1:30-4:30. He was feeling better after he woke up, thank goodness, but I kept him home from school Thursday and Friday just to be safe. So, from 8:00pm Wednesday - 7:00am Friday, Keegan slept 28 out of 35 hours! So as soon as Keegan felt better, when he woke up around 4:30, Jonas woke up from his nap and was feeling terrible. I, too, felt just awful. Jonas was able to get the night off, thank goodness. Long story short, the same thing that happened to the kids happened to both me and Jonas on Thursday night (it is the first time in our four years together that we have EVER been sick at the same time!) - vomit, fever, fatigue, headache.. We somehow managed to make it through those few hours before we all went to bed, and Friday we were just dragging, like a really really really bad hangover. We are ALL feeling better today, and about to head out for some frozen yogurt! I hope all of you had a better week than we did! :)
