these girls are nuts

Sometimes, I don't think pictures do enough justice. Sure, they are cute. They capture some of the craziness. But they aren't full effect. There is a constant stream of singing, laughing, screaming, more laughing throughout our house at any waking moment.



Olivia sings all the time. Hope you all enjoyed her rendition of "Farmer's Daughter". Also a little bit of a PSA to not do drugs! haha



As you can see, Rachel is feeling much much better. Spelling her name is one of her favorite things to do. If you ask her what her name is she says Rachel & then spells it R-A-C-H-E-L. Sometimes she gets to talking too fast & leaves out the A. But whatev, it's close.

There is just so much personality inside the 4 walls of our home. Love these crazy girls.

3 am

My girl says to me, "Mama, I love you so so so much." She's still running a fever 102.9 at 2:30 am. She requested that I sleep with her in her Minnie Mouse bed. She won't drink milk, chocolate milk, or much water, but she has pounded an entire large McDonalds sweet tea today, or yesterday I guess. I haven't slept. But I'm in pretty good company. Pretty pretty company, if you ask me. And there isn't anyone I'd rather not sleep with right now. And she's still wearing her fancy dress. I plan on wrestling it off her later today.

Rachel says "a positive diagnosis of influenza & fever of 103+ is no reason to not be fashionable."



Oh yea. Positive for influenza. She feels pretty crumby. Really high fever. And I mean really high, 104.2 around 2:00 am to be exact.

We are basically quarantined to the hizouse until she goes 24 hours without a fever. Hopefully my girl gets to feeling better soon. Definitely don't like seeing her feeling so awful and looking so pitiful.



She's doing ok, aside from that dangerously high fever over night. That scared me. But we are in a pattern where she has a high temp then gets medicine and perks up for a bit. See...






Then she gets to feeling all horrible again. I feel fine. But look like crap run over twice. See...



So, the doctor's appointment today went well. She was a real trooper with the tests they did. And she had to wear a surgical mask which did not go with her general fancy-ness.


Hope this medicine helps my girl.
