The Crud

McGwire came home from school last Thursday acting all mopey and complaining of "strep throat". I am not sure why he he thinks he has strep everytime he's sick, but I digress...
Friday I kept him home from school since he just didn't act right and sure enough he started running a temp later that morning. I went ahead and took him to the doctor since he was complaining of a sore throat but his strep test came back negative. He did, however, have pink eye, (thanks you, Picky....... and Saige!) so we got a rx for eye drops. Poor thing was sick all weekend with the fever and a couple of episodes of vomiting (one of which happened as he was getting his Arrow of Light award at scouts, but that's a different blog post). I kept him home again yesterday since he still had a temp late Sunday afternoon but he was back in full force all day yesterday, pestering me and Lilah!!
He just got home from school a few moments ago with a reminder that his school project is due tomorrow.
TOMORROW!?!?!?! What the....???
Serenity now!!!!!
How we are going to fit that in between regular homework and a hockey tournament game tonight is beyond me!!!

Here's few pictures of Mac sporting his new hockey suspenders!






McG may say he's #2 (Yes, I know that's a peace sign)...





...but his sister thinks he's #1.

Yes, Lilah, his grandparents think he's #1 too. I just love him in his hockey outfit. I've never seen suspenders tho. They're sharp. Good luck tonite my man. I see one of the pics is by the toliet in case he throws up again, huh?

How cute! I mean, not the being sick part, but the photos are so cute. Those suspenders look huge!
