Sick Baby

Let me recap the second half of our week for everyone that has not already heard...After a full day of unstoppable, inconsolable crying on Thursday we ended up taking Josephine to the ER around 930 that night. Finally around 1200am she was diagnosed with more ear infections. She had just finished antibiotics on Monday from her last round of ear infections. She was poked and stuck with needles, she got antibiotic shots along with some blood work and ear drops. This is the short version of the story as 5.5 hours in the ER brought us a ton of adventure. We saw our regular pediatricians on Friday and they gave her another shot and prescribed more oral antibiotics. We will go back on the 28th to make sure that they are gone for good this time. They told us, 1 more infection and she will have to get tubes. At this point, I'm all for it...just to save her the misery.
As of today she is almost 100% back to her normal happy self. We spent the day with some of my family at a cook-out. She got a ton of attention and seemed to enjoy every minute of it.
