cough cough

I am glad that February is a short month, because it has so far been a germy one for our household. Nate started it off with a cough turned pneumonia, which our pediatrician diagnosed not as walking pneumonia but "running pneumonia," since this is Nate we're talking about. Nate then graciously passed the cough part on to Anja, and my two germy kids gave it to me (Tag! I'm it!) Anja seems to be recovered now, and I have only a bit of residual stuffiness and a mild cough. So, of course, yesterday Thad comes down with some sort of gross GI bug and, to spare you, that is all I will say about that.
