Sick Baby....





It was a long weekend at our house this week. On Friday morning I dropped Michael off at daycare at 6:45 and got a call at 9 at work that he was very sick. He had a fever that was slowly rising and white ear drainage. He has had a cold for the last couple of weeks and as soon as I picked him up, we went to his pediatrician's and found out that the cold has spread to his ears causing an ear infection in both ears and a ruptured ear drum in his right ear. He was put on antibiotics, but the poor little man was miserable all weekend. All he wanted was to be held (no easy task at his age) and if I even moved more than an arm's length away or set him down (even if it was right next to me), he would scream. He seemed to be getting better last night so hopefully we're on the downhill slope from here. You know it's bad though when you pick your son up from daycare and he looks like this. And he looked like this most of the weekend. :( On a happier note, we were able to get his new room half done (just have final touches on the scoreboard and lines on the field and stadium lights left) and he got a brand new bed set in all BSU colors (orange pillow with a blue and orange blanket).
