Same story different day

Yes, D ran a low fever last night and coughed through the night so I took him back to the dr. this morning. So yes, he too has strep!! I tell ya....it's been quite a few weeks. B was sick first and now me and Dev and probably Mike. He is having some symptoms and is going to go to the dr. tomorrow! Yikes...I am ready for this to be all over with! I guess the only positive is that while me and D were home today I got to start working on B's new spidey room. I got it painted the nice blue color. It looks really good! I have left the front entrance walls yellow for the time being. I think it will look OK with the decor. I have also attempted to repaint his headboard. This will be interesting. I primed it first and I'm using some old red paint that was the color of our dining room before we moved in. It was way too red, so we had the builders re-do the dining room in eggplant. But, I still had the red paint. We shall see what happens. After two coats of red, it is still going to need another...hmmm! I was originally going to paint it black but I couldn't find my black paint, so I thought I'd do the red to match the spidey colors. If it doesn't look good I'll probably just overcoat it in black like the original plan. I hope to get a little more done in there tomorrow also, since D can't go back to school till Monday. B seems to be OK, knock on lots and lots of wood!! I ordered a large stick on the wall spidey for the wall above his bed, it shipped today so hopefully it will be here before I go back to work next Wed and I can try to have his room done by his birthday on tuesday! I was planning on having the family party on sunday but I'll have to see how everyone's sickness is by then. I don't want to infect others that's for sure!
I am excited that I got my own halloween costume together today! I can't tell of course until the day! We are having a costume contest at work. It was challenging trying to find and come up with a costume that would be cute/ cool/ and that I could work in all day and be somewhat comfy. I think it's going to be really cute! But you'll have to wait to see it till the Halloween pics! The boys already have theirs too. B is going to be a ninja and D is going to be a star wars trooper. I just hate that both of their costumes have the hard plastic masks..maybe next year I can convince them into some type of homemade one or even one without the hard plastic mask.
I guess I will be able to finish some stuff around the house tomorrow since I'm home with a sick child. I hope to get more done on the spidey room, clean up the rest of the house and watch some rented movies with the kids. Well that's all for now....toodles and hope everyone can stay away for the sickies!! I am tired of it!
