Poor Kids....

Our poor kids have not had much luck these last few weeks...

Two weeks ago Jason cut off a good chunk of the tip of his finger (the fleshy part above the fingernail) using kid scissors (!!) while cutting a piece of paper just for fun.  We spent Sunday at the Instacare getting him stitches.  He got 7 stitches on the tip of his little finger.

The next weekend Shelly was sounding a bit horse and spent a chunk of the day napping.  She spent the next 6 days home from church and school.  I finally took her to the doctor on Friday when the cough didn't clear up and had started sounding worse.  She has walking pneumonia.  It had started out as a virus, but had turned at some point...  She's on antibiotics.

Then on Saturday Emily started getting a runny nose and Sunday Annie joined the party with both an icky nose and a funny sounding voice.  They both had mild fevers last night so I drugged them (yea tylenol!) right before bed hoping it would help them sleep a bit better.

Even Nikki has gotten in on the action with mild nose issues.  Thankfully she's stopped there so far.  Lets hope it stays that way!
