Sickness Struck Hard

This weekend we all suddenly came down with something. We're not sure if it's allergies or if that just started it and we've graduated to colds now, but with the exception of Jameson (for once) we've all been miserable. We stayed home from church and I haven't left the house in 2 day except to go to the store to pick up more meds, and Jameson played "Dr. Jameson" all weekend giving lots of "shots" and handing out lots of "scriptions". Klint and I are starting to feel better, but Alex still isn't feeling well. He had his first experience with the SVN machine today (breathing treatments). We pretty much know it's just a matter of time, but it's always sad to see them with that mask on, especially for the first time. It's amazing that my kids can be so cute even when we're all miserable. Here are a few pics.

Dr. Jameson

Dr. Jameson even wanted to be sure the stuffed animals were ok. They got shots and "scriptions" too.

Alex wanted to play Dr. too, but he wasn't quite sure what to do with it.

Alex's first breathing treatment. Isn't it sad we have to document first breathing treatments like we do first steps and words.

Oh I recognize that breathing mask. Stanton has to get them all the time. We own two machines! Jameson is so cute being a doctor and taking care of all of you. He wants to be like his Daddy!
Hope you guys feel better!

I'm sorry you were all sick. Its the worst being sick and having a sick kid! I'm glad you guys made it through and are feeling better. Porter has the flu right now, and it hasnt been a fun day...I'm just praying I dont catch it. I hate the "sick seasons"!

P.s. Alex looks so cute in that picture. I just want to bite his cheeks. haha. We too, are very familiar with the breathing treatments and I have pictures of Porter's first treatment as well. C'mon, they look so cute with the little mask on, you cant pass that up!
