Its been quite a crazy last week in the Spurlock household. Saturday we went up to Clarksville (2 hours south from here) to a friend's wedding. Before we left Korben told me he wasn't feeling well. He hasn't been feeling well for the past week. Just nausious and such. So I took his temp and it was at 102.7. I told him to call Papa Gilbert to see if he could watch him while we go to the wedding. Papa G was at work. So we call Ray and he said he would watch Korben while we went. They went to Walmart to look for the Clone Trooper gun and to get pumpkins to carve while we were gone.
The wedding was short and nice. Alot like ours but they were in traditional dress and had a whole wedding party. They needed more tables/chairs for the reception though. People ate in shifts.
Anyways Korben was mostly mopey and still had a fever the whole weekend. On Monday I took him to the Drs. they did a rapid test for Strep. It came back negative but the Dr said he had ALL the symptoms for it. He ended up giving us a Rx for it anyways. Day two of Korben being on it and his throat is hurting pretty bad. On top of that, he has one of his permanant molars coming through and has a bump on the side of his tongue. SO its been hard for him to eat anything. I told Korben that his throat will probably hurt for a couple more days then it will slowly get better. But his energy level is better. He swept the kitchen floor this afternoon and 'mopped' it as well.
Now with Julianna. On Friday I noticed a red bump on her right cheek. It looked like a Mosquito bite that she had been mesisng with. On Saturday it looked a bit different. More red. Yesterday I put some benadryl on it. At night I put some Black Salv on a bandaid and let that sit on her cheek over night. I took it off this morning and it looked a bit worse. I am not sure if it is a spider bite or not. I looked up Brown Recluse bite pictures and it doesn't look like that. Plus she has been picking at it today and made it bleed. I cleaned it off with 1/2water 1/2 peroxide solution and but some more benadryl cream on her cheek. I taped a cotton ball on top of it. She ripped it off once already. I just hope tomorrow it is better. If it looks worse Iw ill take her to a walk-in clinic and get a Rx for that as well.
Now I am jsut waiting for Matt or I to have something wrong with us. Everything comes in threes here!

So sorry to hear that the kids are feeling sick! I hope Julianna's spot improves and that Korben's throat feels better soon. Sore throats are rough!! Poor kids!
