Christmas Part 2 2017 Branson

The day after Christmas started like this....the blonde-headed boy sleeping in the middle of the greatroom floor almost the whole day and feeling a bit warm!  Oh no!  Jaaten and Jaafe were already battled a nasty cough and head cold!  12.26.17

We stayed in all day....so I was able to get the vinyl polka dots and Jaaten's name up in her room...finally! 

By the next morning (12.27.17) Hudson and Steel were both coughing, had fevers and Steel had thrown up in the middle of the night.  We had planned to leave for Branson that day to meet Jaafe's family at the Grand Country Inn.....a kids dream hotel with an indoor waterpark, go karts, arcade and cousins!  HOWEVER, the boys and I stayed back while Jaafe, Jaaten and Dakota drove to Branson.  The boys and I were headed to urgent care.  Although they didn't look real sick in this picture! ;) 12.27.17 

We made it to urgent care to find out there was a 2.5 hour wait so we signed in and went to Grammie and Papa's to wait it out.  They text me 15 minutes before we could get in to see the doctor so it worked well.  Once we got in the boys took off their hate and this!  LOL....they looked at each other and asked me to take a picture.  LOL

We got bracelets and the wait began!  SnapChat filters kept these two entertained for a little while.  After everything was done, we had waited ANOTHER 2.5 hours for them to tell us BOTH boys had Flu Type A and Hudson needed an inhaler because he was wheezing.  They said it would last 7-10 days and we were likely on day 2 or 3 already.  They also mentioned it would be highly likely I would get it.  And I did. ;/

Overall Hudson and Steel were both troopers while we had to wait so long!!  No tears and minimal whining. ;)  I'll take it!  I took this picture right before we left. ;)

Meanwhile in Branson.....

Still sick boys...Steel was so cold he kept his flannel and hat on all day long inside.

And the boys finally agreed to get in the shower and not the bath!  Everybody is growing up!  And shower finally cooled their body temps down. 12.29.17
