Really?

We have had a long couple of weeks around our house. Just to give you an idea of what it has been like...
-5 visits to the pediatrician
-2 hospital visits in the middle of the night
-2 horrible bouts of croup
-1 bout of RSV
-3 ear infections
-2 ingrown toenails
-countless number of never ending runny noses and coughs
-diarrhea including a blowout every single day for 2 weeks ruining all my onesies
-lots of breathing treatments, sitting in the cold, antibiotics, tylenol, etc.
-many sleepless nights

Trying to keep Brady and Easton from constantly getting in Luke's face is a very hard task and keeping Brady and Easton apart is impossible.

I am done with winter. I am done with drastic changes in the weather that always seem to set off another sickness at our house. I am done with sick kids. I am done with copays. I need a vacation. NOW! I think I will book one today!

So sorry, Grace has had RSV too, and now I think she has chicken pox. I'm taking her to the doctor today so we will see. I am so sorry that all 3 of your kids are sick though. That sucks. Maybe we should all go on strike and have a girls day out!

We have been through some of those things this winter and last winter. I feel for you. It was good seeing you at costco. sorry I was talking to you while the boys ran off. I just wanted to say hi real quick. the boys are adorable.

I could totally hear your voice saying that part about being done.

I know how you feel and I hope you get that vacation. I hope everyone gets feeling better soon.

Caitlyn still has RSV too and it is such a pain. I could use a vacation too, but noone to watch kids makes for a difficult thing to pull off. Good luck!

OHHHHH YuCko!!! Sick kids are just plain hard!!! RSV/Croup is just as trying on the mom as it is the child! You're a tough cookie, hang in there!

Jenna said...

Um yea I'm with you!!! Although I am only having it with one....ear infection plus RSV/viral infection/croup (Whatever it is!!!!) If you're ever up in the middle of the night and need someone to commiserate with, know I'll be up too and we can vent together! Yes winter, please be over! This wind and cold weather is making our kids sick! ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!! You and I BOTH need a vacation! Instead of the boys going on golfing trips, we should go on a spa/shopping vacation! Good luck!!!

Seriously, this winter has been awful. Tyler has also been so sick all winter, just one thing after another. I hope they all get better soon.
