I'm still a little dazed from all the 'fun' of today.  My eldest again has an inexplicable fever; the doctor thinks it's another UTI, which is practically unheard of in little kids, so yay, I get to make an appointment for her to get an ultrasound to check her kidneys.  Seriously anxious here.  Right now we've got her on antibiotics for the UTI, cranberry concentrate pills and drinking as much water as we can force down her little throat.  

My youngest is overly cranky, way beyond normal, and there are semi-dark circles under her eyes; the doctors suspects allergies.  yay.  My eldest is allergic to wheat and dairy (her paternal grandmother and great grandmother have Celiac's disease & milk sensitivity, so I know where it comes from), and my youngest has problems with cheese, so we get to make an appointment with a naturopath to figure out what else she's allergic to.  I'm wondering about honey.  She's two, which means it shouldn't be a problem, but you never know...

So I got to spend my day dealing with one miserably sick kid, and one miserably mad toddler.  What a day.

Fortunately, Bob (who *isn't* balding, thanks ever so much) and I went out into the pouring rain and had a nice dinner out at our fav greek restaurant, then had friends over to watch a movie (they'd never seen Hudson Hawk, can you believe it???).

that's me.  My eldest had a fever all last week, but was feeling well enough today to go to school.  I got a call shortly after dropping her off from the doctor; she has strep throat and a UTI!!!  poor baby.  now she gets to have a week of antibiotics, and might have to stay home for it.  I don't know, is strep contagious?  Must look that one up.
