Happy 2011! Bring on the Flu!

Oh yhea our little girl is ringing in the New Year right! She has the flu! Lucky me.
It all started on New years eve when we went to see our wonderful friends Alan, Tressa and Mattie. It was gonna be a night of partying but it turned into a night of barfing! It all started well with Jaden and Mattie dancing and playing. Then Jaden didn't want to eat and then she spiked a fever close to 101! The funny part is I was just saying Jaden has never been sick except a few colds. Never say never. Here are some pics pre-flu!




We decided to call it a night a little early because I didn't want to get Mattie sick! Jaden cried all the way home and once we got her in bed. I held her close and snuggled her trying to get her to stop crying and that is when all hell broke lose and the flu came spewing out full force! Oh yhea both of us and the bed were covered in puke from head to toe! Nice! After a shower(2 for me!) Jaden fell asleep only to wake up alot during the night whining! Happy Near year to us!
Luckily we ordered out for New Years so it was a relaxing day at home.

Every night since then she has been up multiple times crying. Since she is in bed with me still(don't get me started on that)I was up all night too! She has also had a few incidents from the other end if ya know what I mean! I thought she has an earache. She has never had one so I assumed that is what it was and took her to the Dr. yesterday because she was not eating and just wasn't herself. I was informed her ears were fine but she has the flu! The good news is its almost over!!! Yhea. The bad news is we have both been in the house all week and we are going stir crazy! I think she is feeling better because last night she only woke up 3 times! She also ate soup last night and today so I think we are on the mend. Now lets hope Rusty and I stay flu free!!!

Here are some pics of Jaden pre-flu to hold over my picture lovers!



And before anyone asks, yes Jaden did have the flu vaccine. There are a million different strains and she got one that wasn't covered!

Poor Jaden (and poor Mama -- ick). I hope she's better by now.
