Sick House

We have had a sick household going on for a week now. It all started last Wed. after the kids had valentines pics made. Brock would not smile or sit and get his pic taken, he kept looking and reaching towards me. When I picked him up he was grinning. Keira did everything the photographer asked her and smiled big, which normally doesn't happen. Afterwards at lunch Keira's eye started looking red and having discharge, so Thursday morning we went to the doctor and had our first experience with pink eye. Thursday night she coughed her head off and didn't sleep and a cold had begun too. Friday night I had both of them in the doctors office and she had ear infections in both ears, and Brock had just started the running nose. Well friday night was Brock's turn to be up all night and so saturday morning i take him back to the doctor, pink eye and some type of virus. Poor thing must have had some form of stomach thing going on, by the way he was acting. Saturday night still not sleeping good, sunday evening he started sounding like a seal barking when he coughed and sound terrible, so I call Monday morning and they want to see him immediaetly. This worried me and I am thinking pneumonia or something along those lines. He ends up having the croup and ear infections have begun. We do a breathing treatment in office and they give him a steriod. He slept most of the day and sounded so much better. There is no telling how bad he actually felt! Finally today we are on the mend and they are both doing so much better. He is back to Mr.Happy except for the remainder of his cold and Keira has a little runny nose and cough, but is playing just fine. Thank goodness this is about behind us. I thank the Lord that Brandon and I have not come down with something. Especially it being tax season!

I hate that you all have had so much sickness, but it does hit that way. That is one of the things that makes having two kids a lot harder than one.... when they both get sick! I am glad you all are about over it. We missed you at scrapbooking! Did you ever decide if you can come on the 22nd if we have it? Let me know! Glad all is getting back to normal!
