Sick Sick Sick

OH MY GOODNESS!!!!!
Ok so two weeks ago Elijah was sick, throwing up and all that and not eating and if you know Elijah something he does is eat. Well he got over it and guess what, I got it.

I have been so sick for a week, I mean really sick, I don't normally get sick. The last time I threw up Kylie wasn't even in school yet but this really knocked me out. I couldn't eat (hello a pregnant lady not eating, have you even heard of such a thing?), I couldn't think, I couldn't move. One day I couldn't even drive to pick my kids up from school, (thank you Monica).

Somedays I didn't eat anything at all and days that I could all it was, was bananas and applesauce and cereal.

I had this really fun menu planned out for this week since it was Cino de Mayo, and I didn't cook not one thing. I haven't cooked since last Monday which was only mac and cheese and hotdogs.
So Robbie has been taking over for me, the kids have had peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, tuna fish sandwiches and hot dogs.
Mia even made lunch for her and Porter her creation was mayonase and mustard sandwiches, (gross) but they ate them twice so either they were really hungry or they taste good.
Kylie made dinner on Friday butter, sugar and rasin sandwiches (which nobody ate). I felt so bad that I wasn't cooking but I couldn't even hear about food without wanting to throw up.

So Sat Robbie had planned this day out on the town with the kids, we had Elijah's soccer game in the morning and then he wanted to take me to lunch, well I was feeling ok at this point so I went.
They took me to Chili's (one of my favorites) and all I ate was a salad, (big mistake!!!!) after that we went to Kohl's, because Elijah has wanted to buy me a ring since last mother's day and Robbie never took him to do it, so we went there, then to Walmart because Robbie needed filters for the air conditioner. Well I think the salad caught up to me and I felt so gross I couldn't even walk around Walmart, I sat in McDonald's and waited for them (poor husband had to walk around walmart with all 4 kids). Then I was like can we just go home please. So we came home and I pretty much went to bed.
Sunday I thought I was going to die, Robbie so wanted to make the day special for me, but I felt so gross, I just layed in bed. The kids had all these things they made me and Robbie made breakfast (which I was like I can't eat it, I couldn't even drink my protien shake). I put on a smile and tried so hard to be happy for them. But I ended up falling asleep, I did go to church because the kids were like oh mom we are going to sing to you.
It was so weird when I got there I started to feel better, I don't know if it was because they keep the church cold or what but I did feel better there. It was fun to watch the kids sing, it was Mia's first time singing to me.
When I got back home our house was so hot, I turned the air down to 80 instead of 83 and I did start to feel better. So maybe we'll just have an expensive electric bill this summer but at least I won't be sick.
But this morning when I woke up I felt back to myself so maybe I'm just over whatever it is that I had.
But now Kylie is sick!!!! Here we go again.

I can totally relate. I got the stomach flu 1 week after we brought Ava home. I was up with Ava, then with myself!! Then I got it again a week ago and thought I was going to die. I couldn't even get the kids ready for school I was just in the bathroom so sick. I still don't feel normal yet does it ever go away??

Oh, I'm so sorry. It's miserable enough being pregnant at this point, but then to get the flu...YUCK! Hope you get better soon.
