let it snow...well ice

Well we got our second "snow" of the year. It is more like ice. I think we would be enjoying it more if we didn't have a sick baby. Colton has been sick for the past 3 days and the doctor doesn't know why. He's been running a fever and was just sleeping WAY too much. So Thursday I took him to the dr and she took pricked his finger and swabbed for the flu and that came back negative (huge relief) but his CBC came back very high meaning he has an infection. His ears looked like an infection could be brewing but not infected yet. The dr was concerned about possibly pnuemonia but he hasn't been coughing that much. So the dr decided to give him a rocephin shot and for us to come back the next day. Well Friday comes and that's the day that all the bad weather started. We headed doen to the dr and his CBC was about the same as the day before so my poor baby got another rocephin shot and some amoxicillan to start today. I hate not knowing what is wrong. He's still got fever but I know he feels better. He was started to get dehydrated on Thursday/Friday. He wouldn't nurse at all and wouldn't eat his food, just drink apple juice with his sippy cup. The good news is, we've started to wean. I figured this would be a good time. As of Saturday afternoon, he still has fever and still is congested. I know he's feeling better cuz he's playing with his sister. He's been so sweet while he's been sick, loving on me and giving lots of kisses. Anyways....Friday night the winter storm hit us and took our power out for about 6 hours, mostly through the night but still we were worried about getting too cold but we survived. Several tree branches didn't though, one even fell on the roof. We didn't have any damage just a mess to clean up, Thank God. One of our good friends came over this morning to help Russ clear everything up and they end let me play with the chain saw (well cut with it lol). enjoy the pictures and I hope yall managed to stay warm.
