The plan was that Dusty would take Brogan to the doctor today and I would stay home, work and keep Audrey occupied. We all know about plans!
After puttinng the snow chains on our trailblazer, Dusty was frozen and wet. We all got into the car, since we were there and frozen too, except for the baby who was hot and sweaty in the car! Daddy - so worried about him had the heat on full blast. Ok, so after I unzipped Brogan's jacket, and dried his hair, we all got in the car and went to town. We got to Brogan's doctor appointment 40 minutes late, but not bad. They still got us in ok. While Dusty waited, Audrey and I walked 2 blocks to the QFC to get her something to eat. She was "STARVING"! She's also a mega drama queen. We've decided that visits to Brogan's doctor should be accompanied by survival foods because no matter what it always seems to take 2 hours.
Brogan was just supposed to get his shots today, but his breathing still hadn't cleared up from the last time we took him to the doctor, so we made sure they checked him out for that. A little sinus infection, plus his chest is tightening up (spasms) similar to asthma, so besides the inhaler we have been using more frequently this week, they prescribed a nebulizer and amoxicillian to kick this crud! Thank goodness. It's been a very fretful few weeks 'waiting' for him to get over it himself. A very sleepless few weeks too. I know doctors are very reluctant to prescribe antibiotics at the drop of a hat these days, but he really needed it.
Today was very challenging, bad snow, crazy drivers, sick baby and a rambunctious 6 year old! Dusty and I are just worn out, but thankful that we got through it together.
