Murphy's Law

Thursday, I finally took Matt and Joey to the doctor to get their cough's checked. Sure enough, seasonal allergies are the cause. Matt also had an ear infection. Friday, Kate's week-old bee sting on her toe started swelling up again. By the end of the day, her foot was swollen so bad that we couldn't get shoes on.

Murphy's law: Part A. If you take the kids to the Dr, the one you didn't take will need to be taken in the next day for something. Part B. Usually it is 4:30 on a Friday when you decide you HAVE to take your child in to the Dr. Thank goodness for doctors who have After Hours clinics!

P.S. Kate's bee sting got infected. Weird, huh?

Surprisingly, she's not in any pain. She only limps on that foot because the swelling feels weird. And she loves the taste of her antibiotics. Woohoo!

I hope the boys feel better soon, and Kate too.

Your blog is cute...different from the first one. I love it.

My mom stepped on a bee last week and her foot swelled up to the size of Texas. It got infected and she is now on Cipro. Wierd that Kate's got infected too. I've never heard of a bee sting getting infected. Hope everyone feels better soon, Ben and Sam have allergies too this week and the bark cough. Yuck!
