in my head we have been dealing with illness for two weeks, but this morning i realized that it has been over a month!! (i realized this when reviewing what all i had going this week. i missed book club last month because of the stomach bug and the next meeting is this week.) we have had back to back illnesses come through our house. the first was the stomach bug which i had the very worst case and matt avoided all together. the second has been the cough and congestion illness. madelyn has been over it for about a week, mason has just gotten over it and maddux and i are on the tail end of it (i hope). matt has gotten a touch of this one but seems to be on the mend.
madelyn most likely had a mild ear infection (she complained about her ear hurting for a day and i gave her a warm wash cloth and some pain killer before she was fine again). i took mason in on friday because he has yucky stuff dried all over his ear - double ear infection with a perforated eardrum. (mind you, he had no symptoms at all other than the congestion we all have. the yucky stuff on his ear was a hint though...) and then i took maddux in yesterday just to check since he was pulling on his ear on saturday. sure enough he had a mild ear infection too! now both boys are on antibiotics.
i am hoping that this is the end of this! we are all tired of hanging out at home and can not wait for spring to arrive! it is time for some fresh air for sure.
hoping that all of you are fairing better than we are. love.
