Here we go again...

Micah and David having fun in M's bedroom.

"Mama, I don't feel good" :-(


Well, as you can see in the photo above, bumpkin is sick again. We thought he was just getting some new teeth, which he is, but he started with a fever Saturday night and things just got worse (more gunky) on Sunday. My prediction is an ear infection, and we will have to go back to the specialist and talk about getting new tubes put in. A couple of weeks ago the local Dr. took a look in his ears and said one of the tubes looked like it had shifted and he had an infection then, but she said to wait and see if the infections became recurrent again. One antibiotic later and here we are. Anyway, Dan's watching both boys today since he's on Spring Break (the "break" being optional in this case :-)) and he will be taking J back to the Dr. so we'll know for sure in a bit. UPDATE: It's an ear infection. Surprise!

Despite the setback, we had a good weekend. Dan and I actually watched some movies from Redbox after the kids had gone to bed. The weather was great so we spent a lot of time outside and opened the windows to let some fresh air into the house. Saturday afternoon, a little friend came over and played with the boys for a few hours. We made shamrock cookies yesterday :-) So, it's not all bad. If green sprinkles and kisses could heal, then we'd all be healthy.
