It has been a bit of a week. We went to the Parnells on Saturday and all had a great day. On Sunday Ethan seemed to be teething (very early) and was a bit cranky, and by Monday he was having fevers of 39.6 etc.
We battled for a while and eventually took him to the paed who diagnosed strep and prescribed a course of three antibiotic injections as well as blood and urine tests.
Monday night was not much better and the paed saw him again on Tuesday and said to continue and that the blood results had confirmed the infection.
By yesterday he was much better - no fevers but still cranky and not keen on his bottle, which is very unusual - he normally can't get enough.
Here's hoping tonight is better.
Sometimes Riley can really act. On Friday night she was showing her displeasure at having dinner. Arms crossed glaring at me - all just an act! S sometimes really reminds us of Sydni - same facial expressions and actions.
She has been diagnosed with very low Iron (should be in the 20's, but hers is 6!)
The iron supplement fortunately tastes nice - she calls it her coffee and will quite happily take it as required - she has to take that for six months and then get retested.
Riley also loves to play with Nona - one game they play is "show". All the chairs etc are lined up for the show.
This is breakfast at 6:37 am - she is sharing her food with Teddy. At least breakfast is a bit easier now days.

Super pix. Hope Ethan is now 100% again ... he's such a laid-back fellow.
Riley is a real diva and I'm sure life on the stage beckons.
