Yes, you heard right! Our whole family, all 4 of us, had the Swine Flu, we were pretty sick. Our swab results came out positive for influenza A so they were sent out to be tested for H1N1. It takes 7-10 days to get the results so we didn't find out till this week that we tested positive for H1N1. Thankfully Aiden was started on Tamiflu immediately, you have to start it within 48 hours from when you first got sick, so he just got a touch of what the rest of us had. That stuff works great because he didn't get even half as sick as we did. My older son Darrion came home from school sick & that was it for the rest of us. The joys of having a child in school! We were very fortunate! Pretty scary stuff but things were just fine!
A few more pictures of our busy little bee...
Aiden & his cousin Zak who is 10 days younger than him
These boys aren't even 2 years old and Zak already wants to go after his cousin, oh no! :)
a little fun at the park
Aiden loves his "goggy"
and so does his big brother...(excuse the house...it's under construction)

Carlla I've missed you!
I'm sorry to hear you had the dreaded H1N1, but honestly very relieved to hear how well Aiden did with it.
Abby started Kindergarten last week & has already been sick...it's gonna be a long winter.
Anyway, so glad to see an update!
Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, oh my gosh!!!! I am so sorry your family has been sick, yet thankfully Aiden has calmed many fears by showing us that he is a rockstar dealing with this illness. He is the first Heart Baby with H1N1 that I know, which means I will learn through you!! Keep faith!!
