Sick

Well, both kids have been sick all week. James went to bed Sunday night with the highest fever he's ever had. Took him to the doctor Monday morning and he had an ear infection. His fever started going down Monday and by yesterday he seemed all better.
Got a call from Elizabeth's school Monday telling us to come pick her up because she had thrown up. If that doesn't tell you how bad she felt - when Dave got there to pick her up she was asleep in the office. For those of you who don't know her very well, she is not the kind of kid to just fall asleep. She RARELY even falls asleep in the car even when she's exhausted. So, she came home rested all day - had a fever and just generally didn't feel good. But, by Tuesday she seemed much better.
So, I thought we were pretty much on the upswing - I was looking forward to getting back to normal life. Then Wednesday morning Elizabeth went into her room at 8:30 AM and fell asleep in bed - this NEVER happens. She hasn't taken a morning nap in over 2 years, literally. She slept for 2 hours and continued to be tired and fussy yesterday.
Then James had an incredibly rough night last night and woke up this morning with a fever again.
The good news is that is seems Elizabeth is pretty much better. At least for today.

On a side note - Elizabeth and I just measured how tall she is using these MegaBloks that she has. She's 49 MegaBloks tall just in case you needed to know that. :)
