[fever marathon]

It has been a most tiring weekend....... the flu / fever virus first struck G, then slowly but surely went it's rounds across every member of the family. Only my dad and V, surprisingly, didn't get it's full blown effect. For myself especially, it was a real struggle, the tiredness of looking after sick little ones while well, and then the infinitely more exhausting task of looking after well little ones while sick. Thankfully, the worst of the bug is over (i hope!) and we're all on the road to recovery.....
The whole episode only lasted 5 days as it's worst, but it felt like a loooong week, with lots of sleepless nights and a whoozy drug-induced semi-consciousness. Of course, it meant that the whole Father's Day event just passed by in it's entirety, nobody had the inclination or energy to celebrate it at all. (sorry dads!)
Through the trying times, we really couldn't have made it without the help of our support system. I would really like to thank all family (my parents, sil, mil) who pitched in to help when help was most needed. It was much much appreciated.....

To V, the best daddy the girls could ever wish for. Here's a shot of how he usually looks on the way back home - lots and lots of bags! We could never figure out why it is that we have so many things to carry, but here's the proof......! Our bags-carrier, our driver, our playmate, our lego builder, our game inventor, our you-tube screener, our temperature taker, our packer, our milk and cornflakes maker, our mr super clean (g's phrase), our bed sacrificer (when G refuses to sleep on her own bed) - HAPPY FATHER'S DAY - we love you..... xoxoxoxo
And to my dearest daddy - HAPPY FATHER'S DAY too...... this is coming as a belated pressie to you..... :)
Some random pics of the girls before we all got sick......
