RSV....gah

Last week, Ross was sick. On Feb. 13, Patrick brought Ross to the doctor. He was diagnosed with RSV and had to stay home the whole week. We had to do around the clock breathing treatments. Pretty much a week after he started with symptoms he got a fever....turns out the RSV made him get an ear infection. 2 days after the antibiotics he's normal again.

Then, Sunday night (19th), Alex had 99.8 temp. I gave him Motrin and he was fine the next morning. Then Monday night he had 100.1 temp, gave him Motrin and he was fine. Tuesday was Mardi Gras day, he was a bit calm but no temp. On Wednesday (22) he came to Ross's check-up with me and while in the office with the doctor, he coughed and she said she wanted to check him for RSV. Turns out, Alex contracted it. He also had an ear infection.

As we lied in bed tonight, Alex was complaining of his cheek hurting. I assume it's the ear infection. The doctor gave us antibiotics so if Alex is still complaining in the middle of next week, I guess we'll go to the doctor again. That will be 4 visits in 2 weeks.

I hope the RSV stops here because Patrick nor I can miss more work.

Fun with Aunt Meggie

Happy Mardi Gras

The boys loved Mardi Gras. Ross fought his nap but finally gave in. Alex was sick with RSV and I didn't know it. The week prior, Ross had RSV. Enjoy the pictures!

A black eye

While house hunting with Granny, Alex literally flew down the stairs. He got a concussion and we went to the hospital.

In the hospital an hour after the hit.

Later that night.


The next morning...
