More Antibiotics

I took Evan and Noah to the doctor today. Both have had runny noses and coughs since last week. We were worried about Noah since he had pneumonia before and we wanted to make sure he didn’t have it again. With Evan, we wanted to make sure he didn’t have a sinus infection again.

We had to wait a while to see the doctor, but both Evan and Noah did well in the waiting room. First they weighed the boys. Evan weighed 35 lbs and Noah was 23 lbs. The doctor examined Noah first. She listed to his chest and thought it sounded fine. Then she looked in his ear and right away said, “He’s got an ear infection.” She checked Noah’s other ear and that ear also had an infection. So, Noah has a double ear infection. She said she didn’t want to do a chest x-ray unless absolutely necessary, but she doubted he had pneumonia. She said if he did happen to have a light case the antibiotics from the ear infection would clear it up.

Then, the doctor checked Evan. She believes he still has the same sinus infection that never went away from before. So, Evan is on antibiotics too.

I’m so ready for us all to be healthy again. We have been sick since the end of October. It has been one thing after another.

We didn’t do much today besides the trip to the doctor.

Evan and Noah took good naps and woke up right before Morry got home. For dinner we had ham and also chicken noodle soup. We got a pre-cooked and sliced ham from HEB that just needed to be heat up. Evan ate a ton. He loved it.

For Hanukkah tonight Evan got his Toy Story present from us. We gave him Toy Story figures and a Toy Story shirt. Noah got a piano like toy from us. Evan and Noah liked their gifts from Mike and Jen. Evan got a soft Wall-E doll and Noah got a soft Cars doll.
