'Tis the Season for Ear and Sinus Infections

Bah humbug! This has not been a good week so far in terms of health for the Clayton household. Heath and I both have sinus infections and are on antibiotics. I also have a wicked ear infection, which has left me with very little hearing in my right ear and continuous pain. Today, I gave in and went back to the doc whom put me on prednisone - a strong oral steroid - to help clear it up. A bit of a downer to be this sick so close to Christmas, but I am optimistic that both Heath and I will feel better by Christmas Eve.

This is a big Christmas for us since it is the first Christmas where the boys will sort of get it. Santa will come and deliver trikes, blocks, logs, puppets and an assortment of other goodies. The boys will also get toy chests (a gift from their grandparents) so they each can begin their own sense of self AND cleaning up their own mess. This should be interesting.

On a very positive note, Carita and Marshall arrived last night. They are wonderful and we're soooo happy they are here as are our boys. Let's hope and pray that the rest of the Christmas season will be a healthy one for us and that I can hear by Thursday. Tas and Chance continue to say Ho, Ho, Ho every time they see a Santa or Christmas lights. This has me wondering what we will do after Christmas.
