So I don't like taking the kids to the Doctor. It bugs me when people take their kids to the doc for every tiny little thing and most times the doc will say the same thing.

I had to take Tallie yesterday because I knew that she has strep throat and we are getting together with family for Christmas and I need her to be feeling better and NOT contagious.

So for the first time in 3 years Tallie is on antibiotics.

She is still pretty miserable and pretty much cried every half hour last night (along with the other two). It was a bad, sleepless night for all.

And somehow this sickness has sucked all of the Christmas cheer out of our house.

I hope she feels better soon and I PRAY that no one else gets it.

In the meantime I need to work on getting our house back into the Christmas Spirit.
