Longest Week Ever

Last post ended with Owen and myself home Monday and Tuesday with him being sick with a throat infection. Tuesday evening everything was looking good, so Wednesday was back school.

Tuesday night helping Dad

Putting together a bench for the front entrance

Finished and looking good
Wednesday morning I dropped Owen off at school and I went to work. Well, that lasted a couple of hours as school called and Owen had pink eye. Luckily I work so close and within two hours of the call we were home from the Dr's with drops and cuddling on the sofa.
Thursday we stayed home and by Friday everything was looking great. Back to school and work for Friday.

Saturday we went skating. It started off good
but went downhill pretty quick.

You can't tell from this pic but by the afternoon Owen
was covered in hives and quite uncomfortable. 
Saturday night we were up the entire night with him itching and crying in pain. Sunday I took him to the walk in clinic, he was covering head to toe in hives that kept coming and going. We had no idea what was going on but our little guy was suffering from something.
Speaking with the Dr we figured it was the antibiotics he was on for the throat infection from last week. He prescribed some steroids to bring down the reaction and an epi pen to keep on hand, just to be safe. Rob stayed home with him Monday as he was still suffering and by Tuesday he was finally starting to feel better. So, a week and a half later, three separate issues and he is finally back to himself today. We will need to bring him to get tested to confirm any allergy, just to be safe.
Now unfortunately Rob has caught Owens cold and is in need of some TLC.
