Well, it has been a while since I have posted anything. I was going to try and catch up while we were on vacation, but I didn't. Lots has been going on with us lately. 1st of all, we went on a road trip to Illinois and Michigan to visit family. Chris's brother, Tim and his wife and kids live in Illinois, so we visited them the weekend before Thanksgiving. On our way to see them, we stopped and had dinner with my cousin, Amy and her husband Christian and their kids. It was so good to see them! After a weekend with Tim and Robin, we headed to Michigan for the week of Thanksgiving. It was good for my mom, stepdad, and sister to get to spend that time with the kids. There was snow, so they got to go sledding, build a snowman, make snow angels, and of course, taste the snow!! While we were there, CAB had a sore throat with red tonsils with white pus pockets and horrible breath!! Thank goodness I have a wonderful pediatrician who knows me and was nice to call in antibiotics so she could get better. Then, CPB is prone to sinus infections and gets asthma like symptoms...he got a dry hacky cough with slight wheezing that the albuterol would not help, so we headed to the walk in clinic where he was diagnosed with a sinus infection, given steroids and an antibiotic. Now he is much better! EB also started a croupy cough that wouldn't break, so she got started on some Orapred. Now that we are home, LG has had congestion for a month or so now, and yesterday, stopped nursing well, and was pulling on her ear. Yep...she has an ear infection. Thank you Publix for the free antibiotics!! Just a side, in case you didn't know, Publix offers a list of FREE antibiotics. Some are Amoxicillin, and Omnicef, but there is a list of 8-10 of them that they give for free. That is for children as well as adults.
I have to admit that I have been spending my time reading everyone else's blogs that I haven't taken that time to blog on mine. I just love my money saving blogs that I have on my sidebar. They keep me up to date on Publix items, coupons and free items. I have been saving lots of money at the grocery store! It has been fun.
I hope to post some updated pictures of the kids soon!
I am very excited about the Christmas holidays, but I am not so excited about spending so much money. My kids need...nothing! They are blessed with plenty of clothes, toys, etc...I am struggling with what to do and get for them this year. If you have any good ideas...please share.
