What's New?

Well, I bet you all been wondering "Where's Jan?", "Why hasn't she posted in the longest time?" (not really because I know that you all have better things to do than worry about me, but in Jan World, people worry about me). And in answer to all your burning questions, I started to think about what I had been doing these last two weeks and this is what I came up with.

Well, I last posted on January 8th, after that rivoting post, I took Luke to the doctor to check the tubes in his ears. They looked fine and he was doing well!!! The next few days after that were unmentionable until we get to the week of the 12th. Busy, Busy!! I had appointments and watched lots of kids (lots). Then about on Wednesday I noticed that Josh had this cold and it was accompanied by lots of wheezing. I decided to take him to the asthma doctor on Thursday to which she told me that I needed to give him oral steroids and treatment every few hours. He was so bad that she wanted me to keep him home from school to do the treatments. So after several days of that he finally was doing better.

Now this brings us to around the 19th. Another week of meetings and stuff, but this week, Brian was off the ENTIRE week. How nice, right? Maybe we would get to do something together like go snowmobiling. Well, Luke started running a fever on Thursday. Every 3 hours he had to be given drugs to keep his fever down. We have no idea why he had the fever, he just did. A new form of parental torture maybe? Anyway, today is the first day he has not had a fever. It mysteriously went away just as mysteriously as it had appeared.

And to top it off, Brian and I DID plan on doing some snowmobiling, but it has been so warm here that the snow all melted and it hasn't snowed all week until today. . . .a good couple of inches today. Just in time for Brian to go back to work tomorrow!!!

So there ya have it!! This is what's new here!!!

Aww, having sick kids is no fun! Perhaps Brian needs to be "sick" one day when there's snow on the ground, so you can get in your ride!

Sorry to hear about your last couple of weeks! Sick kids are the worse, your life revolves around making them feel better while putting all your plans on hold. Hope this week goes better for you!

Sounds familiar! I am so sick of sick kids! I am heading south in three weeks and there may or may not be kids with me. If they are sick they are getting left behind!
