Who would have thunk it?!

Last night was a very tiring, restless night. We're re-training Baby Bee in his crib so it was quite "exciting" then K Bee woke up at 12 something hysterically crying because she couldn't sleep. I kept asking her why and she didn't know. She felt a little warm so I had asked if she was hot in bed and said yes so I gave her a shirt to wear instead of her flannel PJs. We went downstairs for a little to see if she could relax a little bit before climbing into bed. A few minutes later, she went back up. Then a few hours later, another knock on our bedroom door, it was J Bee saying his stomach was hurting. I asked if he tried going to the bathroom and said he tried but nothing and that he was hungry! It was about 3am! I rubbed a little Efficascent oil on his belly and told him to climb back into bed. Before bed he complained of a tummy ache too, so I know he wasn't hungry. 

Efficascent Oil is this ointment that is widely used in the Philippines. So I've used growing up and still do and now my family uses it! It is miracle in a bottle for tummy aches! It contains camphor, methyl salicylate and menthol and is used to relieve pain. 
I'm sure you can find in any Asian grocery store. 

So K Bee came home from school complaining her throat is sore and mine is too actually, it started late last night so we're all probably coming down with something. Anyway, I don't remember where I read it from, but marshmallows are great if you have a sore throat. Who would have thunk it?! So we both ate a couple of 'mallows and it worked! 
For sore throat, eat a couple of marsmallows, it relieves the pain. Good Luck and Get Well Soon!
