Emily is sick again

Well our little girl is sick again with another virus. Poor little thing has had such a bad run of it. She really was only better for a couple of weeks after suffering from bad post viral fatigue from her last virus. Yesterday I took her to daycare, she was complaining of being cold but I didn't think much of it (Bad Mum!). Anyway a couple of hours later daycare called to say she had a high temp and just wasn't herself. I bought her home and she has a runny tummy, high temp, complaining of having sore arms and being cold. She fell asleep on the couch.
A nasty rash appeared yesterday all over her chest and parts of her arms and some of it wouldn't go away when touched so the doctor asked us to come down. It seems to be just a viral rash and we are very thankful it isn't meningitis. 


Such a turn around the happy little girl that was in the photos at Jackson's birthday party. Jackson is sick too. He has 2 ear infections poor wee thing.
Declan has a cold and a bit of a cough and is just super grizzly. He could be teething. I found his 3rd tooth on Sunday so there could be more coming.

I was up quite a few times last night. 3 times for Emily and about 4 times for Declan. Declan just needed a cuddle and to be put back down. Emily's rash was itchy and sore so I needed to put some cream on her. She can still say the funniest things when she sick. I turned the light on to put her cream on and she said to me "Mummy, in the morning I think you need to brush your hair!" - just love it. Of course I'm going to look like a train wreck at 2am!

On another note. Declan has really mastered the art of crawling backwards but still can't go forwards. Has also mastered the art of getting from sitting to crawling and back again. He is also trying to reach up and pull stuff down. Just wish he wouldn't try and get up on to the wood basket or the TV cabinet.

Well better go do some stuff. Emily is asleep on the couch (again) and Declan is  asleep in his cot! Very rare that I have both kids asleep.
