Sick Sick Sick and More Sick

Well, Tuesday Clare came down with the flu. Not the puking-the body aches, fever, miserable flu. Tuesday evening I came down with it. Michael stayed home Wednesday, Thursday and Friday! By Thursday, Xavier was acting crabby and just wanted to be held, so he went to the dr and he had an ear infection! Friday Michael took Will because he woke up hot and stuffy and acting like he was on his death bed. They checked him for everything and sent him home. Later that morning he acted like nothing was ever wrong. Michael, knock on wood, hasn't come down with anything! I pray that he doesn't get this, it's TERRIBLE! I finally started to feel better Friday and was fine by this morning.
I was able to make it to my sisters shower. I was up all night Friday night feeling terrible that I would miss it after I put so much thought into it and I really didn't want to let her down. Luckily, I was able to come. It went off without a hitch and was VERY VERY NICE! I was so happy with the way everything turned out and I think my sister was happy as well! I know how important the little details are to me, and I wanted to make sure every detail was taken care of.
I have a baby shower next weekend for my friend Kim. She is having her third and they got rid of everything after their second was born. After seeing Elizabeth and I have our two little angels Kim thought she would give it another shot at a boy! And, she is having one!
I am also gearing up for Carrie's bachelorette party! I haven't ever thrown one before so I am anxious to do that! I am not sure exactly how it will all work since I have little ones, but I am up for making the most of it all. We have cute little shirts too, so I am anxious to wear that instead of some hoochie-bar wear!
I am keeping Clare home this week so we can de germ everything! The weather is supposed to be really great so I am planning on keeping the windows open as much as possible and de germing the house!
We really don't have any plans for St Patricks Day! We are supposed to go to a dinner tomorrow night (already bought the tickets) but I am not sure whether we should go or not? I guess we will see how the next 24 hours go! We used to watch The Quiet Man and eat our corned beef and cabbage but I think I might do a shamrock craft with the kids and hopefully be outside all day! Maybe we will paint our sidewalk green or something!
Well, off to watch Cars and eat carrots! Have a good rest of the weekend!
