The sick bunch

What a rough couple of days. J woke up Tues. morning with a temp of 103.7 and a headache so he stayed home from school and Tues night his fever spiked 104.2. So he bought himself a tepid shower which ended bringing it down to 100.5 so Eric slept in his room and took his temp throughout the night. He had a low grade temp on Wed. so I went ahead and still took him to the doctor. I was thinking maybe strep throat since he complained of a sore throat. He was totally not himself. He just laid around on the couch, wouldn't eat, and didn't even ask for his stories, songs, or prayers when we carried him up to bed. The doc said it was only a virus and he is back to his old awnry self, today. Tootie like the sick, lethargic J better. Miss Sophi has been screaming for at least an hour every night. We thought maybe she had a milk protein allergy like J and Caroline but the doc said she had terrible acid reflux so we started her on Prevacid twice a day and she is a totally new baby. She is back to smiling all the time and she naps like a dream. Still getting up a lot at night but I'm used to it now. So as long as she is not screaming all day with the colic. Here is C saying some of her favorite words.
