I truly mean this - your kind comments and emails have kept me going over here - we thought we were "in the clear" last night as we went to bed - Micah and Caleb had no fevers (still laying flat - but no fevers!!) and Aaron and Chloe seemed great. 11:00 pm - Aaron's up with a raging fever and Chloe walks out of her room and her face is VERY red - here we go again!! If I thought the boys with high fevers was yucky, imagine a 2 year old with a raging fever - she acts dillusional - she cries, whimpers, thrashes all over the bed and then tries to get up and come find us - I finally gave in and slept in her bed (I NEVER do that - I love my sleep too much!!!) But that didn't even work - she just kept saying - "Mommy, I NEED you to howd me." (That's "hold" in Chloe language.) But after hours of sitting up in bed holding a little one that becomes dangerous - I was afraid I'd fall off the bed!! She only sleeps for 30-45 min. at a time and then spends an hour crying because she's so uncomfortable. Tonight I'm sleeping on the couch - one of the boys will have to be de-throned - I've got to find a spot I can sleep sitting up with her! SO, there it is - the Bilby Saga in a nutshell - just wanted to catch you all up since you aren't here to experience it with us!! :) Thanks for thinking of us though - I'm feeling like I need it at this point!!

I am almost in tears thinking of how cruddy Chloe feels then I see tour ending mom blinkie. You are a good mom.Hang in there and you stay healthy yourself.

Sorry you are all sick! :( Those are NOT fun days. Pray everyone is well soon. (LOVE the picture in your header!)
You know, I know, how you feel. Having an 8 month old barf off and on for 7 days, nearly put me over the edge. At least he slept through the night tho'. You must be delirious today.....I'll keep your tribe in my prayers. Hugs to you, girlfriend!
Aw Becky, I'm so sorry you have to go through all this. Say thank yoou father Adam. This too shall pass. Just think of the fun stories you'll have to tell 'someday'.... Oh who cares about that. Take care of yourselves.
Our little one always says, "I wanna howd you!" So I love that you spelled out "howd" like that!
Bless your heart. We will keep you guys in our prayers. I know so many people who have gotten sick this winter. Yuck!!
So sorry to hear that Chloe is getting sick. I only wish I lived close enough to help you thru this. I will be thinking of you and praying she gets over this quick. Love MV
So sorry to hear you all are having a hard time. I'll keep all of you in my thoughts and prayers! Hopefully everyone will feel better soon and you will get some rest! :)
I'm so sorry. It is awful when your children are sick.
I will send a little prayer your way.
