Germs and boo-boos

This weekend was rough in the Schmidt household. We've all been fighting colds, and those nasty little germs turned into full blown infections for Trevor and Evan. Trevor saw Dr. Blanke on Friday, and is now on antibiotics to kick his nasty cough and yucky nose. The medicine seems to be doing the trick.

Evan has also been snotting around for some time, but we weren't sure if it was cold or allergy related. He also appears to be close to cutting his second bottom tooth. So I attributed his low grade fever on Friday afternoon to teething. Unfortunately, I was wrong, and over the weekend, he developed an ear infection.

But now both boys are on antibiotics, and hopefully all those bad germs will be blasted! I miss my happy baby smiles from Evan!

Monday evening - finally felt good enough to play on the floor.

His fever finally broke this afternoon.

In the midst of all this, it was a beautiful day on Saturday. Trevor enjoyed playing outside for the first time this spring. He was outside for about 3 hours playing in the sand table, riding his tricycle, and running around. Right before we were coming in the house, Trevor tripped near the front door and hit his head on the concrete step. Jeremy and I were both right there, and couldn't stop his fall. Poor thing had a huge knot on his forehead, and a scrapped up hand. He is doing better now, and talks about when his boo-boos will be gone. Here's to hoping the worst is behind us!
