Illness Schmillness

I think we are finally in a healthy streak around here after having our fair share of sickness.  First Benjamin had RSV about 2 weeks ago and while I enjoyed the 3 days off staying home with him it was the worst thing to see my little pumpkin so sick.  About 3 days after he was feeling better from RSV he had an ear infection, which luckily with the tubes really isn't all that big of a deal anymore, we just put the drops in and clean the drainage, no fever and minimal pain.  We finally recovered from the ear infection just long enough for Benjamin to get Hand, Foot, and Mouth disease.  It. Was. Horrible.  This is Benjamin's second time to have it but it was much worse this go around.  The first time he only had the sores in his mouth, this time they were in his mouth and on his feet and to say he was miserable is putting it mildly.  He didn't want to do much of anything really for a few days so we played games on the IPad and had lots of cuddles on the couch reading books.  Poor baby.  But, we are finally illness free around here!  And our house is completely disinfected.
