\t\t\t\t\"family<\/a>Records are meant to be broken, but unfortunately, aren\u2019t meant to go on forever. The Montgomery family recently broke the unofficial Stapleton record of consecutive days of no one in the household being sick between November and March, formerly held by the Morrow family at 11 days. \u201cOf course, we would have liked to have it to go on longer,\u201d said father Dave Montgomery. \u201cBut, our kindergartner got sick, as did half of her class, so we ended a great run at 13 days.\u201d Dave says it wasn\u2019t anything special they were doing to keep a healthy household for so long. \u201cYou know, we eat pretty well, and try to keep the kids in a good routine,\u201d said Dave. \u201cWe didn\u2019t do any extra sanitizing or anything like that. I mean, a lot of it is just timing and luck. We aren\u2019t superstitious, but after seven days, no one spoke of it. We didn\u2019t want to jinx it.\u201d\n\nWife Caroline says the record is great, but not having sick people in the house was even better. \u201cIt\u2019s nice to have our name in the record books, for as long as it will be there,\u201d said Caroline. \u201cBut not having to hear constant coughing, or running to the store to get medicine, crying kids, not being able to do anything because people are sick, these are the real benefits of the record. The recognition is great, but it\u2019s the other stuff that\u2019s the true bonus.\u201d The Montgomery family says they look forward to their next streak. \u201cWhen she gets better, we plan to start a new run,\u201d said Dave. \u201cYou\u2019re not always going to get the record, but we now know it\u2019s possible. It\u2019s out there. And we will be gunning for it.\u201d The Montgomery family has until the end of March to break the record, at which point there is a significant drop off of colds and flues, and records are no longer kept.\u201d\n]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
