What is This? Walgreens?!

The last few weeks have been crazy around here with my sweet babies getting sick.  We found out Brady had thrush right after Thanksgiving.  So, we had to get her on some oral meds to try to clear it up.  That same week, Brad was battling a bout of bronchitis - which, by the way, he is still coughing from.  Brady's thrush began to spread into her diaper, so we had to refill her meds and add an entire diaper changing regimen with a prescription for a special powder to help clear her up.  Last week, Knox came down with a double ear infection, which produced many sleepless nights for him (and me!).  And last night, Brady ended up at the after-hours doctor because she began crying... no, more like screaming, in pain around 5:00 pm and we couldn't get her to stop.  After a thorough check, we found out she too, had an ear infection.  At her follow-up this morning with her regular pediatrician, she said it was not just one ear, but both ears.  Oh, and her thrush isn't cleared up yet, so now she's on a more powerful medicine.  UGH.  Poor babies.

My house looks like a pharmacy and I'm literally writing things down so that I don't get confused as to who to do what to when.  Got that?!  But, I will say, that I'd much rather deal with these types of sicknesses than the puking kind... (like my poor sis-in-law last week!).  Hopefully Tate stays clear of all of this and the little ones will be back on the mend sooner than later.
