So behind...

Wow, I am really behind on the blog posting. We just cannot shake the illnesses around here. As Paige's ear infection started to clear up, Rose took a turn for the worst and wound up with croup. Her breathing was really bad one night and I drove her to the ER at 11:00pm on the advice of the nurse on Telehealth. As we were driving there, her breathing improved, and after sitting in the waiting room with all of the other sickies for 20 minutes, it became clear that a)we would not be seen for a long time b)she was totally fine, and c)if we stayed there for much longer I would be a tired wreck on the road. So we just went home and got through the night. After a few days, her croupy cough broke and a regular cough set in that she is still getting over.

Around the same time I had a super sore throat that was all white. I assumed it was strep, but was apparently Tonsillitis!! That was pretty darn sore for about 5 days. Then...

On Saturday I woke up at 3:00am as Rose was coughing and I blinked once...blurry, blinked twice....blurry....checked it out in the bathroom....PINKEYE! RAGING out of control pinkeye!! AGAIN!!!! I think it was lingering in my makeup, that's all I can think of. The makeup is gone now just to be sure. Everyone else is pinkeye free.

We're feeling pretty run down though from this constant illness. Blog posting is one thing that has suffered as there have been a lot of early nights, or late nights sitting with a coughing Rose.
