From the doctor's office, that is! We made our weekly visit today LOL! Not really but it does feel that way sometimes. FlowerChild went the first of the month with her ears. LadyBug and Cornbread went last week, him for a checkup, her for bronchitis.
Last night FlowerChild was up for hours crying with her ears hurting. Another double ear infection! It was a pretty severe infection from the way our doctor acted when he examined her. He is such a sweetie. I don't know if he would like being decribed in such terms....he has all boys and loves to hunt, etc. But he truly is so kindhearted and my children think the world of him. (even if Cornbread did crawl under the chair and hide, just still as could be - it was so cute!) The doctor checked Cornbread's ears since he has been sick with the same cold. He had an infection in one ear. Arghh...I hate for my babies to be sick! Babies meaning any of my children!
So everyone has had their antibiotic now. It's late and they are winding down. One in my lap with his little fingers entwined in my hair. The other two curled up on a pallet in the floor. Actually LadyBug is still a little bouncy since she slept in the car so she is flitting between the pallet and a chair. Cornbread slept too but it's making him more cranky than bouncy! As for me there's not much bounce but at least I'm not cranky either! :) I'm just hoping to go at least a few weeks before we have to see the doctor's office again!

I'm soooo sorry that your babies are sick!!! I'll be praying for them!! A double ear infection is double-stinky! Hope they are better soon!
ReplyDeleteKris,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the sentiments! Also thank you for praying for us...it is so encouraging to know someone is praying specifically for you or your loved ones. :)Hope your Little Tinkerbell is doing much, much better now, too!
Oh, I hope your babies get better! My children always had ear infections. Recently, our whole family, I think, had swine flu. My sister in law visited from Mexico and even though she was never sick with the flu, she could have been a carrier. We are ok now, but we are taking our oldest baby, 22, to the doctor on Monday.
ReplyDeleteMary,
ReplyDeleteThank you...sounds like you know exactly what it is like. My goodness, swine flu! I'm so glad y'all are doing better. Flu makes you miserable!
