Feeling Better.

Not sure who he was talking to, but it was apparently a very serious conversation.

We got them this new little play house and they love it!

Last Friday JJ woke up from his nap with a temperature of 105.1.  Brian took him to the ER and they diagnosed him with strep and gave him a shot of steroid and antibiotic, along with some Motrin.  It helped almost immediately and he was feeling better by the time he got home.  What the doctor didn't tell Brian though was that the steroid would cause JJ to act crazy at bedtime!  For 4 hours, we tried to get him to go to sleep, but he would just get back out of bed, turn his light on and play or color.  Brian finally got him to go to sleep by laying down with him on the couch at about midnight.  Luckily he felt better in the morning and has been back to "normal" this week.  

But over the weekend, Owen ended up having a fever that wouldn't break.  I took him to the doctor on Monday and he has an ear infection.  The worst part was that he had so much ear wax that the doctor had to dig it out before he could even see the infection.  Poor Owen was screaming and crying the whole time.  His fever finally broke though on Tuesday, which was good.  Now if he could just get some teeth to pop through, then hopefully he would actually start feeling better.  He literally wanted to be held all day the last 2 days.  

So, we're now praying that the boys are on the mend and we can have a healthy spring.  The weather has changed this week, so we're able to go outside and play more, which is good and will keep us active and hopefully healthy.

I love that the boys are now old enough to take baths together and that they seem to like it too : )
