The girls had their flu shots on Monday! Callie didn't even flinch or cry. She was too focused on the sucker and bandaid she knew she was going to get. :) Emma wasn't quite as brave. She cried a little, but got over it pretty quickly.

Emma is sick again. :( She has a bad cough and a touch of diarrhea. It's not bacterial, so no antibiotics this time. We basically have to wait it out. :( She seems to feel okay most of the day. Mornings are the worst. She just coughs and coughs (to the point of throwing up). We have cut our quite a bit of dairy, including milk, until she's over this. While we were at the doctor, they did take blood to see if her white blood count was okay (it was). She was fascinated w/ the finger prick and putting the blood in the little straw. :) The nurse was very impressed by how well Emma did!

Josh is on a field trip today. They're going to see Junie B. Jones (on ice???) at the coliseum today. He was a little worried that there would be fireworks. He HATES loud noises and he was afraid the fireworks would be too loud. I have no idea if there will be fireworks or not - hope not, for his sake.

We're leaving on Friday to go to Panama City Beach, Fl. We're excited! I just hope Emma is feeling better. Maybe that sea air will help clear her up!

After we get back, Emma has her surgery (tubes, removing of tonsils and adenoids).
