Not so Happy Halloween

Not yet anyway...It's been a rough couple of days in the Conte house! Chase is still sick and now Cole and I are getting sick too. Nick is still holding his own, but he did get a flu shot and it made him a bit achy and weak. I called the doctor and got appts. for both of the boys for this afernoon. I just want to get them checked out to make sure it is nothing serious since the weekend is here and they won't be opened! Hopefully they can at least give Chase something for this horrible cough he has. It's this dry, hacking cough and it is causing him to throw up sometimes if he gets too worked up. Last night we pulled out all the stops to try to get him to sleep...propped up the head of his bed, ran the vaporizer and humidifier in his room, put vick's on his throat, and gave him motrin and cough suppresant before bed! It still took him about an hour of coughing before he fell asleep! Poor guy. He slept the whole night though. Cole was the one who woke up crying at 3am b/c he was so stuffy. I hate cold/flu season! It is the worst!! Yet another reason I am dreading returning to work. Putting Cole in daycare this time of year is not going to be good!! I am sure they will both be sick a few more times before the season ends. UGH!!!

Anyway, hopefully our Halloween will get better. Chase is still wanting to dress up as a monkey and go trick or treating!! Hopefully he will be able to or we are going to have one sad little boy! :-(
