Sick x4

Yesterday, I took Miles and Oliver to the pediatrician. I’d already taken Linus on Tuesday. Honestly, we should get a frequent visitor’s card, with discounts or something. All three have ear infections, but since Miles just finished his antibiotics ONE WEEK AGO for a different EI (other ear), we had to put him on a different medication. So not only do I have to remember to give them antibiotics every day, I have to make sure Miles gets the different one. And he gets it twice a day, and the other two only get it once a day. Too complicated.

And I’m not feeling great either. I think it had a lot to do with the fact that I’m just worn out this week. Monday night, I was up late cooking (baking, really. I made pizza dough and chocolate chip cookie dough. So not even baking, rather mixing.) Tuesday night, I had friends over for dinner for, yes, pizza and chocolate chip cookies. Wednesday night was my triplet mom’s group meeting. So by yesterday, I was just beat. And since I had to take two babies to the ped, I decided to take the day off so I could recover.

(Why is it that every time I go to say or write “pediatrician”, the word “veterinarian” comes into my head instead? Hmmm.)

Feeling somewhat better today, thank goodness. Tonight, after the boys go to sleep, I’m going to a friend’s house to watch her little girl while she and her husband go to a work event. I’m looking forward to the peace and quiet. Not that evenings after the boys go to bed aren’t peaceful or quiet, but at least at her house, I won’t be stressing about the dishes or laundry. I can work on a couple of projects I’m doing for the boys’ birthday.

WHICH IS IN LESS THAN TWO WEEKS. Aaagh!

On the 25th, I’ll start recapping the lead-up to the boys’ birth. Mostly for myself, so I can reminisce about it all. Sigh…one year…

    Aw, I hope the little guys feel better soon! I had to do the whole one bottle of medicine for one boy and a different for the other two. Such a pain! Thank goodness for Target’s color coded rings 🙂

    I’m warning you…The first b-day was WAY more emotional for me than I thought it would be. I’ve been so busy planning and taking care of them that I hadn’t stopped to think about the significance of this last year. But, most of all I look back to how scared I was a year ago, and how amazing the past year has turned out to be. I just keep thinking how lucky we are. O.K., I’ll also admit to thinking how overworked we are as well. I hope everyone gets to feeling better (especially you)!
