My sick boys

It's been a fun week in the Johnson household. It all started Monday night when Maddux got a stomach bug. He was up from 12:30-3:30am, it was miserable for all of us. It's continued all week long (no 24hr deal for him unfortunately), and Kevin came down with it on Wednesday night. I have washed so many loads of laundry, mostly sheets and towels. I think I've gone through half a bottle of detergent. And my poor hands are all dry and chapped from all the handwashing I've been doing.

Today though the boys are better. Maddux has a crazy appetite and hasn't made any extra trips to the bathroom, yay! He's been a trooper through it all though. I'm crossing my fingers that Ava and I have managed to bypass all the germs. I was glad Ava had school all day so she wasn't around Maddux so much.

I can't complain too much though since this is the first stomach bug to strike our house since I've had kids. Pretty amazing huh!?

I'm now off to take a quick nap while the kids watch Frosty. I haven't gotten a full nights sleep since Sunday night and it's really catching up with me.

Glad to hear the boys are doing better. I was worried. And I knew staying up in the middle of the night would take its toll. Nap long and hard, my friend... you deserve it!
