Merry Christmas!

Thought I'd best write a post before Christmas and let everyone know what's been happening, if they are interested! The E Coli infection E had eventually went away but it took almost 5 weeks and 2 courses of antibiotics. It made her so poorly, she missed so much nursery as well. We thought after a fortnight she was doing really well until the infection came back, giving her headaches so the hospital gave her stronger dose of antibiotics this time. She was poorly for her 4th birthday, we had to cancel her party. Would have been her 1st ever one as well. Family came to visit though but she was miserable bless her. 2 days after that she was back in hospital. Apart from that and now a cold she seems loads better and is getting excited about Christmas! She loves all the displays in shops and keeps singing "When Santa Got Stuck Up The Chimney" which she's been learning at nursery. Luckily PM has been doing much better than her big sister. Again she's full of cold and 2 weeks ago had a trouble cough and ear infection which soon cleared up after a week of antibiotics from her GP. Luckily no hospital trips needed for her. Touch wood! She's settled into nursery now and enjoys going thankfully. Her speech is coming along at an amazing speed and her Makaton copying skills are awesome! E is finally using the potty sometimes during the day and so far only 1 accident at nursery as she couldn't get her tights off quick enough bless her. PM shocked us today to by doing her 1st ever wee in the potty! Girls will be seeing their eye specialist soon too so hopefully no bad news will come of that although they sad last time E's lazy eye was much worse than PM's so she might get a new prescription for stronger glasses in a few weeks. Don't think there is much more to say really at this moment. Just got my fingers crossed the girls stay out of hospital over Christmas and stay pretty healthy.
