Yuck...

Last week was rough...Patrick and I both got the flu and the babies finished off the week with a stomach bug. In 7 days we had:

Ear Infections... 6
Pedi Appointments... 3
Urgent Care Visits... 1
Flu... 2
Stomach Bug... 3
(Too many diaper changes to count!)
Prescriptions... 11
And over $500 in copays (doctors and prescriptions) alone! Luckily since our pediatrician had just seen the babies a few days before, she called in their 3 prescriptions for Tamiflu and didn't require that we bring them in. Patrick's doctor (reluctantly) did the same, otherwise we would have had to add an addition $120 for 4 more doctor visits!

Thankfully this weekend went much better and we're on our way to a healthy week!

    I know you've been super busy with the move and all but I was curious if Missy Moo's has any new creations coming out?

    Wishing you all good health and rest!
