Coughs and Carts

Now it's Matthew's turn to be sick -- he was feverish and unhappy on Tuesday, and still had his cough, so we took him back to the doctor yesterday. She said his throat was red and had some blisters on it, so it looks like he's come down with something new (coxsackie virus, she thinks). She said it would probably last 4-5 days, but he's at least a little happier now that the fever is gone. (And last night he was very chipper for a while after his dose of Tylenol!)

James has been feeling fine, and has been having a great time pushing his shopping cart around.

He also got new earmolds (the part of his hearing aids that that fit in his ear) on Tuesday, which hopefully will solve the problem we'd been having with the right hearing aid making a buzzing staticy noise. He was going to have another behavioral hearing test then, too (to fine-tune the programming of the hearing aids and test each ear individually), but the audiologist became a grandmother and was out of the office, so we had to reschedule. :) (We knew that was a possibility going in, and we're very happy for her!)
