On The Mend

Holy cow, the month of January has been total craziness at the Purcell household.  The boys have been really sick and on antibiotics for almost the whole month it feels like.  Last time I posted, Carter was diagnosed with Croup.

Since then, Carter has been diagnosed with a double ear infection and RSV.  Nolan has been diagnosed with RSV and a single ear infection.  Nolan has also been battling ugly styes on his left eye.  My poor boys!  Luckily, neither one has had the flu or strep. Everyone is finishing up their antibiotics and finally feeling/acting like themselves again.

I was starting to become worried when the boys began passing germs back and forth to each other, but we did the best we could at keeping them separate.  This weekend was the first weekend in the month of January, we actually enjoyed hanging out and relaxing around the house.  I snapped a few pictures over the past few weeks, so I will add them all in this one post.

Carter was supposed to have his 4 month check-up, but we had to reschedule due to his ear infection.  Nolan was supposed to have his 2 year check-up, but we had to reschedule due to his RSV.  In February, the boys will have their check-ups and we will know their weight and height.

 Nolan took to taking his naps in his closet for some reason....

Both boys wanted their mama non-stop.  In this pic Nolan and Carter were starting to feel a little better.

 Most likely watching Toy Story or Madagascar

I've probably watched Toy Story 3 and Madagascar 1,2, and 3 a total of 15 times each these past few weeks.  Those are the only movies Nolan has wanted to watch.  Oh well, at least they contain some adult humor.  Bill and I now walk around the house quoting Madagascar! "I like 'em big, I like 'em round!!" lol

Nolan is still battling his stye, but all in all the boys are feeling great.  Smiling and laughing!!!

Thanks for the thoughts and prayers.  We greatly appreciate them!
