Thank you all for the sympathetic comments and messages! My baby (his *xanga* name is Pilot) is on an antibiotic for the beginning of an ear infection. He is also congested and has a very sore little throat! He and Lion, our three-year old, took turns waking up and crying throughout last night! I am so tired today, and am also fighting illness. I was taking Nyquil and Dayquil for my throat and headache, and today when I finally woke up, the back of my neck was aching. I am hoping to fight this off before it gets any worse...
Our pediatrician prescribed the five-day antibiotic, Zithromax, without me realizing it! We have not had a very good history with this medicine--I tried it with bronchitis and my oldest tried it with strep and it did not work for either of us. If I had realized it before we left the doctor's office, I would have asked for a regular 10-day antibiotic...I am just praying that it works this time for Pilot!
I wanted to post more about CVS and coupons, but I will have to be brief this time--I printed out these coupons for cereal and bought six boxes for 18 cents each. I also ended up with two free J&J soap buddies and free chicken nuggets~this was at Wal-mart. Then I did about four rounds at CVS and got all of my boys' Easter basket candy, plus a few small toys, for less than $3. At one point, I had $30 in ECB and a $30 gift card...I left with $10 ECB and my entire gift card (I'll use it later!). Go to Money Saving Mom to see how to shop at CVS--I am so hooked!
Well, I am about to give out medicines (some preventative for the ones who aren't sick!) and go back to bed. I am praying for a calm, quiet night--hoping that the two little ones can breathe out of their noses enough to sleep through the night, LOL!

Oh No! There's nothing worse than sick kids. I alway's feel so bad for mini-me when she gets sick. I'm sending some get well wishes your way for you and the kidos. I hope you're all on the mend soon. I hope you have a nice Easter.
