I love winter time. I love the snow, warm soups, electric blankets, and cuddling up with my kids. There are lots of things I love about winter, but I do not love colds and the flu that winter brings! The worst part about a cold for me is being congested. I HATE not being able to breathe out my nose! You forget what a blessing breathing out your nose is until you can’t anymore. I stop sleeping when I can’t breathe out my nose. The pressure from the congestion gives me the worst perma-headache ever. Then I usually get a sore throat, chills, and aches, and they all started with that darn stuffy nose! Having a cold or the flu is the worst ever!
I try my hardest to keep my family healthy during cold and flu season. Especially now that Hayden is in kindergarten he brings home all sorts of fun germs! As soon as he walks in the door from school he knows to go straight to the bathroom and wash his hands. We wash our hands often, but especially during the winter. I try to use disinfectant wipes more often on telephones, keys, door knobs, and light switches. Sometimes even with all my efforts me and my family still get sick. As a mom I do not have time to be sick. I cannot be sick! My kids need me, and I have things to do!
I always keep my medicine cabinet stocked for just in case my husband or I catch a cold or the flu. I always have plenty of tissues, and I always have Vicks. Vicks DayQuil Severe helps me power through to get Hayden ready for school, do his homework, do my own homework because I am going to school too, play with Halli, get the kids to and from their different activities, regular housework, and then get the kids to bed. Thankfully there is also Vicks NyQuil Severe to help me sleep at night so I can wake up feeling refreshed to get everyone breakfast and do it all over again.
Vicks DayQuil and Nyquil Severe are my ultimate tools to fight my most awful cold symptoms. As soon as I notice I am running low on them I write them on my grocery list to grab them on my next shopping trip at Walmart. Walmart is the perfect place to pick up everything you need during cold and flu season. Walmart has everything you need to get through cold and flu season. In one stop I can grab Vicks Severe, Puffs tissues, ingredients for chicken soup, a warm blanket, and a new movie or book to snuggle up with. Walmart also has the best everyday value for all my health care needs. Vicks DayQuil and NyQuil Severe are available at Walmart.com and in stores.
I always go with Vicks because I trust that they can help me be the best mom I can with a cold. My cold and flu symptoms are easier to manage with Vicks. Vicks has maximum symptom-fighting ingredients to relieve the worst cold and flu symptoms.

It seems like flu season is extra terrible this year! Thankfully and knock on wood we haven’t got it yet. If we do I will be heading to Walmart to pick up some more Vicks! Stay healthy this winter and make sure to stock up to prepare for cough, cold and flu season.
