Friday Night Excitement

Some of our friends invited us to go to Jungle Jims, Friday Night, for some family fun. The kids are so excited to ride the rides and we are excited to enjoy the evening together. On the drive there, the kids put on their ear phones and we all enjoyed the 20 minute ride. When we arrived Heath went to get Kamdon out of the car (he had fallen asleep) and pulled his ear phones off. His left ear was filled with blood. We began to freak out a little. He was still breathing and seemed fine, so we pawned Taylee and Tydon off to our friends and headed to the nearest Kids Care. When we arrived, Kam woke up and was as happy as ever, like nothing was wrong. We didn't have to wait to long before we saw a pediatrician who checked him out and let us know that we had a horrible ear infection and that ear still had a tube in it from his surgery a year ago. The tube was doing what it was supposed to do by draining the ear. I was shocked and relieved! (No doctor ever told me that his ear could drain blood and lots of it). She also ran a strep test while we were there and it came back positive. Poor kid! He had not shown any signs or symptoms of either illness. The doctor ordered some ear drops, an antibiotic and a cheese pizza. So we were off, back to try to salvage a little of the evening and to see what Taylee and Tydon were up to.

The kids had a good time riding the rides and we all had an evening of adventure!
