Sickness, Yet Again

I feel like I'm in the movie Groundhog Day, where the poor man keeps re-living the same day over and over......I hated that movie. It drove me crazy because I never knew when it would end. That's kind of like the sickness that has descended on our home. We're going on week number 3 now, and I'm so over it!! Landon got it first, the coughing, sneezing, misery, etc. He was better the following week. Then at some point Mike and I both got it (and are still trying to get completely over the coughing portion)...and as luck would have it, Landon now has it- or something else AGAIN!! For a couple of days, we put Bailey in charge because he was the only one who wasn't sick! I have completely disinfected every stationary surface in my home with Lysol. Yesterday, Landon and I spent 2 hours at the pediatrician's office and left with 3 prescriptions...one for pink eye (oh yeah!), one for an ear infection, and one for the croup! That doesn't include anything for the diarrhea he had for over a week. The doctor seemed to think the pink eye, ear infection, cough, and diarrhea were caused by the same bug. His pink eye doesn't really look like traditional pink eye, but that's what we're treating it as. Unfortunately for my faithful blog followers, I have no cute pictures or videos to share, just a prayer request for good health and a little extra sanity. Oh my, summer can't possibly come soon enough!
