Ear Trouble

Little Bug Man has been pretty sick this past week. He's had the cough/ cold mess for over 2 weeks now and last Monday night into Tuesday morning blessed us with waking up at 3am and just couldn't get comfortable enough to go back to sleep until around 5 or so (after throwing up his drink of water I might add). So off to the peds we went Tuesday morning. I was glad I took him because poor baby had double ear infections. They put him on an antibiotic (amoxicillin) but then Thursday and Friday he ran between a 101- 102 degree temperature all day. So we alternated motrin and tylenol for pretty much two days straight. This picture was one day around noon when he had been laying on our bed watching TV and the next thing we knew he was sound asleep.
We've still had some rough nights even though his fever seems to be gone, and he was up again last night and ended up "sleeping" in our bed with me. So this morning we called the pediatrician who called him in a prescription for a stronger antibiotic. We're hoping it does the trick!
