Well, first off, i think our children are against vacations. I am sure you all remember when Forest and I went to Vegas in March and the day we left Owen ended up in the ER with pneumonia. Well, the day we left for this last little vacation, Miss Brielle ended up in urgent care with severe pink eye in BOTH eyes. THEN, not even half way to Hermiston on our way to The Dalles, Owen starts screaming and crying about needing to go to the doctor because his ear hurt. He loves going to the doc, so we thought maybe it was just an act of jealousy because Brielle got to go to the doc and not him. After him screaming the entire drive to The Dalles, and seeing that after we got there, his eye was also getting nasty looking, we headed to the ER after dropping Brielle at my grandparents house. Sure freakin enough, he had a terrible ear infection and pink eye. To make the story even better, the doc asked what eye drops Brielle was on, so he could prescribe the same for Owen. I told him and he looked at me like I was crazy and said are you serious? Uhhhmmm, YES! Come to find out, that drops that Brielle were on are not recommended for use in children AT ALL. They have a steroid in theme and it can cause serious permanent damage and even blindness. NICE!!!! So, he gave me enough drops for Owen to share with Brielle also. Good grief, I am so not looking forward to that bill. UGH!
After getting that all taken care of on Sunday, we laid low at grandma and grandpas for the week and then hit the zoo on Thursday. It was very hot, but we had a great time. Saturday and Sunday we went racing in Woodburn and had alot of fun. We are all very thankful and happy to be home. Now if I could get Brielles poor little nose to clear up. I am praying its just teething and allergies that's causing it.
