In other news...

Aside from the job interview we have had a very interesting weekend. Skyler has not returned to school this week and I'm not sure if he is even going to make it there tomorrow. He started running a low fever with a persistent cough Friday evening. Over the weekend it did not seem to get any better but certainly no worse, until Sunday evening. He went to bed with a minor toothache but he did not really comment on it till the next day. We made an appointment with the doctor but he started complaining about his tooth and couldn't seem to function so we called the Dentist and managed to get in at about 11 AM. They extracted one of his baby teeth because it was being impacted by his growing permanent teeth. Despite the success of the "surgery" he complained of pain in his teeth the rest of the day. (We did get to the doctor and he has strep and we did get medication for that) We returned to the dentist today and was told that they should have pulled additional teeth but now his gums are so swollen that they can't do anything right now. We checked the medication that the doctor gave and it is nearly the same thing that the dentist would have given us so he has nothing new to take but we are having to put up with Skyler crying every few hours when his pain medication wears off. Skyler, Amy and I haven't had a good nights sleep for several nights now...FUN FUN FUN!
On a good note the other two kids have not caught anything from Skyler. On a bad note...Amy has the same thing (minus the dental work)!
