Sick Month

We had a bad bad bad bad bad bad bad bad bad bad bad month of sickness. I think it was our worst stretch ever.

Ashlee taking a nap when she was sick and Molly covered her with stickers.

Molly laying down beside Caitlin when Caitlin was sick.

Waking up one Sunday morning to find Molly looking like she had been in a fight.

(just a really runny nose, that had apparently been bleeding as well sometime during the night.)

Snuggling together on our 3rd week home from church. 

It was ridiculous.

We didn't go to the doctor to get tested, but I am positive we all had influenza- the symptoms were exact.
