Sick Kids :(

A break from all the Christmas fun for something not so fun.   Today we saw our pediatrician for the 3rd time in less than a week.  Here's the story on each kid...

Coop-This boy basically had a runny nose off and on throughout our Christmas break and I just brushed it off as a cold.  He was kind of cranky when we got back but we just attributed it to getting back into a routine.  Well, I finally took him to doctor last Thursday.  One peek in his mouth and the doctor saw a really red throat with pus...I felt awful!  The verdict...a sinus infection!

Laney-Last Tuesday she had her 4 month well visit and the doctor noticed some fluid in her ear.  She said to keep an eye on it...could develop into ear infection.  Fast forward to today, the last 2 nights Laney has been up at 4:30, she hasn't done this since the first couple weeks of her life.  And, she just wasn't sleeping very soundly for the day.  I took her in today, the ear that had the fluid had cleared up, but the other ear was infected and she had a temp of 100.2.

That means we are amoxicillin distributors morning and night in this house for the next several nights.
