What a way to start the year

This stomach bug has overstayed its welcome. Friday night, Brian and I quietly watched a movie (500 Days of Summer) while Jackson slept on the couch because he'd been gagging and dry heaving since he tried to eat dinner. By the end of the movie I was officially feeling "not right" and slept on the couch across from Jackson. I fell asleep around 11:30 p.m., swapped places with Brian at 5:30 a.m. and didn't wake up until 1:15 p.m. I went back to bed last night at 7:00 with a movie and our portable dvd player, fell asleep at 9:00 and got up this morning at 8:00. I cannot remember a time I've slept so much. Today I feel better - not 100%, but better. This doesn't seem to be a quick 24 hour bug. Andrew still has gas like a 75 year old man and Jackson doesn't really have his appetite back. I've had the upset stomach since Monday night. We'd all be going a little stir crazy except we don't have the energy to go out even if we dared.

I'll write about our lovely Christmas another time. In the meantime, here are a few pictures.

Holy Moses, Jackson looks like he's about 35 in that 2nd pic. No joke, I had to make sure it wasn't actually Brian sans glasses.

I'm REALLY sorry to hear about your sucky family flu. What a dreadful way to start off a new year. Gaah!

PS Those Sutherland kids look like Trouble. :)
