This weekend has been pretty rough and exhausting. The boys have both been very sick since Friday morning. Carter has had the worst of it though with high fever, headache, vomiting, and a weird rash all over his body. And no both boys have sore throats. I wish the pediatrician was open on the weekend, but I am glad they have 24-phone assistance available. If they are both still sick on Monday I will take them in. We are going to miss church for sure though. We did have to miss the circus today, which we were all looking forward too. I was so disappointed, and they were too, but I promised them we would make it up to them by taking them to Chuckie Cheese or McDonald's play place.
This morning, I got to get away for a couple hours though which was wonderful. My dad picked up both my sisters-in-law and I and treated us to Starbucks and then shoe shopping. It was so much fun! My mom was away for the weekend in Columbus for a jewelry event. Dad said she wanted to be there and she was the one treating us to the shoes. So thank you mom and dad! It was such a pick-me-up and much appreciated!
We were also expecting a visit from Grandma and Grandpa Burkhardt today, but sadly we decided it was obviously best if they waited until later in the week. Keep our boys in your prayers please!

praying for the boys! It sounds like the flu of some sort, hopefully they will get better and you won't have to take them to the Dr's office...and hopefully you don't end up getting sick either!
Thanks for the prayers Erica! Their temps have been not as high and they are eating a lot better, but Carter's rash seems to be getting worse and now they have sore throats. So to the doctor we will go. Another weird thing is that I was looking up Carter's symptoms on the internet, and Scarlet Fever kind of describes everything that has been happening to him. I was thinking that was not around anymore, but it said kids can still get it, but it is much more treatable now I guess. So strange. I just hope I haven't waited too long to take them anywhere. I didn't want to take them to the ER. But now that I think about it, I could have taken them to Redi Med. Oh well. I just hope they sleep tonight!
what kind of shoes did you get?
