A SICK house... just about!

Well, it hasn't been the best week here at the Leonard's but overall we are doing alright! It all started last weekend ...we had such a great weekend with a baby shower for Aunt Julie here at the house and Mimi was in town visiting and spending time with the kids! It was lots of fun.... then the stomach virus attacked the house!!! Mimi, Steven, and then Mommy were all victims. It was miserable. LUCKILY, the kids seemed to be fine. We think Lucy might have had a touch of it but nothing too bad.
Then....Lucy started acting a little funny on Wednesday. She wasn't wanting to take her bottles at school (if you have ever seen Lucy take a bottle you would know that this is HIGHLY unusual! She usually freaks out and attacks it when she sees it) She was happy and active and doing fine otherwise. We called to ask and the doctor and they said they thought it was teething and her mouth was bothering her but since she was so happy they weren't concerned. Then on Thursday, we took her in to see the doctor because she had a low fever. Dr G checked her out and said she looked great but was fighting a little virus, otherwise physically fine. THEN... on Friday it all went downhill for poor sweet Lucy! After a VERY LONG night, we took her back to the dr. this morning (looking completely pitiful) and the small virus turned into double pink eye and an ear infection. The virus turned into a head cold which caused the drainage into her ears and eyes! POOR girl! She is doing better tonight and we are hoping she will get some good rest. It has been really tough seeing that bright eyed little girl look so sad. She is a trooper and we are proud of her! Her first cold...well, it's been a rough one!

Jack is just hanging in there at 90mph! Hopefully if we make it through this weekend with him, then he will have been the lucky family member during our SICK WEEK!

Besides the sick cloud that has been hovering over our house the past week, things are going great! Lucy has continued to do well at school, Steven's job is going great and he is really enjoying the training and all of his "tests", Jack is loving his new class at school and they have said he is doing awesome! He comes home everyday to tell us what a "great job" he did on his school work that day! He is so fun right now!

Now...if the temps could just stop dropping we would be in good shape. Fall is near... Oktoberfest is already in the stores!
