A good ending to a rocky beginning

Monday started out like every normal week. Rushing around to get the kids and myself ready for the day and then off to work. It was a crazy day at work and I came home to a funny smell in the house that I recognized but hoped for the best as I walked up the steps. My fears were correct when I saw a pile of sheets in the hall and heard Marcus say "Brie is sick." After dealing with the stomach flu back in December I knew what we were in for so we took shifts taking care of Brie and trying to get some sleep (and of course feeding Sophie as well). In the morning we were all exhausted, but Brie seemed in pretty good spirits. Our nanny felt comfortable and Brie had kept down some apple juice and cereal so off to work I went. Surprisingly, although a bit fussy, not eating well, and sleepy during the day, Brie was fine. No more vomiting. We are now thinking that maybe something she ate did not agree with her or it was a fast moving virus because she did have a fever with it. We are now just hoping that Sophie and the rest of the family are spared.
Today we spent the day working outside getting things ready for our garden. It was a wonderful day and Brie had a great time helping daddy shovel. Sophie likes to sit back and watch and smiled as her big sister moved piles of dirt.
