Back to School Sickness

So it seems that back to school brought viruses back to our home. Dennis has had a sore throat for a few days now. Kaitlyn has been coughing and a runny nose. Kyleigh has some congestion and really fussy that turned out to be another ear infection - no thanks to the tube in the left ear that is still malfunctioning. To top it off, today I woke with a fever, headache, chills, bodyaches and a seriously sore throat. What a mess and just before a long 3 day weekend that was supposed to be full of family time and friends - urr! Hopefully this will give us all time to get rested and well before another work week begins. Kyleigh has lost weight again and it is mainly due to her reduced eating that is probably due to the ear infection. This Wednesday we go for a pre-op appointment to have the ear tube replaced the following Thursday, Sept 17th. After the pre-op she has a recheck with the pediatrician for her weight and ear. She is now 12lbs 2 oz and hopefully with the antibiotic she will increase her eating again and put on a few more ounces or maybe even a pound before next week. Despite it all Kyleigh has adjusted well to Friendly Avenue and Kaitlyn loves PreK and her new teachers.

Hoping everyone else is enjoying their Labor Day weekend.
