Another week gone!

This has been a crazy week. First, sully got a sore throat and low grade fever last week. He got a trip to the doctor and a negative strep test. 
Then Saturday griff for the same thing but with high fever. So he got his strep test at  urgent care. Still negative. Apparently just a bad virus but man, his throat looked awful! 
I went to lunch with griffin the other day. He did great eating lunch there and found a few things he liked, but today when I tried to get him to eat lunch at school we had a big break down. We obviously haven't gotten there yet. 
We are settling into our new routine. It's nice that the kids actually do have time to PLAY after school this year, however, when the kids are tired and grouchy, it's not so fun! 
Weds we had a birthday party for brooks. The kids had a great time playing and as you can see the bride came. 
Thursday morning we woke up and Mira told me she couldn't hear at all out of her bad ear. For some reason I decided to look inside it before putting the drops in. I could see something big inside there! I tried to get it out with some tweezers but didnt get anywhere and she was hysterical. I got griff on the bus and we headed to the er. It turned out good because after determining it was a big pus ball, er wouldn't touch it. So they paged ENT and we waited. 
Not for too long but it seemed like it! ENT came and decided we needed to go to clinic where they had more tools. 
So she got held down by 3 people and they tried several things. Pulling it out was not working, so eventually she used a sucker to suck it out. That pus ball was HUGE. 
She sucked out a bunch more gross pussy stuff and sent us on our way. We already had an appointment this coming Tuesday to plan her next ear tube surgery because she continues to have fluid build up and hearing loss. Fun fun! She says her ear is fine now but today she is complaining about her throat. Great. We will see!
