Walking Virus!

Little buddy Harrison has been struggling lately, we just can't seem to get him better. He brought a cold home with him from Utah, and it's been up and down since then! So this morning, after a few nights without sleep and a fever off and on since Christmas, I finally decided to just take him in and have him looked at. I was pretty sure it was a really bad cold and/or an ear infection... turns out it's both, but to my surprise, that wasn't all! He also has strep, which is supposed to be pretty uncommon in kids his age! So, I feel like a horrible mom for making him suffer through it, thinking it was going to run it's course! But the good news... we have drugs now that might actually help! And we can finally get this kid better! (And maybe even get some sleep tonight!)

This is a picture from nap time yesterday! Jackson came out to tell me that Harrison was under the bed. When I got in there, all I could hear was snoring! He crashed pretty hard under there. Fortunately Patrick was home and could crawl under and get him out! (I don't exactly fit under beds these days!)
