The Strep Triplets


That's right, strep, again. This is the 3rd time that my boys have had strep in the last 5 months. Does that seem excessive to anyone else? The Doctor told me that if they get strep 6 times in a year, that they might have to have their tonsils removed. Part of me loves that idea, and the other part of me hates it. I would love to not have to keep dealing with this issue over and over again, but I also think that your tonsils are a slightly important part of your body, and I'm not too thrilled at the idea of them not being there. I also HATE the idea of any of my boys suffering in any way, shape or form, so I wouldn't be too thrilled with that part of it either. Luckily, they got started on antibiotics yesterday, so they're doing much better today. Aidan came down with it while we were camping this weekend for Dan's family reunion (which I still need to blog, but haven't because of the sickies), then Mason and Ethan came down with it the day after we came back. It's been an exhausting week!!!

Happy now Val? What are you the blog police????

So sorry about the sick boys. Strep is the worst too. That was a common sickness for my sis and I growing up. Hope they feel better soon!

Yes I AM happy! Thank you very much!

Sorry the boys have been sick. We dealt with strep a lot this winter and it sucked. Hope everyone feels better soon!
