Just Super

Dylan has an ear infection. Luckily, today is my day off so I could take him to the doctor without missing work. I just hate to start calling out when I've only been back for a week.

You wouldn't know it to look at him. He's all giggles and smiles still.

Yeah, the daycare called yesterday saying his temperature was 100.2, and one more point and I'd have to come get him. They took it because he was crying and crying and nothing would console him. So I left a little early and went and got him. Of course, when I got there, he was fine and when I took his temp at home it was 99.4 which isn't a temperature at all. But he's all congested and he hasn't been sleeping well at night the last two nights because he's up coughing and sneezing and being congested, so I took him to the doctor today.

The doctor also said that his gums are very swollen, so he's teeting too. Isn't that wonderful? Will the fun never end?

So, he goes to the doctor anyway on the 29th, so that will also be his follow-up sick appointment. He's on antibiotics now (the yummy pink), so hopefully he'll start feeling better and sleeping through the night again.

Poor little guy. You'd think he'd have to be in daycare more than a week to start picking up germs. He coughs and then looks at you all pitifully like, "What is going on with that?"

Other than that, daycare has been getting better. On Friday they said he had a really good day. Nurse Ratchet turned out to not be so bad, she must have just been having a bad day or something. The next day she was all impressed with Dylan because he giggled at her and is so strong and can sit at the table like the older babies, even though he's not yet four months.

Oh - and I almost got picked for a jury. I was in the jury box and everything. Then one of the lawyers dismissed me. I wouldn't have minded serving if, again, I hadn't just gone back to work.

I'm so tired. Dylan's sleeping. I wish I could be sleeping but the window people are here installing the stupid bay window. I'm going to keel over soon. And Darren may have to work late. I'm just loving today.

Yummy pink is awesome. I wish I could still take that. Of course the dose would be about 1 gallon, 3 times a day. Totally worth it though. Pills are boring.

Aww, poor dear! I hope the kid's feeling better. Take good care of yourself so you don't catch it, too!

Hope that the ear infection passes quickly! But teeth! My goodness he is growing quickly!
