Looking up...and down...and sideways

FarmBoy is back up and running...or at least a slow jog. Late yesterday afternoon he passed what we assume is a small kidney stone. So much for "clean urine sample."

The boys are still running fevers. I've been giving Motrin because the "wait & see" approach got us no where. B.B. has come down with a case of pink eye. Luckily we have drops left over from the last bout, so I've been treating him at home. Tomorrow I'll call the doctor's office & get both the boys in for strep cultures. I've had enough of this.

QM & Daddy got here yesterday afternoon. They brought HT with them because Princess has to work all week. QM thought the boys were well when they left. Since they aren't & QM & Daddy can't afford to spread our crud to Busha, Bucka, G'ma & G'pa M&M, or HT, they can't come see us. I took Bitsy to church at Bucka's church this morning so at least we could see them for a bit. Later this week they'll be over. I'm just praying the kids are finally well enough to visit & take HT swimming or out to play!

Bitsy started playing Peek-a-boo last night. She's always loved peek-a-boo, but last night was the first time she'd ever hid her own face. It was so sweet. Our little bit of quiet time to play after the FarmHands went to bed & before FarmBoy woke up to eat last night.

Last night, Uncle E, Big & Little BIL, and RL came over to help us with chores (FarmBoy wanted to do it himself, but I said no!!). I went out to help the guys while RL stayed in with the kids. When I came back in 15 minutes later, #1 Son was tearing through the house screaming, "I can't take this anymore! I'm freaking out here, Mom! We haven't been swimming IN DAYS!!!" I'm hoping for a nice boring week with lots of outside time & pool time....Please, Lord!!
