racking up the sick days

The past week we have all been sick in the Stokes household, and the little one is the instigator. She woke up last Monday with a fever and a little cough. I thought it was just a cold, so we treated it as such. Well, after a long wait at the after-hours clinic we discovered it was bronchitis. Poor baby.  They gave us a nebulizer and sent us home.  We went for a follow-up on Monday and apparently every other child in the county was sick because it was standing room only in the waiting room.  After another really long wait, the Dr. said that although her lungs sound better, she will continue with this for another week or two. So, we have been sequestered for yet another week. Baby girl and I are really getting cabin fever! We can’t have guests or go anywhere because, according to the Dr., she is “super contagious still”. Awesome. Needless to say, we have been doing a whole lot of nothing here! I have had a great little helper with some cleaning.
This picture sums up how we have been feeling:

This is my cleaning assistant. Don’t worry…it is not clorox in the bottle, it is vinegar and water. We don’t even use chemicals to clean, just an old bottle.
