Update....

Currently all is well at the Hebert household!! We had a little sick spell last weekend with Brooks. It was actually two weeks from the day that we had all gotten well...which is how it has been for the last SIX MONTHS!!!! It is just becoming a part of our lives....anways, he ran fever all weekend and wound up with a runny nose, cough, and just feeling cruddy but he got two days at home from daycare and has recovered almost completely back to my happy little man!!

Cade never got the little cold that Brooks had but we did make a trip to the ENT on Tuesday and have decided to get ear tubes put in his ears and get his adenoids removed in hopes that this will help him to not get sick as often. According to the ENT the adenoids can hold bacteria which can contribute to all the ear and sinus infections/colds that they get at this age. The surgery will take place next Friday morning (on my birthday) so we will appreciate everyone's prayers for that, you all know I will be a nervous mama that morning!!!

Cade liked this chair at the ENT office......he was such a good patient, he sat very still and clapped and said "yay" after the doctor looked in his ears....such a cutie!! Brooks on the other hand SCREAMED bloody murder when the doctor looked in his ears...poor buddy...he is a little dramatic!!

Josh pulled his back out some how last weekend but he is also doing much better. He says it is still stiff but he is recovering nicely thanks to those muscle relaxers and pain killers!! Last weekend we were at the joint adult/kids after hours clinic for his back and Brooks fever!! I tell you what, I almost feel like I could be a doctor with as much experience with sick kids I have had over the last 6 months especially!!

Other than trying to get well we overall had a good week. Mardi Gras was pretty uneventful at our house!! I got the day off since the kids didn't have daycare and we just hung around the house, got some much need R&R, ate lots of yummy king cake, went to the ENT and took a trip to the pond to feed the ducks, swords in hand....it is a good thing no one tried to mess with us :)



It is predicted to be a pretty gross weekend but hopefully Sunday we can make it to church for the first time in 5 weeks due to sick kids and other events happening!! Hopefully we all stay well this weekend, we are hoping to have a fun, relaxing weekend at home!!!
