sick.... but worse

So we went to the doctors twice within about 16 hours. Nate got pretty bad yesterday... he was breathing very heavy and he didn't even want to play... which if you know Nate.... that's not like him. He would just curl up in the play area with a monkey or a boppy and just layed there. So Mommy knew something was up, so we both got checked up and Nate has some sort of virus and is on a breathing machine every few hours to help clear out his lungs. We also are on a new antibotic to help finish clearing up our ear infections.

Today we went back in to get checked-up again and to see if Nate was improving. He apparently sounds much better. The nurse was checking us with the fun cold thing she puts to our chest and the other part she puts in her ears... she is so silly! So Nate is going to be on the breathing machine tomorrow only if he needs it and we may have to go back on Friday if we still aren't feeling well. Hopefully Alex won't get worse!

Oh and yesterday was November 4th... you know what that means!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We turned 19 months old!!!! Oh and we got a new president. We wish we were a little more older so we can remember this very exciting and historical election. We followed it very closely all year long, especially since Grandad's 2nd favorite thing (after playing with us) is politics. Grandad's a little sad though because he liked the older guy with the grey hair, that and Nana says he is sick too :( We hope you feel better soon Grandad!!!! We got to go with Mommy to the polls and we ran into Mr. Ellis and his wife and kids (Mr. Ellis is the band director at the high school Mommy coaches guard at). We chatted with them for a bit and then breezed through. There were no lines and we were in and out within 5 minutes. We saw who Mommy voted for and the amendments she voted for... and while it is inappropriate to discuss that because it's no one's business..... well let's just say Mommy was very happy when we woke her up at 1am (we all went to bed early!) and she saw on the news who won.

So minus being sick and going to the doctors... yesterday was a fun day. Today everyone was feeling better. Nate wasn't 100% running around. But he did actually play with toys and walk around the play area. He even smiled and laughed. Alex is about the same. Hopefully tomorrow everyone will be much better... at least for Mommy's sake!

Oh and in case anyone was wondering!
