Sniffles and Boogers and Tears, OH MY!!

I think I am correct in saying that my house is not the only house that is going through the flu/cold season.  Unfortunately it has hit my house in waves. Starting with Rick and working it's way around, going away and rearing it's ugly head for a 2nd time.  I have managed to stay pretty healthy until the last couple of days.  My house looks like a pharmaceutical war zone.  Cough drop wrappers, Day-quil, Tylenol, Vicks and an endless supply of booger filled Kleenex strewn about!  Gianna normally keeps me up until about 1:30 AM every night so I am used to being up but juggling all three of them last night gave me a little run for my money.  Rick leaves the house about 4:30 AM for work so I usually never wake him up for a helping hand. Last night was an exception!  We had Richard in our bed tossing and turning. Aiden in his room coughing and crying with our only humidifier. Gianna had no problem letting us know that she was not going to settle for sleeping in her crib.  The chaos finally ended at about 3:00 AM.  Just in time for Rick to start getting ready for work.  Today has been pretty rough so far and I am praying that this flu will leave the house as fast as it came!! 
The boys are now letting me know that lunch time is in fact over! Richard usually let's me know by throwing his bowl and cup across the kitchen floor.
Until Tomorrow....
