Sick again!

I have no idea why this semester has been so bad with my kids being sick. I have been lucky, but they have pretty much had something every weekend since August. The pediatrician I work with said welcome to the world of school. Jordan did start preschool in August, and ever since, it has been a whirlwind of colds and horrible stomach flus. Well this one just happened to hit poor Kyle pretty hard. He was being a trooper but didn't feel like eating or drinking anything! The trips to the bathroom were just making him too dehydrated so I ended up taking him to the ER for much much needed IV fluid replacement. He is one tough kid and didn't even cry when the nurse put in the IV. Of course they needed a stool sample, which he refused until he just couldn't hold it any longer. Kyle does NOT like to use anyone else's bathroom but his own and will do anything not to have to. Unfortunately for him, he just couldn't avoid it. We should find out in the next few days if he will antibiotics. Until then we will just have to deal with pedialyte and popscicles. The picture below shows it all. He was pretty miserable but was the perfect patient. And, they were not going to make him lay in that bed, he refused. He wanted to sit in the chair and watch SpongeBob.

Blog???

I have heard it from a lot of people lately! "You need to update your blog!" YES I KNOW! I am sorry, but the blog has been on the very bottom of my lost of priorities...along with cleaning and laundry. Honestly, I thought that this semester was supposed to be the easy one. It's not hard, it's just sooooo busy with lots of dumb paperwork. I just finished up my psych rotation...THANK GOODNESS! Let's just say I have seem some of the craziest of the crazies! It was a good experience, but I am so glad it's over. On the med/surg next week. Not that I particularly like that area either, but it will be nice to get back to something more familiar without having to watch your back! The boys are doing well and Jordan has started preschool. They are each others best friend and play all day long. I don't know what Kyle is going to do when Jordan goes to school all day long next year. YAY! Other than that, there is nothing new. I will try and update more but don't be surprised if the next one isn't until December.
