Urgent Care, My Second Home

Well this morning James and I were feeling much better. He still has the cough, and I still have the nausea, but we were both finally a little better. Dylan took an extra long nap this afternoon, and I got a few chores finished around the house. Thade was still coughing and miserable, and was resting on the big comfy chair. I decided to take a nap and rest while I could.

At 3:00 p.m. James was very worried that Thade was still snoozing, and we checked him for a fever. It was 101, so we thought it would be best to pay one more visit to Urgent Care and get him checked out. There has been a lot of RSV and Pneumonia in the area, and we thought better safe than sorry. It took a little convincing, but Thade was pretty happy to go.

James watched Dylan, and Thade and I headed out to Urgent Care. He still had a fever, and the Doctor said that it might just be a really bad case of the flu, but to keep an eye on the cough. If the cough gets worse he will be put on a Nebulizer and sent in for a chest x-ray.  Let’s all hope that the cough gets better, tonight we were sent home with another prescription and some cough medicine samples to try. I’m hoping for the best 🙂

Dylan is doing great, and his appetite has returned. I had hoped to have a birthday party for him this weekend, but I think we had better wait another week just to make sure that everyone is finally well. I think I’m going to call it an early night, and hope for a little sleep this evening.

Back to the Routine

Well I’m not 100% just yet, but I don’t think that the laundry can wait too much longer. Tomorrow I’ve got to get back to the daily routine, and get the house back in order.

We are all still under the weather, but James and I are making a steady recovery. The kiddos are fine one minute, and miserable the next, both still have awful coughs. Thade is hopefully getting a full night’s sleep tonight, and Dylan is cuddled up with Daddy at the moment. James and I are hoping for a nice night of sleep too, no one has been sleeping well since last Wednesday. The coughs and tummy aches seem to hit in the evening…

Thanks again to everyone for all of the well wishes and prayers for the family. Big hugs to all of you, and I hope that everyone is doing well 🙂

Just what time is it?

Well Dylan popped up this morning promptly at 6:30 a.m., a quick diaper change, and he was back to sleep. I came in to hubby’s office to get on my laptop for just a bit, and at 6:45 a.m. Thade is wide awake, and is hanging out with me at the moment. So long sleeping in till 7:00 a.m., these two just keep waking up earlier and earlier.

Oh well, we’ll get an early start to the day 😉 It looks like it might snow today, and we need to make a run to Walgreens. We are out of tissues again, we must have a lot of allergies around here. James has a half day at work today, so I know Thade will be thrilled about that!

Good morning everybody, I  hope that your morning didn’t start off too early 😉

It is so Loud Over Here

My little guy has learned that he has a voice, and my goodness he knows how to use it! It has been non-stop screaming at his Big Brother for taking his toy, screaming at Mom because it is time to eat (again), screaming at Dad to be carried around. This little one is so loud 😉

Last night my hubby attempted to escape to the quiet of the upstairs land, but nothing could soften the screams and squeals from Dylan, Thade was attempting to take a toy, and Dylan was not going to let that fly. Its funny I don’t remember Thade being loud just to be loud, he would coo and giggle. Dylan is completely different, if he is happy he screams, mad he screams, tired he screams, I think you get the picture…

I guess it is just his personality, it sure is a loud one 🙂

I Kid You Not :)

It is really 74 degrees and Sunny outside, in the middle of Winter!!!!! I have so many things that I should get done around the house today, but I think I’ll put them off until later and take the boys outside to play 🙂
