Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad week

Okay so this week has been no fun at all. Three of my kids had/have (we are still on antibiotic) strep. Jacob did not have school on Monday and stayed home on Tuesday as did Emma. Seth also has an ear infection and Tuesday his ear started draining fluid. I called the doctor and she called in a prescription for ear drops and wanted to see him Wednesday. So, Wednesday morning we headed back to the doctor. He has a small hole in his ear drum and that is why the fluid was draining. It will heal itself and there should not be any permanent damage from the hole. Wednesday night, my wonderful husband called out of work so that he could stay home and help me. I am very glad that he did because at midnight we were awakened by Seth crying. He had "poop soup", as we call it. So, into the bath tub he goes, while Sean takes the sheets off his bed and into the washer. Then again at 6am we were doing the same thing. Thursday night as we were getting medicine for the kids one of the glass bottles of medicine was dropped and cracked. There goes the $30 antibiotic all over the floor. Why would the put medicine for a kid in a glass bottle. I need to call the doctor Monday to see if she can call in another prescription so that we have enough. So we have had many sleepless nights this week, with sick kids and a 2 month old and spent about $200 in doctor visits and medicine. Next week can only be better, right.
