and the winner is...

...amoxacillin. strep infection.

megan has a fever, sore throat and a cough that won't quit. now, the big challenge is to make sure that she gets better without anyone else getting sick. it is sad, because i am even leary to cuddle with her when she feels like crap-i guess this is when you are torn trying to be the best parent you can be at the same time being the best caregiver you can be...and i am NOT liking it a bit. pray for us.

the bug problem is being resolved...unfortunately there is no instant fix...but things are slowing down. for awhile it was a challange to go anywhere in the house and not see three or four at a time. now, you almost have to look for one-and boy, do the girls look. every now and then you hear a flip flop attacking the floor or the wall. it has been a long couple of nights.

well, meg just took a popsicle back to her room, i may do the same thing-that looked good. hoping for a quiet hour or so to catch a couple winks. between kelsey's lingering cough and megan's new cough i feel that i am in a TB asylum. it is a wonder that tim hasn't moved to a hotel himself. pray for his protection from all these bacterial and viral bugs that are flying around in this house-the boy in a bubble is pretty "unrealistic" in real life with three teenage kids in the house.

tim is doing well-under some stress i think because we are dealing with some other issues outside of his safe world. i am not sure what we are going to do now that the beavers have won...no more college world series until next year. i guess there is still some soccer left to watch.

well, thanks for checking in.

i imagine someday we will enjoy sitting back and reading all these blog posts and it will seem like a dream...or a nightmare...or something from some bizarre fiction novel. but, until then-ONE DAY AT A TIME>

tim and tammy

ps...to sara and bernie-she is beautiful. you done good!!!
