.fevers and burns.

Yesterday was just one of those days..the kind where you wish you could have
just stayed in bed and vegged. However, it started out crap. I knew that it was
going to be a crappy day because we had been up with Lucas all night. He had a
raging fever and we had to put him in the tub to bring it down. He wanted to lay
in our bed next to me all night so I felt like I was snuggled up with a heating
pad. He was sick allllll day, his fever went up and down.
After Brenna got home from school she went to make Lucas some [in his words]
macernoni and cheese. While she waited for the water to boil, she played Fuzion
Frenzy with Lana. I called her into the kitchen to tell her that the pasta needed
to be drained so she went to to drain it and the pot flipped over and all the boiling
water poured all over the tops of her hands.
Oh my gosh, she screamed for ages. I felt SO bad for her. They burned so bad.
A ran and got some Aloe Vera and she basically sat there soaking her hands in that
stuff.
Right after that, I ended up having to take Lucas to the ER because his fever got
too high way too fast. We sat in here for ages...well it felt like it anyways.
Lucas kept saying, "mama, no Dr ok"? "all done, lets go get Bolana[which is what he
calls Alana]"
Finally after he was checked out we were told that he just had a fever for no reason,
that he could possibly be ready to break out with a bad runny nose and a cough or something. His ears were clear, his throat was a little red but that was it.
So we went home with instructions to alternate Motrin and Tylenol thru the night.
After we got home, Nico made some super yum dinner..then Lana, Brenna and I went down the mountain to get Alyssa...got home late and I went right to bed...after listening to Corbin do his reading interpretation of Twilight. That went on for quite awhile.
Lucas is fine. He didnt have a fever at all during the night and woke up jolly little Luca.
No pictures were taken yesterday...so I've dug into the archives...use your imagination :)

peace xo
