Sickness

The flu hit the Kempe house this week. Shepherd got it from school and I'm pretty sure I got a mild case of it too. Poor Shep couldn't get the flu shot because he's allergic to eggs, so when someone in his class got the flu he got it right away too. At first he was faring pretty well, but the last coupel of days have been ROUGH! Sick toddler + Mr. Independence + lots of energy + not talking yet = hard work!
I brought him a chocolate milk home after work the other day and there was a melt down for several hours because I wouldn't let him drink it out of the box because he kept squirting it everywhere. Despite being so fussy, we've felt very sorry and concerned for the little guy and hope he's on the mend. Here he is asleep on the couch one afternoon. This would normally never happen!

Ingrid has not gotten sick (yet) and we're praying she doesn't. She is getting bigger everyday and has been the easy one between the two of our kids recently. Here are those cute chubby cheeks.
