Sick, Sick, Sick, Sick


All of the kids have gone to the doctor this week (each on a different day). It is extremely frustrating to get home from Jeffery's doctor visit on Thursday night and find out Ethan has a fever as well. Now Katherine has a fever today! So I will make the familiar call to the doctor's office in the morning. It would have been nice and convenient for all of them to get sick at exactly the same time. Well, I'm just grateful that they don't have the flu, since that would be much worse than everyone having bronchitis. I just have to share the chart that I made to keep up with each child's medicine. With all this medicine to dole out, I made a major error twice. I gave Ethan ibuprofen, and he is allergic to it. Right after he swallowed I realized what I had done and immediately gave him benadryl. Katherine was so sweet to write a large sign, "Remember don't give Ethan ibprofen" to stick on the fridge.
