you may remember that
I am somewhat of a
GERM-a-phob!
I've calmed down a lot
from when Alaina was
little. Let's just say something
about having a one pounder in
the NICU does it to you!
and
no
maybe a little pun intended
I caught the germ-a-phob bug!
So, with that being said...
the dreaded flu season has started!
Not that I am scared of getting sick...
I just HATE getting sick and I HATE it
a lot more when my kids get sick.
We are choosing not to vaccinate the girls
or ourselves. I just don't feel like I should
put all of my trust into two different shots
for keeping healthy! So instead we are taking
an all natural approach...
if you can call Clorox wipes natural :)
Here are a few things that I Clorox on
a REGULAR basis, i.e. at least every other day!
I also have the "anywhere" Clorox spray
and I do the
Counter tops
tables
kids toys...
Another thing we are being proactive about is
doing a lot of washing...
Here are some things that we are washing...
every other day!
I'm also washing our sheets and blankets
once a week {just washing the pillow case
every other day}
and these things we wash so often...
mine are already cracking,
dry and gross, that's why I didn't take a
picture of mine :)
and a healthy amount of hand
sanitizer when we aren't around
running water and soap!
These items are on the list of things to get
to keep in our house at all times this winer!
- A quick and working thermometer
- vitamin D & C
- fever reducing medicine
- Gatorade &
- elderberries
You can call us weird or kooky...
I don't really care,
you aren't living with us :)
With all of that being said,
I still think we will get the flu...
it just seems inevitable!
But a healthy and clean lifestyle
sure can't hurt!
