Sick Again...

Crapnapper, Jack got strep. At least it wasn't an ear infection...?

After a quick trip to Urgent Care this past Sunday, we got him some meds. With two other little guys and Quatro still cooking, we had to make a valiant effort to keep everyone healthy. Owen was already in NOLA hanging out with Gaga and Pops and I was headed there so Jen could help her cousin Katie with a party at our house. I left Parker down there and came back with the Jack-ster so he could get better without infecting anyone. Jack was fine after a day or so of antibiotics, he really only had some fussiness and wasn't the best eater, but no need to tempt fate and get all the guys (and Momma sick).

It was strange to go back to only one kid. It was quiet in our house. REALLY quiet. We were able to spend some quality one on one time with Jack and it was pretty nice. We definitely missed the other guys and were wondering if Jack would act any different without Parker around and vice versa. Here is what we concluded...we don’t think they even noticed!! I’m sure they did, but neither Jack nor Park had any separation issues without their bro. They have always been more laid back and independent little guys than Owen ever was, I am not sure if that boils down to a second/third child issue or a twin thing. Either way, it is nice to know they aren't dependent on each other.

After all the boys were back together, Owen was hilarious, he was making Jack and Parker laugh histerically. You can tell he really enjoys having his brothers around and he misses them when they aren't there. Now that everyone is back together, the noise in our house has returned to its previous "little boy screaching" levels. Ahh, welcome back guys.
