Sick- Again!

I have our pediatrician on speed dial.
I know the ladies that answer the phone, not by their name, but by the sound of their voice.
And, I'm sure they think, "Oh, it's Mrs. Fowler again."

Two weeks ago Luke had the stomach bug. Then a few days later he had a fever. It was a bummer spending the week indoors, but it was even worse seeing Luke so down. We got in lots of cuddles and he formed a serious attachment to his pacifier and blanket.

We went to Lake Cumberland this past weekend with Grandmom and Grandpa. Luke was fussy on the boat Saturday, but we assumed it was due to his lack of naps, the heat, and having to wear the infant life jacket. Wrong. That evening we realized he had a fever. I brought Luke home Sunday morning and the doctor confirmed Monday morning that he had an ear infection in both ears.

Monday we spent the day inside playing. I love Caleb's imagination and creativity...

Tuesday morning we were hit with this...
I noticed when getting Caleb dressed that he felt warm. Another fever in our house.

Thankfully, Luke seems fine now. He did break out in a rash yesterday afternoon, and due to concerns over a penicillin allergy, we are switching his medicine.

So, we will be spending at least another day indoors. Hopefully there is no secret TV police monitoring the amount of time my kids are watching Disney and Nick Jr...
