The Season to be SICK

It never fails that before a trip or the holiday's someone in our house will be sick. So we began our Thanksgiving week off by a trip to the Doctor's office for both kids. Luckily I was able to go with my Mom so I didn't have to try to wrangle both kids. Olivia hasn't been fond of the Dr. office since she had her ears pierced over 1 1/2 years ago.

Weighing in at:

23.1 lbs -- Olivia

&

19.1 lbs. -- Benjamin

I was so proud of Olivia this time, she let Dr. P do everything he needed to with no tears and no whining. It was a pretty stress free visit. It turns out that Olivia has allergies which we knew, but it had turned into bronchitis. Poor kid has been coughing her head off for a long time. She was put on antibiotics and after 7 days is feeling much better. She is such a trooper espeically when it comes to taking her medicine.

Poor little Benjamin he just has a little cold. He is pretty good about being sick, not to fussy and when he sneezes he gets rid of all the snot. Saves us from having to suck his nose out, which he isn't too found of.
