Our luck has run out

We had a good run without the girls needing antibiotics. About two weeks ago Reese came down with a fever. I didn't run out to the doctor right away because its NEVER anything. After three days of a fever of 101 we went in. Sure enough, an ear infection. My poor girl got to the doctor and started complaining of her ear and he said it was pretty bad. You could see it in her eyes too. After 4 years and 5 months Reese got her first dose of the pink stuff. I'd say that is VERY VERY lucky!!


Saige also had never had anything beyond motrin. Today I did a little race down town and the girls stayed with their Nana. Poor Saige came down with a fever. It didn't bother me too bad. They gave her motrin and I assumed it was probably a fever virus. In the back of my mind I kept thinking "hope its not the flu" because everyone and their dog seems to have it. She woke up burning hot and threw up everywhere. Aaron is the BEST because he always cleans it up-carpet, sheets, hair, clothes...he did it. I took Saige to urgent care to see if it was the flu. They tested her for strep and the flu. The came in and looked at her ears and said she has an ear infection, then said the strep was positive. He said the flu was negative but then said "no its positive". Not sure which it is but reguardless I have one sick girl and she is getting some antibiotics. Fun stuff. She went almost 3 years without anything too! I don't know how we got so lucky but its over now. LOL!

And please pray that Reese, me, Aaron, Kara, Amber, her girls, Nana and Papaw all stay flu/strep free.
