the mad cow...

So I'm sad to say that the entire Haak household has been sick with the flu this last week. It started with Tyson getting a little stuffy and ended with Jason and I sounding like we had speech impediments due to the congestion. Tyson really only was stuffed up and has almost completely recovered...Jason and I are still working on it. I had to ingest about half a bag of cough drops this morning so I wouldn't cough directly into my eye doctors mouth during the part of the exam when they sit uncomfortably close to adjust those crazy glasses.

The saddest part of having a sick baby is that any progress previously made with sleeping is now gone. He once again will only sleep while people are holding him and his eyes fly right open the minute you try to set him down.
Due to the congestion, I purchased a humidifier for the baby's room. I was excited becuase it was on sale. I don't know why other customers hadn't already snatched up this bargain...

maybe they get creeped out by the look of steam coming out of a barnyard animal. I think it's cute:)
