Official Germ Hater

In the past few years we have become germ-a-phobias. House arrest must not be enough to keep these yuckie germs away from Nash. Trying to figure out where in the world he got this last cold/flu... CRAP!

My only conclusion it that I let him be a big boy and try and open the door at therapy... Hmmmm could it have been that door handle... I thought, to myself... "I should wash his hands, OK Jayme just a door handle... People will think your are psycho."

As much as we try to protect him these germs seem to find their way into little Nash... Starting last Thursday with a sore throat... To a runny nose, lots of coughing, to throwing up last night... Slight fever today and boy who will just lays on the couch, won't eat, and asked for Naps... If you know Nash you know he eats all the time and has not been taking naps for months.

So like normal he decided to share his germs with his mom... Yep... Really moms how do we escape getting sick when our kids are caughing, sneezing, and barfing on us... Impossible! That and the lack of sleep are a sure way to get sick too. I am thinking I need to invent a mom body suit with built in Vit C filters!!!

Ahhh with all this our smoke detecters decided to go off at 4 AM Sunday AM. Yeah, ran out of the house... Not fire Praise God... Thought they were Carbon Dioxide detecter too, so we called the service guy... Only to find out after a $110.00 service call at 5 AM that we have electric heat and they cannot produce Carbon Dioxide... Yeah... Bet they are laughing at the shop this morning... DUH!!! Reality is all is better then a fire. Electrician came today... Faulty detector. Probably will get that service bill too... Still all far better then a fire.

Through Nash's cold he still thought it was super cool to ride in the back of the car laying with me while we drove to the service guys office to read the phone number off one of the trucks... Yep, Crazy Kuehls... If it were something bad we knew we should not go into the home... So we took a car ride and Nash smiled!!

Overall Nash is doing well. He has been talking more... WE LOVE IT!!! I want to write more on his progress, but he is asking for a cracker and I soooooo need to get food in him so I got to run... Hopefully, he is turning the corner!!!
