update on the flu

Well Paige is doing a lot better now than she was just a few days ago she has only coughed when she wakes up yesterday and this morning nothing throughout the night and nothing during the rest of the day! I think it's very exciting because i have been starting to feel like a hermit staying inside all the time!  Alex still has a cough but that's all he has had!  We will probably still stay in for a few more days just to make sure things don't get worse and to make sure she is completely better!  then when we do start going out i think we will probably just be going over to some one elses house or something or to the store!  I have been pretty impressed with how well she has done with this because alex got the type a flu a couple years back and he was really sick he had it all and was down and out for a like three days with really high fevers!  When we got him to the doctor his temp. was 105!  it was crazy high!  Paige's highest temp was 100.8!  We probably wouldn't have even taken her to the doctor if the swine flu wasn't going around!  But we thought we should get her checked out!  It's always better to be safe than sorry!  Esspecially when it comes to your kids!  I would definatly rather take them in to see the doctor and them tell me everything is fine than to have all the worry about whats wrong and end up with aner visit or worse!  I am so glad that she is on the road to getting better i think i will still worry for a while and i still need to watch her to make sure she doesn't get that infection from it so we are still watching her very closely!  We are watching alex too because he has had a cough but so far that is the only symptom he has had so i think that he is okay for right now!  In other news my best friend Jessica had her first baby on October 30th at 6 am they had a baby girl who weighed 7 lbs 7 oz (that's the same as alex!!!) and was 20 inches long they named her seraphim (it's a bible name) and i can't remember the middle name but i know it is russian!  It was i think her birth mom's name or middle name i can't remember!  I am so happy for her i think it is so exciting!  I want to go see the baby so bad but i don't think it's a good idea right now because of poor little paigey right now!  I would hate to be the one responsible for someone getting sick esspecially a new little baby!  I am so happy for Jessica and her husband i know they will be wonderful parents and will be the cutest little family!
