3 Bedroom Bungalow to Let in Crazytown: I'm Not Dead Yet

I'm Not Dead Yet

Ok, so here's the deal. KiKi is sick. Like she has been running a fever of about 104 for the past 3 days sick. First ER trip on Monday netted me a WHOLE BOTTLE OF TYLENOL. Yeah, that did me a lot of good. Finally couldn't stand it last night and took her back in, Found out that she has a "significant" ear infection. Landed her some antibiotics and more fever reducing medications (Tylenol and Motrin). Now I just have to get over my phobia of her Amoxycyllan (allergic to it) manage the fever and make her feel better. ALSO, LaLa woke up screaming last night that her ears hurt, so 1:45pm appointment with the pediatrician for us today. Now, don't you feel a whole bunch more informed on where I have been.

Topics to Soon Be Covered:

Why it is wrong to put corn on pizza

How I read four books in two days

LaLa's strange request to start eating school lunches

LaLa now calls dessert "pudding" now

You go Momma. You're doing a great job of doing all you can to knock this thing out for Kiki.

I love corn on pizza (Thank you British Pizza Huts) and on salad as well. My husband thinks it's disgusting as does most of America obviously. ;)

An ear infection?! Poor little thing! Im glad to hear its been sorted though. More or less. You'll know more after the appt today I guess. God that can be so difficult with the little ones. And worrying.

My daughter's favourite pizza is 'sweetcorn and pepperoni'. Yes, it took me a while to understand, then I tried it and its actually ok!

Thats a lot of reading...

So sorry ear infections are visiting your home; if they last much longer, take the girls to an ear, eye, nose and throat specialist. Seems to me an "infection" needs antibiotics but what do I know?

Corn on pizza is just wrong.

I am glad our Keira is gonna be on the mend, and hope they put LaLa on the fast track if she has an ear infection. My history of ear infections is long, I'll spare you the details, but I will tell you I have a permanent hole in the ear drum. It is pretty interesting when I have a cold and blow my nose snot comes out the nose AND ear....ewwwww. Can't do the nettie pot thing as some people swear by, it would just run out my ear. Now that you are laughing at that image I hope you have a great day. Love you lots,
Auntie A

Aw, poor girls, and poor mommy! =( The ear infections are not fun!
Corn on pizza......well I don't like corn so that's a NO for me. However, around here they put goetta on pizza, which is one of my all time favorite foods, and I still won't try it.

Like all dessert or just pudding, cause what else would you call pudding? Is it some American thing? Like hating corn? Corn hater.

I find fevers (as long as they are not life threatening) quite pleasant - it gives mommy a chance to do things like read books, excuses mommy from the taboo of letting the TV stay on all day, doesn't hold mommy accountable for giving her children jello only, etc. It's those first days AFTER the fever breaks and life must return to normal that things get a little dicey over at Gifts2love! :)

I love your kids names - that's one reason I started thinking of changing mine - yours are so cute. And I've wondered if they were their names. Thanks for the reply.

I remember back to having ear infections as a child. They were very painful!

I don't put anything on pizza that does not digest! LOL

I find it hard to believe that anyone thinks putting corn on pizza is a good idea. That this has to be spelled out for anyone is a complete mystery to me. Mwah! Missed you.

Oh gosh! I hope she gets to feeling better soon. As for corn on pizza, that doesn't happen around here (oklahoma) because that's just not kuntry kosher.
