No fever!

As of this morning neither of the girls have had fever. I am hoping this means they are getting over what they had. Hopefully this means we will be able to leave in time for the holidays. /crosses my fingers.

1st place

That is right! Alexus got 1st place in the Spelling Bee today. She will be moving on to the District Spelling Bee in mid Jan. Means a lot of studying over the holidays! We are so proud of her she is really doing good in school this year. Her goal was to get 1st place at the school one so I asked her what her goal was for district, and she said 1st! Wish her LUCK!

Update

I had to take Alissa ans Ashleigh to the doctor yesterday. Alissa has bulging ear infections. We knew she had double infections, but we didn't know they were as bad as they were. He took her off Amoxicillin and put her on Omnicef cause he said with as bad as they are the Amoxicillin would probably not work. I rather know that the medicine she takes is going to work and not have to worry about her feeling so icky. While we were there he gave her a shot of anti-biotics. When she woke up early this morning she wasn't hot. Yay! So we will see how she feels in a bit. When he was checking Ashleigh out he said that her ears were clear, and that her throat was a lil pink, but that was it. There was no clear signs of what was making her feel so sick. He did a strep throat test, but he doesn't think it is it, but wanted to make sure. He told me to continue her on Tylenol, and Motrin, rotating them. I hope she starts feeling better cause all they have wanted to do is lay around and sleep or cry.

Oh btw, Alexus has her Spelling Bee today so please pray that she does good. She is so determined to make it to district this year, and she wants to do better than she did last year. She is such a focused little girl, and loves to read and spell. I will let you all know how she does.

No Sleep

No sleep is really starting to get to me. I had to take Alissa to the emergency room the other night cause she wouldn't eat, drink or anything and had a high temp. I didn't get home til a lil after 3am. They said she had double ear infections. When I got home Andy told me that Ashleigh had a high temp now too. When Ashleigh is not feeling well she doen't sleep well. She wakes up crying and yelling. I am taking Ashleigh to the doctor today cause we can't get her temp down. She is eating and drinking atleast. Alissa is going in at the same time cause her temp is still too high. They both have been at 101 under their arms so after you add the degree to it they are really at 102. :( I hate when the kids are suck cause you don't know what to do for them. I wish I had a wand I could wave and it all be gone, but as we all know I am not a witch. hehe Please pray that they start feeling better cause we are supposed to leave this weekend for Christmas.

Can't win for loosing:(

Well, I had to take Alissa to the hospital last night. She had a temp yesterday, and we couldn't get rid of it, and she refused to eat or drink. They told me she has double ear infections. Shelby just finished her medication for hers and now poor Alissa has them. Noone is feeling well in our house. I am wore out. I wish there was a magic wand I could use to get them to feeling well.

Ear Infection

Shelby has an ear infection. While we were at her appointment today they all got their H1N1 mist/shots and their regular flu shots. Hopefully they don't get sick cause that would make a really bad weekend for Andy. I have to work so he would be here by himself with sick kids. They didn't get sick from the flu shots last year, but Alexus, Shelby and Ashleigh all got the nasal mist :( which is a live virus. Wish us luck, we may need it.

Ears

Looks like I will be taking Shelby to the doctor. She told us the other day that her ear was hurting, but she told us the next day that they were no longer hurting so I just figured she slept on it wrong. This morning she work up with puss coming out of her ears. I just hope her tubes are still in place and that they don't need replcing again. Please pray that they are fine.
