Icky Sicky Poo-poo

What's a boy to do on a day when he feels like this?



Bake and frost cookies of course!



Yesterday Izzy had her 6 year well visit (we just returned from a whirlwind weekend of fun in Greensboro late Sunday night) and while she is as perfect as can be, Drew is not. He didn't even want to eat any ice-cream after dinner...



Drew and I were at Izzy's school for her Valentine's Day party when he began to cough while sitting on my lap. I felt his head and immediately knew he had a fever. As luck would have it, I was taking Izzy with me after her party for her 6 year well visit. We hustled out of the party and headed to the doctor.

While Izzy was getting her physical, I asked the nurse to take Drew's temp. 103! Yup, nothing like being the new patients in town and causing problems from the get-go. While Izzy had her well visit, Drew got a flu test done as well as a strep test. He was less then thrilled with a q-tip shoved up his nose and another shoved down his throat, but what's a mom to do?

While Drew tested positive for strep. Izzy's stats are as follows:

weight: 40.2 lbs placing her in the 21%. (Drew weighed in at 40.2 as well).

height: 42.75 in. placing her in the 10%.

update on 2/16 Drew is still sick and his fever has yet to break. He is holding steady between 102.8-104. He has had 4 doses of antibiotics and I'm hoping he will take a turn for the better soon. As I type this he is outside riding his scooter with Izzy. I don't think he wants to be outside, but his sister wasn't taking "no" for an answer. Hopefully the fresh air will do him some good.
