Well, this has been quite the interesting week. Let's recap:

Monday morning: found out that previously genderless baby #2 is shaping up to be boy #2.

Monday evening: Spent the evening at the emergency room, where we found out that boy #1, who is now 2 ½, has developed a case of pneumonia, mixed with a dose of strep throat, with a little ear infection on the side for good measure.

Monday night: slept a little.

Tuesday: called in sick to take care of boy #1. Yay, no work!

Wednesday: everyone is feeling better, had to go back to work. Yuck!

Thursday: ate leftovers for lunch and Whataburger for Thanksgiving dinner. We canceled plans to visit family in Austin to avoid exposing them to various illnesses. This is not as tragic as it seems. I think I would really prefer eating Whataburger and lounging around all day than driving all day and doing the typical Thanksgiving thing.

Thursday night: wrote blog post. Um, I guess that brings us to the present. The boy is doing fine now. Does this seem like a modern miracle to anyone else? Monday evening he has a 105 degree fever and is diagnosed with three fairly serious medical conditions, and three days later he is bouncing off the walls, eating three bowls of oatmeal like he does every night, and demanding 300 stories, all of which are about a train...named James...who has a red balloon?

Friday morning: still writing blog. Need to go to sleep. Good night.
