The Hospital is our FRieNd


I really wish I had not become so acquainted with the hospital lately. Randy's Dad had his open heart surgery on Monday and everything went well he is now out of the ICU and in a much more comfortable room. The kids were able to see him last night and loved eating dinner in the cafeteria. Ok so hospital food really isn't that bad. However when we got home last night Andrews face looked really red and puffy so I gave him some benedryl and made sure his face cleared up before I put him to bed. He looked better so I put him in his bed. I was up all night with Jaci because she still had a fever that began Monday evening. Jaci still had a fever this morning so I thought I would make an appointment to take her in thinking maybe an ear infection or something. I am getting ready for day waiting to call the dr. and Andrew comes in to go potty I was helping him with his britches and take one look at his rear and back and well I called the Dr right then to get him and appointment too. It was the craziest looking "rash" I have ever seen. So now we are back from the Doc they both seem to have Viral infection neither one contagious thank goodness. We are still waiting to get a urine sample from Jaci so make sure it isn't a UTI. Andrew feels ok it's not itching like I thought it would it just looks NASTY! Doc said it might even look worse before it gets better. I told him I was taking him to the dr he says no take Jaci I told him again it was him I was taking too and he says No I fine! I guess he is it just doesn't look like it! So can I say we have a really nice Hospital here in Dixie!

Hey Katie,
Thanks for commenting on my blog. Jer drills for oil in Alaska, he was training in Anchorage, and I got to go visit him. Your kids are so cute. I hope life is going good for you guys.

OH my gosh, I'm glad it wasn't itchy, it made me itchy though :)
Looks like the family reunion was a blast, I sure miss those. We should do another BIG one soon. I had to miss the last one. I'm really glad Randy's dad is doing good.
