We had Preschool and Come Play With Me this morning. The kid's both had fun! Blake was pretty pumped about the bird house he made in preschool, which he hung off our lilac tree in the front yard!! Emerson seems to be a hit amongst the nannies at Come Play With Me ... lol! They all play with her and talk to her so much! It's cute and funny how she seems automatically taken with them ... typically she doesn't take to strangers quickly or at all. I think if we ever need childcare again we should look for a Filipino lady :)
Cal's been pretty sick the last few days. He had to go to a meeting on the west end early this morning and then back to work for a few hours, but came home at lunch time today. The plan was for him to get some sleep, but that didn't happen! We decided to take the kids to the Dr. after Em's nap. I called our pediatrician, but he was over booked today, so we took them to a walk-in clinic near our house that we've gone to before. Dr. Mitha is pretty good, someone I trust! We find walk-in clinic and medi-centre Dr.'s to be a little sketchy at times!!! Kind of pill pushers, if you know what I mean! Anyways, turns out Emerson has an ear infection in her right ear and Blake has a throat infection and a possible bladder infection. The antibiotic he's on will take care of both, so we didn't do further lab tests to determine whether or not he has a bladder infection, but Dr. Mitha said it is very likely. He's been refusing to go potty and then all of a sudden having a huge accident, which is not like him at all! He's been potty trained for almost a year and has had small "dribbles", but nothing like this. He gets mad when we ask him if it hurts to pee, so who knows if it does or not. Hopefully within a few days Blake and Em will be feeling much better!! It's been a frustrating week for me ... I guess partly due to the kids being under the weather and more grouchy then usual and partly due to me feeling like crap! I'm not handling the whining and crying very well ... Feel sorry for the kids at times and in hindsight :S
Have a great Friday tomorrow :)

Hang in there Tracy!!! Sick kids aren't fun but remember as difficult as it is for you, think how hard it is for them to to express how they are feeling. Go and enjoy your mommy massages and treat yourself to more Tracy days! I hope that you,Cal and the kids are both feeling 100% better soon!!
Thanks Tina :) I know they feel terrible :( And I've just been "off" these past few weeks!! I think it's the whole pregnancy hormones / cold ... the massage and "me" times definately help!! xoxo
