The babies had runny noses the entire time we were in VA, but the real fun was when we drove home Tuesday night. Carolyn Carolyn Carolyn…screamed for about 5 hours of the 6 hour drive. I don’t mean a cry here and there I mean she screamed and screamed and screamed. When I took her to the doctor the next day she had an ear infection. Then that night and the next night she continued to scream. So I took her to urgent care and the sent me home with an Rx of Tylenol 3. What the heck? Who gives T3 for an ear infection??? We weren’t going to fill it at first because we didn’t feel comfortable giving it to her, but after talking to a friend of my sister’s we decided to go ahead and give it to her. Basically it was so she could rest. Instead of doing the full dose we did 1/2 the dose when we made it home, and 1/2 the dose 6 hours later. She slept that afternoon and night better than she had since Monday night! She woke up Friday feeling so much better, but she passed the ball to Maxwell and he woke up feeling not so great. Then Sunday he had a fever so it was off to the doctor he went today. He has an ear infection, but he is at least feeling good and wasn’t crying a lot until he got tired.
Alexis is being her normal rock star self and isn’t sick except for her runny nose.
Aiden has been crying a lot lately because he has molars coming in. He usually is very content unless someone steals his stuff or we aren’t piling the food up in front of him fast enough. Not the last few days. He has been crying for every single possible reason.
We are ready for the sickness to be gone.
