It's been a rough few days (yawn. . . ) Stratton started running a fever late Friday night/Saturday morning. And was sick all weekend. So, we took him to the Dr first thing Monday morning and they said he has an ear and sinus infection. Great. He has been taking an oral antibiotic and cough medicine along with alternating tylenol and motrin since then. We have kept him at home, of course. My mom watched him Monday afternoon and Terry and Margie came yesterday. Yesterday he was still running a fever off and on and last night he was still running a low fever and kept us up some during the night with his congestion and coughing. So Jarrod took off today to stay home with him and took him back to the Dr this morning. They gave him a shot of antibiotics, even though she said his ears looked better. I guess with two infections it just takes more time and more meds to take care of it? Anyway, Jarrod and have been not getting enough sleep and are both dealing with colds of our own now. Ugh. [Lack of sleep + allergies & colds + working all day = tired, cranky parents!!]
Hopefully (crossing my fingers!) he won't run a fever today and he can go back to daycare tomorrow. I hate that he is sick but I hate even worse paying for a week of daycare that he hasn't even been there for! I digress. . .
