Amazed...

I woke up and thought Bailey had kicked her fever, she looked good and seemed to be acting fine. But E had a low grade fever. We went to Landon's game anyway (which they lost unfortunately) and all was well. Then we returned home and E's fever was gone (the wonders of Motrin), but Landon couldn't even talk, his voice was gone and is throat was scratchy. I swear he was fine before his game. But by the afternoon (after we all took a 2 hour nap and E took a 3 hour nap (1.5 hours more than normal)) both Landon & Bailey both had fevers. Baileys was up to 103+ and Landons was lower at 101.3. Motrin took care of it right away luckily! E still didn't have a fever this evening but he definately wasn't himself. He actually laid his head down on the floor adn just laid there for probably 10 minutes! Soooooo terribly unlike him! I put him to bed at 7 (again, so unlike him).

The older kids & are are watching "Game Plan" right now from On Demand. They are just AMAZED at this whole On Demand thing, "Well, can we pause the movie?" "Are there commercials?", "Do we have to send it back?". Funny how something so simple can amaze them!

Matt is on his way home (or will be soon) from St Joe in the wonderful snow storm, so if your reading this tonight yet please say a quick prayer for a safe drive home. I need him home safely! UPDATE: HE ISN'T COMING HOME TONIGHT,THEY ARE STAYING AT MY GRANDMA'S HOUSE, BUT PRAYERS FOR A SAFE RETURN TOMOROW WOULD BE GREAT! AND THAT E SLEEPS ALL NIGHT!

Oh no! Not Landon too! Obviously lasts longer than you thought too. I hope Matt is home safe and sound by now. GET WELL over there!

Will say a prayer for Matt's safe arrival. :)

Yeah - from my experience the fever will come and go unfortunately. Seems to get kicked by Motrin and then come back sporadically! Glad Matt decided to stay - this weather lookd HORRIBLE!
