I'm So Bummed ...
I am supposed to be up in the mountains enjoying the fall air, the changing leaves, and spending time with our friends ... but instead I am at home nursing two sick boys and a sick hubby.  I'm so bummed.  It's been such a rough week.  The daycare called us on tuesday because Brody was vomiting.  Fun, huh?  And it's been down hill ever since.  A high fever, vomiting (and guess what else), two trips to the doctor, chest xrays, a breathing treatment machine and breathing treatments every 4-6 hours, an antibiotic and then a steroid on top of that on the second trip to the doctor (due to less than acceptable oxygen saturation level) ... severe bronchitus (sp?) and possibly a small bit of pneumonia ... and now the poor guy has a molar coming in today making his mouth bleed.  Hasn't eaten much at all since monday ... good thing he is still nursing.  He seems a little better today than he did yesterday so hopefully these meds are working.  So much for the Halloween costume I made him ... he had to miss out.  I took Houston out trick-or-treating and then later that night he ended up with a fever too.  Now today he has most of the same symptoms as Brody.  Ugh!  I think Brett has a sinus infection.  He's finally agreed to go to the doctor so we'll find out soon.  I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I manage to stay well.  Somebody has to take care of things around here!  :)  We've had some rough nights and I won't even tell you how many times i've been puked on so far.  I certainly hope that phase of things is over.  Yuck!
