Sick Girls

Both girls are sick. It is very sad for them (and for mom and dad!) Ry and Emma both have double ear infections and sinus infections. Poor, poor girls! Until last night we had not gotten much sleep over here. They are both on antibiotics now and starting to feel better. There has been a lot of green snot over here. I think Ryan was coming down with this last week and unfortunately we waited to take her in and had to wait out a 3 day weekend. In that time she got worse and she gave it to her sister. Poor Emma. This is her first time to be sick. Hope this isn't the beginning of a bunch of ear infections. She has been a real trooper. She is still small enough that it is easy to suction her nose and get her medicine down her. Now Ryan, is a different story. We have to "burrito" wrap her in a towel (envision straight jacket) and then hold her cheeks and blow in her face to keep her from spitting and get her to swallow her medicine. It feels like torture. I dread every dose! This is the first time Ryan has had to take antibiotics since her tubes got placed over 5 months ago. That is pretty good. I am so glad they are both on the mend and that I am sleeping again. Since being sick is sad, and it is Emma's first time, here are some cute Emma pictures to make us all smile.

She is a snuggly baby. I love it!
Loving on Sebastian.

Snoozing with her hiney in the air.

The famous Ivie baby lip!

All this girl wants to do is stand!

Ryan has to eat her breakfast up here now

or somebody sneaks bites.

Sorry Pea Pie, you are not quite big enough for whole blueberries and Eggo waffles!
