And so it spreads...

So Jacob still is refusing antibiotic, but we have managed to sneak a half dose into him today via Nutella and chocolate milk. It is exhausting! The doctor said if he doesn't start taking it tonight, we will probably have to arrange for a home care nurse to come over daily for five days to give him an IV with the antibiotic in it. Strange as it sounds, that would probably be easier than getting him to take it orally. But we are trying!

Sydney woke up in the middle of the night feeling hot, so she is on antibiotics as well. And by mid-day today Natalie had already taken a nap and was just not herself. Now she says her ear hurts and she has a temp of almost 102. We're having trouble getting her to take Tylenol, but she did take some antibiotic...woohoo!

Hopefully Chris and I will manage to get past this without being sick ourselves. It could be a very UN-FUN Father's Day otherwise.

Oh no! We are going throught that sickness in our home right now also! I think it has actually hit my husband the hardest.
