We have had quite the two weeks! Dan was scheduled for 'feet' surgery on the 6th in Stevens Point, WI. His cousin was doing the surgery and we planned to stay with them for a few days while he recovered. The night we got there I got a non-violent case of the flu, which then Liam got and Connor too. Dan was laid up with boots on his feet, I wasn't feeling well, Liam had developed the worst diaper rash I had ever seen and Connor had a 103 temp and ear pains. What a fun bunch, eh? After three days of constant chaos in someone elses house with sick kids and an injured husband, I called it quits and we left early.
The night we got home Connor was up all night screaming in pain from his ear. Turns out his ear drum ruptured! We visited an ENT on Tuesday and Connor was scheduled for tubes on Thursday. Although we heard it goes quick, it seemed to take forever and nothing breaks your heart more than seeing your little one hooked up to IVs and in pain, too sick to eat or sit comfortably. He is doing great now with no pain and we are hopeful that this will eliminate his ear issues.
On a good note, Liam started walking this week as seen in the video below!! Its so fun watching him gain more confidence as he conquers more steps in a row. Connor gets so excited when he walks too.
I have decided to begin posting quotes of the week heard around our house.
This weeks quote: Connor(as he watches)-"Mom, Liam's eating trash!"
