Ever changing plans

Everything we had planned for the weekend all changed Thursday evening. We were planning on going out for supper Thursday night after being doing some shopping at the mall. When we got to the car I had a message from Tj's coach that they had set up a game for the team to play Sunday night and we were suppose to be at the field at 5:30pm and that was only a half hour away. So we rushed to the field so Tj could check out his stuff again and practice a bit. Well by the time they got their stuff checked back out they had 4 games scheduled over the weekend all in Omaha! So Friday night Scott and Tj went to Omaha for his game and it didn't get started until 9:30pm and they got home late. Then Saturday morning all of us got up early and headed back to Omaha for his second game at 11:45am. These games they scheduled were all star games and he and 4 other boys were chose from the Lincoln team to play with some players from the Omaha team. They won both Friday and Saturday's games by a long ways. When we got back to town Saturday afternoon everyone relaxed a bit then had to go to Tj's step performance that night. It was a lot of fun and neat to see all levels perform with his middle school team, some high school teams, and two college teams. When we all got home we were exhausted and the girls and I went straight to bed. Today Tj was suppose to have a game at 11:45am then again at 3:30pm. After the last two days and the girls not feeling good I decided we would stay home so Scott and Tj went by themselves. When they got to the field they found out that the two teams that they were suppose to play today had forfeited! So after the trophy presentation Scott, Tj, and 5 other boys from Omaha came back to Lincoln to prepare for another game that is set to be tonight at 7pm. Scott dropped all the boys off at the sports complex where the game will be tonight and they have spent the afternoon there and will have supper. Scott said the drive back to Lincoln with six 11 and 12 year olds was very interesting and there was never a dull moment. Haley ended up using Tj's hockey ticket Friday night and had a blast. The girls and I just stayed home and rested. While we were home Tate broke out in a rash all over her body and itching. I called the doctor and they thought it was a reaction to the antibiotics that she had been prescribed a couple days earlier and we were suppose to discontinue them. After some benadryl she was fine. Saturday night again she broke out all over her legs but it wasn't nearly as bad as Friday night when it was all over her body. Then again today she broke out on her face with the rash and itching. I am not convinced that it's from the antibiotics since we haven't been giving them to her and she still is breaking out. The doctor now thinks maybe it's viral hives or something. But the same thing has happened before when she was on another antibiotic last year. Since she gets penicillin shots monthly they aren't sure why she doesn't have a reaction to that but is to these others. Her headaches are continuing to get worse and more frequent so hopefully we will get something figured out tomorrow at her appointment in Omaha. Keely is so stuffed up and still has tons of green junk coming out her nose and watery eyes even after one round of antibiotics. We have started doing her nebulizer treatments every few hours and it is helping loosen some junk up. Hopefully that will get her cleared up soon. I got my first allergy shot on Friday and if I hadn't seem the needle and medicine I wouldn't have even known I ever got a shot. I didn't even feel the slightest poke at all. It really was weird! But I am thankful it doesn't hurt especially since I will be getting them weekly for a long time. We feel terrible that we missed out on the two birthday parties we were suppose to go to today but also know that everyone else doesn't want whatever it is that we have and can't seem to get rid of. After this weekend I think I am ready for the week to begin for once!
