Convention Weekend

We went down to the cities this past week for a covention that Paul signed up for through work.. The union provided the free hotel stay at the Sheraton and also provided free child care....Paul and I were so excited thinking of all the fun things we could do while down in the cities.... Our vacation started with Mommy and Grandma Nancy taking the twins over to see Clifford at the Zajkowski household Wednesday evening... Tyler and Trevor just screamed and didn't have fun at all seeing clifford.. They started to calm down as soon as Grandma Nancy took off the costume.... Then we headed back to the hotel to settle in for the night, which ended up being a VERY VERY long night... Tyler was so restlesss and seemed to wake almost every 1/2 house just crying and crying.. He wasn't showing any real symptoms of illness, so we weren't sure what was wrong... The next morning he started with runny nose and just wanted cuddles.... So mommy spent most of the day in the hotel room with the boys.. I did manage to get the kids out of the hotel for a short trip down to usbank to see my old co-workers.. They were all so excited to see the boys.. This was the first time they met them...My friend Sommer and I took the kids to McDonnalds, but the boys just didn't have any appetites... After this, we headed back to the hotel and spent the rest of the evening just cuddling and reading stories... At this point, Trevor was also coming down with somthing, so we had an even MORE restless night with both boys... I felt so bad for our little guys.. I know this trip got to be very long for them and I was so tempted to take them back home!!! but we stuck it out and they seemed to be getting better by the time we were heading home on Saturday afternoon... But they both still had fevers and were getting more miserable as the night went on... Paul came home early from work on Sunday and we got the kids into our same day clinic on Sunday.. Come to find out Tyler has a double ear infection and Trevor also has an ear infection... Tyler also has a minor case of Pneumonia.. My poor Babies!!!! The infection was serious enough that the doctor decided to inject their first dose of antibiotics into their legs to help get it into their systems faster... The boys also had blood work down and Tyler had a chest x-ray ( which was NO fun for the little guy)!!!! I was so impressed that the boys did great getting their blook drawn... Trevor didn't even cry!!!!! At the end of the visit, the doctor went and got the kids each a stuffed kitten that meows.. This was so sweet of her and Tyler even smiled at her when she gave him the kitty... Tyler has carried the little stuffed kitten around the whole house ever since we got home!!
