On Saturday the babies didn't nap with their brothers. Fortunately they did on Sunday. At least we had some time to get things done around the house.
On Saturday morning, two of Erin's co-workers came over to watch the babies so we could take Brayden and Calvin out to do something. We decided to go to the Living Museum. They love looking at all the fish and animals.
After we were done at the Living Museum we planned on going to Chick Fil-A for lunch and to let the boys run around their play area. Unfortunately the Chick Fil-A that was near the museum had an outdoor play area and it was too cold to be outside. So we went ot McDonalds instead. The McDonalds play area is definitely built for older kids (4 and up). I also remembered why we never go to McDonalds. It's dirty. There was one little boy there that was coughing and looked sick. We overheard his mother say that he had a fever and that his prescription should be ready. Who brings a kid to a play area like that with other kids when they are sick? Idiots, that's who.
On Monday, the daycare lady called and said that Aubrey had vomitted. She said that she would keep watching her because she seemed fine otherwise. Aubrey continued to vomit the rest of the week.
Wednesday morning we got a message from the daycare lady that said she was up vomiting and couldn't watch the kids. Unfortunately, she sent a text message and we never saw the message. So we got the kids up at the normal time and Erin took them to daycare. Got them out of the car and then found out that they needed to come back home. I was almost at the gym when Erin called and told me. I got to the gym and worked out for only about twenty minutes. Then I decided to head back home instead of going to work. Erin had already called her mom and asked her to come to the house to help.
It was a good thing because Carter and Aubrey were both vomiting. At least Brayden and Calvin were well behaved. It was not a very fun day. To make things worse I wasn't feeling well.
We kept Carter home on Thursday because he had a fever. The other kids all went to daycare. Erin's mom came over to watch Carter. Everyone seemed to do well, but Carter obviously wasn't feeling well. Aubrey appeared to be doing better.
On Friday we took all four kids to daycare. Early in the morning Erin got a call that Aubrey had vomitted and that Carter was really hot. I couldn't get off work so Erin got them and took them to the doctor. Aubrey has an ear infection in both ears. Carter has some sort of repiratory virus. We got an antibiotic for Aubrey. We got a nebulizer for Carter for his respiratory issues.
I imagine that one of these days we'll have all four of the kids healthy again.
