Trevor...

Trevor turned 11 on the 21 of February. Friday the 20 was our blue and Gold banquet for cub scouts. Trevor earned his Arrow of light before leaving the cub scouts. That is a great achievement. It is the only award earned by a cub scout to be carried over onto their boy scout uniform. Congratulations Trevor!!

Back to normal

I am finally seeing improvement in my sick children. I have spent the day cleaning, changing sheets cleaning toys that may have been slobbered on. I am hoping to clean out the sick bug that seems to be living at our house these days. Today is the first day that Ty has seemed to be his self. He is feeling much better. Tate is completely back to his self. Now if I can just keep them healthy. I am very ready for spring. I am tired of the cold weather, which I know we still have plenty of. I am just grateful to have things back to normal. It is nice to be able to get back into our routine.

Ty...

Well today I was back at the doctors office. Ty has some how managed to become worse. This is becoming the longest week of my life. After some tests at the doctors office he changed Ty's medicine (he has been taking it for 5 days and it has done nothing.) Then he referred me to the hospital. It seems that Ty's poor throat is so swollen that he was worried that the swelling was blocking his airway. After the trauma of xrays, we were told that his tonsils and adenoids were very large but the swelling was not affecting his airway. What a relief. Now with the new antibiotic hopefully we are on our way to recovery.

Sick Boys

My two little ones have been so sick. It has been so very sad. They are still not feeling well. Ty is still running high fevers. Neither one of them will eat. Tate is finally improving. Still not eating and sleeping great. Ty honestly looks like death. His throat is so swollen he can hardly talk, which is why he wont eat. They are both so cranky. I feel like I am loosing my mind. I am sleep deprived. I took this week off to be home with them. Sometimes I wish I were at work. I love them and am so sick of them being sick. This I think is one of the hardest things about being a mom! They only want me and when poor Russell tries to help Ty cries and tells him to go away. It is nice to feel needed but...enough already. I am thinking I might have to take Ty back to the doctor he is not getting better. He only has one more dose of medicine. Nothing gets done I sit all day and hold one or the other. Why do kids need to get sick. I wish there were some quick cure for when they are not well.
Oh well what are you going to do right.
