Hallali Ihr da im Osten :-)
Nach Tagen (Wochen) des Krankenlagers melde ich mal wieder. Paul und Lili waren *mal* wieder krank. Kaum 3 Wochen nach der giga-Grippe in Deutschland hat's die beiden wieder heimgesucht. Schunpfen-Husten-Magen-Darm-Infekt. Wer will (ich will das ganze Martyrium nicht noch mal schreiben) kann ja meinen kleinen Abstrakt auf English lesen, denn ich gestern einer Freundin mailte.

Feeling in jail? I feel like in hell right now. After exactly 3 weeks both babies are sick again, and now we get everything.
First (Saturday), fever (about 103 F = 39 C).
Sunday, sneezing and running noses combined with NO eating at all.
Next day the same as the day before (we are talking about Monday right now) but with some now excitement: vomiting *yeah*.
Tuesday, a completely worried and frustrated mother (= me) went to the doctor. The only advice, keep them drinking (And now the funny part: How? If the don't want to).
Wednesday, diarrhea, Lili's diaper burst (can you believe that). A big mess, twice, and Paul got it, too. And - *bytheway* we are still not eating.
Thursday, again *tata* vomiting (she vomited her whole bottle over me
*yeah* - even my underwear got wet - sorry for the details) + diarrhea.
By now Lili is so weak that she is only lying around and doesn't move at all. So, I called the doctor again and right now, I'm waiting for the
call back...
...to be continued...
He called back, and guess what: Keep her taking fluids *haha*. It sounds sooooooooooooo easy...
Besides (as I have to mention it?) both are (guess
what) cranky and want to be hold all the time (how, with only 2 arms - why does twin-moms do not have 2 pairs of arms).
Tim is kind of ok still, he has some pain in his ears (normally the first sign that he will become sick). I feel: smashed, punched, frustrated, exhausted, angry, tired, worried - this list is endless. I have: a sore throat, a runny nose and a headache.

So, aber es gibt Licht am Ende des Tunnels. Lili scheint wieder auf dem Weg der Besserung zu sein. Zumindest isst sie wieder - wenn sie aber leider immer noch Durchfall hat. Aber es geht bergauf *crossyourfinders*...
Nun werd' ich mal ein bisschen nachlesen, was so los war die Woche ueber...
