Even When He is Sick!

This poor little boy of mine is STILL sick. It has been 3 weeks today. I feel so bad for him. I had to bring him to the doctor on Tuesday to get his 4 month shots. The Dr. said that his ears were red and had fluid in them. But, since he has been sick for so long, we weren't sure if he is getting over ear infections, or if he is just getting them. We didn't want to start antibiotics if we didn't have to, so she said to keep an eye on him and bring him back if he got worse. Well, the girls at daycare said that he cried almost all day yesterday and he wouldn't really eat. We sent him back today after giving him Tylenol and I called to check on him. They said that he was still crying and now he was pulling at his ears. And he still didn't really want to eat. So. I called the doctor, and Steve took him in. Here is the picture that I received from Steve while they were at the doctor's office. That man can even get this kid to smile and laugh when he doesn't feel good.

So, we had to start antibiotics anyway. Hopefully, we can finally get this boy well!!
