sickness...again




I truly don't remember it being this bad growing up with 5 kids in our family, but I'm sure it probably was. It seems every time that one of us gets sick, we spend weeks passing it around to each other and trying to get over it. So far with this round Christopher had a fever and sore throat, but was able to kick it; Caylee was the first to be put on Zithromax, followed by Cade--hopefully that will be the end of it, though Connor had a sore throat with a fever a few days ago. Dr. Seufer is such a good doctor. I don't think she has ever turned us down for an appointment; she always makes time for us. Plus, there have been several times where she has called us on her off hours to check on the kids, and has assured us that we can call her at home if we need to. What a good doctor! When I took Cade in on Friday, he was such a big boy! He was calm and knew exactly what to do. He never once got scared and he completely cooperated. He got to choose a sticker at the end of his visit, and he was VERY proud of his spongebob sticker. It was scratch and sniff after all. I am grateful that our sickness is minor and that I can be home with the kids to take care of them. Here are a couple of pitiful pictures of Cade when he was running a fever. Notice little sis--what a nurturer she already is.
