You have to plan two vacations. 1 a couple weeks ahead so that the kids get sick, then the real vacation a couple weeks later. This is the way.

It’s the daycare, ours is always fine until you take him in and catches stuff from other kids, it’s a never ending cycle. Will eventually pass as they grow older.

That stinks, but at least you are off of work and not having to juggle both work and family. Hopefully yall can get some down time during the holidays to retry the staycation

It always seems to go down that way. I've only got one but he always gets sick, or we do, when vacay or time away is approaching

Dealt with 106 fever of one kid and a few days later 105 of the baby last month. Not fun.

That’s scary stuff, I’ve been there too. Best of luck to you and the family!

I have a coworker who keeps spouting comparative odds and situations in regards to the safety of the vaccine. Such as: you're twice as likely to get hit by lightening than have blod clots from JJ. It's very annoying and I find it to be really inapprorpriate, maybe because it's pushy or just I find these comparative things to be a bit irrelevant. How does one handle something like that? Can you shut the person down without starting a spat?

All year, she was much more withdrawn and ALWAYS on her phone! At the end of the I was 'beat up by her - she really knocked my glasses off.
