A Better Day?

So I took the girls back to the doctor on Monday, thank goodness.  All three were put on different antibiotics, which currently has its own set of problems, but that’s a whole other story.  The doctor said Addie’s sinuses and ears were “a reservoir of infection.”  That’s not exactly the phrase I wanted to hear about her.  On the plus side, because she has those beloved tubes in her ears, all that nastiness has been able to drain.  It hasn’t been pretty.  It’s been a little scary, since that’s the first time I’ve seen bloody gunk (for lack of a better word) drain from my child’s ears.  This is the child who never complains about anything, and she’s been complaining about her ears hurting.  I hope we’re on the right track now.  They’ve eased up on their draining considerably, so that’s positive.  Her doctor wanted to see her yesterday to check her out, so we went back.  She said that everything is looking better, and her eardrums and tubes are in good shape.  There is definitely a light at the end of the tunnel. 

I’m currently trying to get everything ready so the girls & I can head to the farm for a few days over spring break.  I have to get my Avon orders delivered this afternoon and tomorrow morning, but that shouldn’t take too long.  Getting the house back in working condition before we leave is going to be the bigger task.  Sick kids do not a clean house make! :)  Wish us luck!
