I feel as if I'm in one of those sci-fi movies where everyone is stricken down by some strange illness. Kari and Angie have also gotten Alex's stomach bug, and have been feeling rather unpleasant as a consequence. I'm just waiting for the alien creatures to burst out of their stomaches and start running around the house. I hope this clears up by tomorrow afternoon when I have to leave to go on a business trip...+ 0 - 0 | § ¶Still ill
Alex has still been feeling ill today too. The stomach bug continues. We've been fighting to make sure he stays hydrated, but he hasn't been too terribly cooperative. We have found though that chicken broth seems to work, so we're going to keep trying that.+ 0 - 0 | § ¶PICTURES!
As seems to be the pattern with us, we save up three months worth of pictures, and post them all at once. They are now available for viewing at

Due to popular demand, we have also removed the need for a login or password, so now it's easy to see the pictures.
Alex may have set a record for eating yesterday evening. He ate a whole can of spaghettios (15 oz.). Previously, the most he's eaten in a sitting was about 12 oz. On top of that, he ate a considerable amount on top of that, including cheetos and rice. The problem is that in the middle of the night, a good bunch of that food came back up again, and throughout today, his stomach was obviously not feeling well, leading to quite a bit of cleanup. I'll steer clear of exact details, but let's just say that a whole lot of laundary was done, and a whole bunch of furniture cleaner was used. The doctor says that its probably a stomach virus, and therefore, there's very little we can do besides wait it out.
Here's hoping that he's feeling better tomorrow.
