Doctor visits and such

Today was Kayelynn's 6 month well baby check up. I'm pleased to report that she's perfect. (I had no doubts, did you) She is in the 90th percentile for ht and wt. (Guess she did ok on "just" breastmilk!) Also her head circumference is in the 95th percentile. I seem to produce babies with big heads. We used to joke and call Trey Elmer Fudd because his head was so big. Looks like Kayelynn's not too far behind her brother.
Things are going to get messier around here as we will start trying some veggies in the next few weeks. She still likes her cereal at night but thinks she is supposed to eat it with her fingers.
I'm glad that we don't still live in the times of the plague because I've decided that me and mine would all be dead. Trey and I have been sick off and on for the past 5weeks. I thought at the start of this week were getting back to normal. Then Rex came down with the lingering cold we'd had. He has felt miserable for the past few days now and his work schedule doesn't allow for sickness.
Last night Trey informed me that he was too sick to spend the night at Grandmas. I knew he must really feel bad to give up a night of eating candy, jumping on the couch, watching movies in Grandmas bed, and pretty much getting anything he wanted. I asked him what was wrong but he didn't seem to know how to tell me, "just sick" he'd say. How could I make it better I inquired. "I jus need my bed". Now I knew he was sick! He didn't put up a fight at all getting ready for bed. After getting cleaned up he just walked to his room and climbed in bed. "Take care of me Mommy" he said quietly while I tucked him in. I was so glad I didn't have to leave for work. That would have broke my heart.
Trey continued to have a pitiful day. He ended up with a fever and crying that his ear hurt. That was a first for him. Its good to have a doctor around at times like these. Rex checked out Treys ears and ordered an antibiotic for him.....and one for me.
It seems I am trying to develop mastitis. So far it has not been a pleasant experience. Its made worse by the 3 year old who has become incapacitated with ear pain and the baby who I swear is teething. So here I lie in a semi feverish state blogging away. It is my relaxation for the night. But I must go now because I think my eyelids are nearly closed.

Hey Chickadee. you had better be careful. I need you to take care of yourself since us girls can't be right there to keep an eye on you and take care of you. Hey Rex, give Heather a hug for me and a little extra TLC for today to let her know I'm tinking of her. Try to relax on this one beautiful Sunday before more rain and cooler tempeatures come. Miss you.
