Sick Baby...AGAIN!!

Alright, so its not an ear infection this time...that's good news. At least the tubes are working.

Today was an example of divine intervention at its best. Mondays are usually a longer day at work for me. But a fellow teacher needed a ride to her after school job (I know, can you believe someone who teaches 25 5 year olds can have another job!!!) so I left at 3:30.

I barely get in the door of the daycare before they let me know how awful Brody had been feeling. He spent the day either screaming his head off or sleeping. He had been running a low grade fever, never getting over 100 but just enough to make him feel yucky.

So, I called the doctor and they agreed to see him. He ended up having a sinus infection, red ear, red throat. We got a shot of that R drug, no clue how to spell it, an antibiotic, and a decongestant.

Currently he is in his bed. Sounds like he's hacking up a lung or something. I think its going to be a long night, one ending up with him in the swing in our room.

What a night for Ken to be working late...

I now have a GREATER appreciation for single moms, I don't know how you do it all the time by yourself. I'm exhausted! (And I had grandparent help!)
