More Poop

Walk into the nursery to get babies up from nap and Taylor is standing, holding her hands up at me....poop all over both of them. I see no poop anywhere else? Where is it coming from???? I changed her and apparently she was carefully putting her hands down the back of her pants into her diaper. Nice. Looks like we've got a new problem. Least she didn't have it any where near her mouth this time. lol

Front Yard

Playing catch up with photos. This seems like a long time ago now. When it was warm. They were running from me and Luke ended up clocking his head on the front porch. What happened to fall anyhow? This was in September before all the kooties came. LT are really snotty. What the heck? Anyhow....enjoy the pics.

Amazed by the tree.

Ali was trying to herd Luke for me...maybe I should work with him to help me out...cuz I need it...boogers are getting fast.

I'm so glad Ali has decided to like LT. Wasn't so sure when they were little.

Ali didn't like her up at the fence when there were people out. He was right there.

Head injury. He tripped on the brick and hit his head on the porch...see why I have anxiety with them running about outside? Always something.

Monkey see...monkey do....Luke still does what she does.

Our home...the ever continuing project.

The Last 3 weeks

I'll spare you from the caked on snot pictures. Taylor was covered in it when she woke when this ICK started. I'd have to use a warm wash cloth and gently try to get it off so she could breathe through her nose. It started with the cold.....then Taylor's pink eye.

Still Taylor even when she's sick.

Then Luke and I got pink eye. I'll spare you from my gross pictures.

ICK.

He has his moments too...see his bottom molars coming in here?

Then came Luke's ear infection.
Then Taylor's ear infection
Then high fevers for Luke...and miserable nights for us all.
And now this post viral rash and coughing.

It covers his body. The doctor called to check up on him today and I'm supposed to call in every day to report how he is. No fever so far.....he's just cranky...he slept well last night. He woke once coughing and Taylor twice.......much better then before. Lord......heal these babies up!

I just put them to nap and said...now I pray you two nap for me.....Taylor crossed her hands then Luke did and Taylor said..."Let's Pray" so I did.....then they both repeated....."MAY MEN" Cute.

Poor Luke

Seriously......can we get a break?

Luke broke out in what they say is a post viral rash. It's all over his body and is even inside his ears. He's miserable and the doctor said he'll be miserable for about 3 days. He still have fluid behind his ears so if there's any sign of pain, fluid coming out or fever he wants to put him on something stronger. If he gets a fever again or if the rash worsens...they want him in again. He had a chest xray today and thankfully that was clear. That was NOT fun. It was past nap and lunch and they confined him in this contraption that he was too big for with his arms squeezed up in the air. He was SCREAMING. Taylor seems much better today. She coughed a lot last night but I'm hoping she has a better night tonight. Luke is coughing a lot. Praying he sleeps.

Thankfully...Nick's mom was able to watch Taylor during all this. I'm so glad because it was enough to take care of Luke with all the waiting, xrays and fussiness. :(

Sickness Continued + All 4 Molars for Luke

I understand now how hard it is for a mommy to watch a sick baby. Luke got really miserable yesterday. Crying, whiny and wanting held constantly. He had a fever even being on Motrin. I was concerned and called the doc on call. We did get it down to 101 by taking clothes off and wiping him down with a washcloth. The doc said if it gets to 105 or 6 to call him back or if he's still hanging onto the fever by Monday to bring him in again. Thank goodness for applesauce. It's the biggest hot right now with both Luke and Taylor. Nick and I prayed over Luke last night...I was concerned his fever would get worse over night. After the Motrin was up in Luke's system, we gave him Tylenol and he got MUCH better. It brought his fever down. Wondering if it works better for him. Both Luke and Taylor were up a lot last night again. I was up probably a total of 10 times between them. I'd go in, they'd be crying and standing....I'd calm them down, check for fever, give them more Tylenol if it was time and lay them back down. I noticed today that Luke is getting ALL FOUR MOLARS at once! No wonder the poor guy is miserable. I'm exhausted. So ready for them to feel better. I miss church. I'm so glad they are better fever wise today. Thank you Lord. Taylor is blowing snot bubbles today which is yummy....but I'd much rather than then the fevers. I also noticed the injection area from her shots is red and swollen. I'll call the doc about that Monday if it doesn't look better. I don't think there's anything they or I can do for that. We'll see. Praying things improve from here on out. :)
