Uuuuuggghhh!

This week hasn't been the greatest for the Sparks family. Elizabeth started getting a high fever over the weekend. We kept it under control and took her to the doctor on Monday. She has Scarlet Fever (basically strep with a rash) and is on antibiotics right now. That evening Randy started to get sick also. He spent most of his time in the bathroom until the next morning. Poor guy. We didn't know if it was the flu or food poisoning, so I stayed home so he could see the doctor. It was food poisoning. Since Elizabeth and I didn't have any symptoms of it we tried to see what he ate that was different. Well, last night Elizabeth came down with it too. She was up all night. If all this wasn't bad enough, this pregnancy is taking its toll. I'm still getting dizzy throughout the day and yesterday, my heartbeat was very high. I have my regular doctor's appointment today and will be discussing all this with her. I think it is time to take things easy and start my maternity leave at work. We'll see what she says.
