Still smiling...even with a double ear infection. Poor guy!
Thanksgiving turned out to be a pretty uneventful day at the Lofgren house. I hung out with the little ones while Robby played golf. Katie "helped" me make pumpkin cookies. And by "helped", I mean she licked the beaters clean when I was done mixing the frosting. At 4:00, we headed over to my mother-in-laws. We had a picture marathon with the kids, ate dinner, played celebrity, and then headed off to bed to prepare for our Black Friday shopping extravaganza.
I'm beginning to think that we now have a Black Friday family curse on our shoulders.
Last year, after a 7 hour shopping spree, I returned home to a son that was burning up and feeling quite icky. After a quick trip to my wonderful pediatricians office, Bobby was diagnosed with pneumonia and given a prescription for heavy-duty antibiotics.
This year, I returned home to find not one but two children that were feeling under the weather. After another quick trip to Tanque Verde pediatrics, I came out out of the office feeling like I could win the Mother of the Year award hands down. My beautiful princess Katie presented with a double ear infection and was given ear drops and antibiotics. My poor little Andy had an ear infection in his left ear that has been causing his cough to hang on. He hates taking his medicine and has to be tag teamed to get it all down.
Hopefully, the medicine will mend everyone's little ears and allow things to get back to normal. (If there is any such thing as normal in this house.)
