What a Week!

This has without a doubt been one of those weeks that anyone would look back at and wonder how we all managed to survive.  We were again able to pay the pediatrician's office TWO visits this week.  The first was for Leah's follow-up appointment for her ears.  I am happy to announce that miraculously her ears looked perfect, so for now we have decided to wait on the ENT consult and hope that she doesn't have another infection anytime soon.  Due to some sickness she had over that weekend involving fever and a terrible cough the doctor put her on albuterol nebulizer treatments for the time being until the wheezing is resolved.  Have any of you every had to give nebulizer treatments to a 14-month-old??  Let's just say, I'm soooo glad that she finally warmed up to the idea!  Thankfully the treatments have been helping quite a bit with the coughing, allowing us all to get some much needed rest over the last few nights :)  The second visit we paid the pediatrician was for Michael who was also struggling with high fever and a cough so bad that he was throwing up.  Of course his was viral and they couldn't really do anything for him.  So after waiting that out he is now doing better for the most part.  So far Lexi has yet to catch anything miraculously! 

With this past week behind us and with Spring officially here, there seems to be so much more responsibility on our plates.  Between kids, work, church, baseball practice, more work, family time, and yard work starting already there is never enough time in the day to get everything done.  I find myself thinking that since it's still daylight out that I've got plenty of time to finish up with supper and get kids to bed...then glancing at the clock I am reminded of the recent time change and wonder where in the world the evening went.  Part of me loves the time change because it means that we have more daylight in the evening when I get home from work to enjoy with the kids.  It also means that pretty soon the temperatures will be getting warmer and warmer. Bring on summer is all I have to say!  :)
