I am getting tired of seeing eyebrows when I click on the blog. I bet anyone who has randomly discovered our blog in the last few days thinks we're nuts. Some days that may be the case.
I am at home today. Trent is sick. He has strep and an ear infection. The ear infection did not surprise me. He's had a cold for the past few days, and he coughed all night last night. When he tugged on his ear this morning, I immediately thought "ear infection."
The strep throat, however, blew my mind. Strep throat, really? He has taken every ounce of every bottle and eaten every bite of every jar of food. He had a low-grade fever when his nose was running, but it went away Monday. He hasn't thrown up one time. So... unless a snotty nose or a cough is indicative of strep, I'm not a bad mom:)
He weighed 22.9 pounds this morning, which disappointed Mike. I don't think my poor husband realized that children don't grow at alarming rates their entire lives. Apparently a pound and six ounces wasn't enough growth in a month for daddy, HA!
I'm already imagining a little tickle in my throat. Maybe my orange mango banana vivanno smoothie from Starbucks helped. Yes, I actually tried a new Starbucks drink, and I liked it. I figure it's a good option for the rare mornings that I actually have time to drink a cup of coffee at home. It's also a great snack.
I hope everyone has a great Labor Day weekend. We're heading to the lake with the Carters {after Trent's 48 hours of lock-down is over.}
And since a post without a picture really isn't a post...

Don't feel bad... Tripp had strep last week and I had no clue! Of course AFTER his diagnosis he told me that his MOUTH hurt :) Hope Trent feels better soon!
Sorry Trent has the yuckies, but what happy boy who doesn't show any symptoms! And he looks like he's gotten a lot more hair recently based on the photo - love it!
Poor thing.
But you know- his expression goes PERFECTLY with your post title!
"Really?" I can hear him thinking it just like you say it!!!
