What a long day!!!

Well it has been a long day here. Woke up to Sarah screaming and the boys breaking my lap top. Daddy was angry but got it fixed. In the meantime, I tried feeding Sarah and all she would do is scream and wouldn't eat and was again dealing with a fever (low grade but fever nonetheless) so off the doctors we go. Thank God my pediatrician office has emergency hours on Saturdays. They thought it might be her ears but once examining her her ears were fine but her throat was raw (like raw meat the MD said). So they ran a strep test. Now I didn't know but strep in infants is rare but they ran one anyway as there has been a lot of kids with strep around. That test came back negative and was told she just had a virus infection in her throat and all we could do was wait it out and give tylenol/motrin and try feeding her 30-45mins after meds and she should be comfortable to eat.

I come home the boys are going nuts and Richard said he was going to mow the lawn at the new house. I was able to get Robert down for a nap and Sarah ate and was sleeping as well when daddy came home. We had a wedding reception to go to at 5pm for some friends of ours who's son was married in Colorado in May and what happens??????? Robert wakes up with a fever of 101.4 and not happy. UGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So tyelonl for Robert and daddy stays home with 2 kids and Caleb goes with me to the party.

I was so proud of Caleb. He was such a good boy and made such good choices while we were there. But again once we were home the 'horns' came out and was just awful. I guess if you can only have of the two behaviors I would chose he behave in public and we can deal with naughty thigs at home. When bedtime came he was jumping on his bed and fell and tried to (as Richard said) 'push his teeth through his top lip'......yup he now has a fat busted lip....... man on man has it been a day of trouble with the kids.....

But everyone is now medicated and in bed and sleeping. Quietness reigns again in the Harmond House. But morning comes fast.

Tomorrow is church where Richard get's to be a dog!!!!!! Will let that one sit for a day or so and the ya'lls imagination run where it will. LOL

I will be taking some pictures of the new house tomorrow and of the kids so I can post some newer updated stuff. OOOOOOOO looks like we are going to try hard to get as much moved into the new house this coming up Sat July 5th. Richard's brother and sister-in-law are going to be in town and will have their truck so they are offering to help us move what we can/want moved in. So this week we will be getting a new phone and new phone number. Wish us luck!!!!

Blessings
