Bring It.

OK, seriously. Life has thrown it all at us this week. But we're still standing. Bruised and battered, maybe, but standing nonetheless. You hear that, Life? Haven't taken us down yet!

Here's a rundown:
1 - The preschool debate raged on. But we made a decision. We've enrolled Milo in the Lindbergh Early Childhood program 4 days a week: http://pages.lindberghschools.ws/education/school/school.php?sectiondetailid=85 We should get his orientation letter next week, and then he begins on June 2.

2 - Baby Hank's sleep has been crap. But took him BACK to the pediatrician Monday afternoon. Verdict: ear infection. Antibiotics started. (He hates it.)

3 - Sitter's boy gets a fever Wednesday morning. Pick up our boys and take them back home. This is after I was *just* at her house to drop off bottles. Sent milk for Hank, but no bottles.

4 - Milo gets a fever Thursday afternoon. 103 until Motrin kicks in each time.

5 - Aaron hurts his toe. Has to go to a podiatrist Thursday afternoon. In the meantime, hobbling around.

6 - Aaron's mom had to be taken from the nursing home to the ER to get a boil lanced on her back.

7 - Hank STILL getting up average of 2x each night. Usually around 3am and 5am, which KILLS when I have to be up for the day by 5:45am at the latest.

8 - Especially when checking on Milo at 4am in between there, who then wakes up at 5:20am crying. :(

9 - Milo's fever gone, but he's complaining that his mouth and head hurt.

10 - Get Milo into the pediatrician (a fete in itself, as their office is switching to an electronic system so only have half the appointments they normally do). Quick swab for strep negative. Could still be that, or Hand, Foot & Mouth, or a viral throat infection. Antibiotics started just in case.

I think that's it. I'm just waiting for Baby Hank to get whatever it is that Milo has. And who knows what else is coming? But whatever. Bring it on.
