We had a busy weekend last weekend. We took the kids to ride Thomas the Train in Medina, NY about an hours drive and then from there went to Tulip Festival in Holland. Marc's Aunt and Uncle live in Holland and there is a great parade and small rides for the kids. We had an exhausting day. I ended up sick on Sunday and Monday, I had my Mom take the kids on Monday and I stayed home and slept all day long. It felt weird to be home alone! The Dr's saw me late in the afternoon and gave me a Z pack and 24 hours later I felt fine. Tuesday, Evan started with a cough and it worsened as the week went on.
I took the kids to the Peds Thursday and they told me it was a cold/allegies. We went back Saturday and Evan had a bulging ear drum and Sara Roseola. Sunday his ear ruptured and today I took Sara in and she has an ear infection. We have been lucky and this has been our first round of antibiotics and ear infections for both kids. Trying to get them to take the amoxicillin is another story. Evan can be convinced after lots of whining and Sara threw it up twice today, I'm dreading giving it to her tonight. She went down for a nap at 5pm, she was exhausted.
A funny story, this morning Evan asked for a piece of candy. He looked in the drawer I keep it in and didn't see anything he wanted and then remembered he had Easter Candy on the Dining Room table. Sara watched him and I thought that was the end of it. Evan awoke from his nap this afternoon and I left Sara alone downstairs. We couldn't find her when we came down. She was on top of the Dining Room table unwrapping all of the chocolate candy. Sara was so proud of herself and making a huge mess. I told Evan she was having a feast. Its neat when we can laugh at something together! I wish I would have had my camera ready, I managed to take a few pictures on my cell phone.
