this picture pretty much sums up how ever member of the family has felt sometime during the month of February (and, yes...that's leia snot on daddy's shoulder. sorry, i know it's gross). yes, we ALL were lucky enough to get the flu. kaia got it about 3 weeks ago, then derek got it about a week and a half ago and i got it on Valentines Day and leia has it now. thankfully, kids don't get it as bad as adults do, because derek and i both got it REALLY bad and it hit us HARD!!! horrible headaches, really bad sore throats, lots of phlem getting coughed up (or, at least trying to), fever, chills, cold sweats, messed up taste buds...nothing tasted good for about 5 days (that was really annoying cuz i love eating!), achey & sore...okay, i think i covered all the symptoms. and i never get the flu shot & i'm glad i didn't cuz i heard on the news that even if you did, this Flu is so strong that the shot won't keep you from getting it, so be careful...don't think you're safe to be around people with the flu cuz you'll probably get it. anyways, that date derek and i were gonna go on while the girls slept over at derek's parents house last weekend never happened. we slept the whole time they were gone. yea, our Valentines Day wasn't romantic at all. okay, i'm done having a pity party...at least we're over the worst of it and i can taste food again...yay!!! :)
