Hello...I Didn't Forget

What have we been up to? Wow. It has been a while. It really doesn't feel like it's been that long. It is scary how time really does fly by.

When I sat to write this, there was so much that I wanted to update you all on...the wine tasting, Meyer's Tae Kwon Do tournament, our trip to visit family, but all of those will come...but not tonight. I am tired from two little visitors who came at 5:00am, and I want to spend some time with Ryan...how could you not?

Back to Normal...Well Almost

Well, it has been a rough couple of weeks here, but things seem to be on the up and up in our house. No more visits to the doctor, however, Mally did want to make a visit to tell him achy her medicine was!

Go Away Germs!

Our house has been an infirmary. Wow. It all started last Friday. Not this past Friday, but the previous Friday. Mally came home with a fever of 104. She was sick all weekend and had to stay home on Monday. Ryan stayed home with her, then he got sick, with strep! So Tuesday and Wednesday, Ryan and Mally stayed home again. Ryan stayed home all week. His throat had white puss balls all over it. He finally started to feel better, but then Meyer started getting sick. On Saturday, I took Meyer to urgent care and he had a double ear infection and strep. It was Auntie Mandi's party, so the kids were pretty sad about missing it, but they got over it when they found out they could watch TV and movies all day.



Despite waking up to Meyer's bloody ear on Sunday (his ear drum popped), it seemed we were all better. I made everyone's lunches, picked out their clothes (yes, we really are that organized, which is super surprising, I know) and got all ready for the next day.

I woke up this morning, and all systems seemed go. I actually took time to style my hair today. We headed out the door and went to school. I knew something was up when Mally came into my office wearing a sweater, vest, sweatshirt and was shivering. I took her temp, which was 104 and headed out the door, grabbing Meyer while leaving.

You may be asking yourself, how does one leave the house in the morning with a four year old with a fever that high. Doesn't she show any signs? This is Mally, who seems to have quite a high tollorance for pain. Remember the stitches? She amazes the doctors with her giggles after shots.



Needless to say, I did not run 5 days this week and this week isn't looking so good either!
