How it Goes

It is a new week and we survived Peter's absence to Connecticut.  Ethan and Samuel both had head colds that cleared in a normal pattern with coughing, sneezing, and being miserable and ornery little buggers for the allotted three days.  The girls progressed in a much more aggressive fashion with all the same symptoms, but crying and crying for days and being up all night.  Nina's illness resulted in an ear infection in her right ear.  Noting she was in pain, I tried to give her oral Tylenol on two occasions, but her extra sensitive gag-reflex left her lunch on my lap.  Lovely 'eh?  Those are green peas mixed with formula and stomach bile gracing my front.  We're on day three of antibiotics now.  God bless hot pink amoxicillin.


Ode to Aunt Lisa who stopped in and supplied us with chocolate and laughter for the boys.  Hooray for grandma, my mom, who arrived after Lisa left and held and snuggled sobbing babies.  Couldn't have done it without two of my favorite ladies.  Thanks Lisa and Mom!
