Haylee woke up today and was feeling a lot better, although she was still running a low grade fever. Because it was Friday and I am always afraid we won't be able to see our pediatrician if we need to I made an appointment...just in case. It was a good thing we did too because....it was STREP! I didn't know that throwing-up can be a sign of strep, but it can. I always bribe my kids to get the penicillen shot instead of the prescription, because it works faster. I give them $5 to spend at the toy store, it is also cheaper then buying the prescription because my insurance pays 100% of the shot. Haylee was hoping just a little bit that she could get the shot because she has never gotten paid for a shot before (it's her 1st time with strep) and she really wanted a new toy. But, when she found out it was strep and she WAS going to get a shot she flipped out! It was a little difficult (ok really difficult) to get her to lay down and expose her bum:( I felt like a horrible mom forcing her to do that, but I really needed her to so she will feel better faster, and she can go play with her cousins on Sunday. It only hurt for a minute and then she was psyched (yes psyched) to go to Walmart's Toy Store. Haylee and her sore Bum....
But YEAH she got a new Barbie! Could being sick get any better?

After the toy store we headed to the Insta Care ( I know she's not the only one with a problem). I took 3 kids to the Insta Care so I could be seen. It wasn't as bad as I would have guessed although I was afraid someone was going to catch something much worse then what we already had. I had to go for a UTI (too much info?) It was hilarious to watch Ethan's face as I told the Dr. my symptons. After the Dr. left Ethan asked if boys could get "boy problems" like girls get "girl problems". I told him they can have "boy problems" but they are nothing like "girl problems" and he could ask his dad what those problems might be:) I think he was a little scared to think of what issues he could one day have to face. Now that we are medicated I hope tomorrow will be better:)
