Everyone is Healthy

Posted by: jzelazny | 0 Comments

And just like that…everyone is feeling better and got a clean bill of health from the doctor at their checkup. All three kids got their ears looked at and their hearts’ listened to (upon Evan’s request to the doctor). Will had to get his chest listened to as he had to use an inhaler for a week due to some congestion in his lungs. Fortunately – everything checked out ok there as well. (The photo was taken at the doctor’s office while we were waiting for the doctor.)

Thankfully during this bout of colds, Amy and I both did not get sick…although we were both exhausted due to the fact someone seemed to wake up in the middle of the night each night. We look forward to some restful nights!

Everyone is Sick

Posted by: jzelazny | 0 Comments

Medicine for all!

We went to the doctor on Friday for Evan – he had a low grade fever for several days and then Friday started to complain about his ear. He has a double ear infection and started his antibiotics on Friday night. We also had the doctor check out Cora’s ears and at that point she was fine.

Today we called first thing to make another appointment, this time for Cora and Will. Both have a horrible cough, are not eating too much, sleeping horribly (we are exhausted), I noticed ear pulling yesterday and Will was wheezing yesterday. Quite a list. We went is morning and Will has one ear infected and bronchiolitis (like bronchitis but in babies) and Cora has a double ear infection (remember her ears were fine on Friday.

Anyway…all three kids are now on antibiotics and Will has to use a nebulizer every four hours. They actually did a breathing treatment right in the office for Will – he did not like it at all. We go back tomorrow to have Will checked again.

It has been a long week here….I am actually happy there a reasons for all the screaming. Please hope for a quick recovery for all!!!!

Cora on Patrol

Posted by: jzelazny | 0 Comments

Monday I got a summons to go upstairs to look into the babys’ room by their babysitter. I walked in and saw Cora happily standing up looking around in her crib. She was super proud of herself for getting up in the bed and even took some side steps while holding onto the rail. Needless to say – the crib mattress has now been lowered so she cannot climb out…for a few more months.

General Quotes

Getting Bigger…

Posted by: jzelazny | 1 Comment

There are some times when Amy and I look at Evan and think “wow – he is getting so big”. He is soon going to be taller than aunt Julie, and then a few months later, taller than me! We have been going through his baby pictures lately to compare his looks with the twins and vice versa. We noticed we have a number of photos of Evan sitting at his chair in the dining room so I decided to take this one so we could do some comparisons over the last few years (and boy has he grown!). I will try to get on the ball and get some more podcasts/videos of him because man does he have a story to tell…

Recently he told Amy:

“Tell Mommy I am getting the hang of being a big boy.”

(Evan’s new thing is to tell someone to tell someone else something.)

He is getting bigger and stronger everyday and I look forward to watching him grow even more!

Helping Out

Posted by: jzelazny | 0 Comments

Ever since the kids have started sitting at the table to eat their Cheerios – Evan has been enjoying helping out (giving them Cheerios, and more Cheerios) and making them laugh. The twins love their big brother and Evan loves them as well. He loves being near them, hugging them, and kissing them. A big thanks to Evan when he reads this for being such a good helper and big brother!

Cute Cora

There are sometimes when the light looks perfect for taking photos – and I happened to catch one of these moments while feeding Cora last Sunday.

Fun Sledding

Posted by: jzelazny | 0 Comments

Evan and I – along with our friends Phil and Ginny – took Evan sledding yesterday at a nearby park. In Illinois – the only hills are either retention ponds or land fills so “natural” sledding hills are not very common. We all had a blast and hope to go again soon.

Will in the Bath

Will loves to take baths. He loves splashing around and of course trying to put all the bath toys in his mouth. Here are a few shots of him having a good time in the bath!
