Weekend Recap: Strep Throat Woes

We started off our weekend with a strep throat & scarlet fever diagnosis from Buddy's pediatrician. 


This child is never sick. In fact, this was the first time I've ever had to take him to the doctor for a "sick visit." Bless his heart, he was so pitiful. I knew something was up as soon as he stayed on the couch for more than 5 minutes straight. 

The next morning, this little girl started complaining of a headache. Sure enough, she was running a fever too. Thankfully though, I didn't have to make any trips to the urgent care because she perked up quickly and has been fine every since. 




Sickness is very rare in our house (praise The Lord!) so we are certainly not use to doctors, medicine, and fevers. I prayed extra hard that none of the rest of us would come down with strep throat, too. 

So far, so good. Everyone is feeling and acting energetic this morning. So much so that while playing a little indoor basketball, Buddy knocked off a decorative plate from the kitchen wall and it shattered into a million tiny shards of glass all over the place. 

Just another manic Monday! :) 

In other weekend news, Mr. Fix-it decided Baby CJ needed his first taste of chocolate milkshake. And while he was definitely smitten with the sugary treat, his Mommy wasn't so happy with having a hyped up baby during what was suppose to be his nap time a couple of hours later.




You know it's the 4th born child when you grab your camera for pictures instead of being freaked out that your husband is feeding your 5 month old chocolate! 

But don't worry, I just finished pureeing a healthy batch of bananas, avocado, and sweet potatoes for his meals this week.



Happy Monday!
