Flu season & Color Run

I am a little behind on posting partly because we've been keeping busy and also because the past week the kids were sick. It started on Sunday when we were at my parent's house. Sunday morning Max started coughing and had fever.  We tried the usual breathing treatments, nebulizer and fever reducer. It made for a long week since he stayed home from school Tuesday. I took him to the doctor and they gave him some antibiotics.Of course he didn't "seem" sick. He had fever for 4 days. I finally sent him to school on Thursday even though he still had a cough. Of course when I picked the kids up from school I got a kinda "bad" report about Maddie. Well come to find out she wasn't feeling well. She came home, vomited and was running fever. Here we go again! So we basically spent most of the week at home.

All this being home got this mommy in a real funk! Thank goodness we had a busy weekend and some help ahead. Saturday morning started out right at the gym with Cycle. Love that class, well really I hate it, but I love feeling accomplished after.

Finally at Cycle Class



My parents came in to watch the kids so we could go and watch the "BIG GAME". We hung out with Cy, Emily, Nate and Patty and Nate's parents. The game was awesome! Johnny Football and the rest of the team showed up and showed everybody the Spirit of Aggieland! We were so pumped after. We talked about how awesome it had all been and enjoyed their hot tub.

Having a blast watching the Aggies BTHO Bama!

The next day some friends got together to do the Color Run in Houston. It was fun, but I'd probably not do it again. Too messy, I'd rather run for speed. Another thing is that I am not suppose to be running for the rest of the year. I've been diagnosed with chondromalacia patella, fancy word for inflamed cartilage under the knee cap. Therefore, no running, jumping, squatting, etc. So this run was a walk for me, aka BORING!
Color Run over downtown Houston was fun, but dirty
