What Number is This?
Wednesday night at 1:30 a.m. (I guess technically that would be Thursday morning) Deacon woke up screaming. I went into his room and tried to give him his pacifier, but he did not want it. All he wanted was his Mommy to pick him up and I did just that. But because it was Bryan’s night I took him into Bryan and said here you go. Most nights Bryan would get up, get him back to sleep and put him back in bed….but not this night. I guess Bryan needed his sleep as much as I did and we ended up just letting him “sleep” with us. Note that when I say sleep I don’t really mean sleep, I mean he laid in bed with us and cried and was inconsolable. I knew within just a few minutes we were in for a very long night. I felt sorry for Deacon because I knew something was wrong…I wasn’t for sure but I was guessing another ear infection. Thursday morning I took Deacon to the doctor and was not surprised when he said that he had an ear infection, but I was surprised when he said he had a double ear infection. This makes number ?, I have honestly lost track of how many ear infections he has had since Christmas. We go back to the doctor in 2 weeks to “reevaluate” Deacon’s ears and discuss tubes. I have mixed feelings about this, but I am not going to get ahead of myself, so we will wait to see what the doctor has to say in a couple weeks.
Last night was not any better, but I hoping the maybe, just maybe the worst has past. One thing that I think Deacon enjoys about being sick is the medicine…the boy loves taking medicine. Once you put it in the syringe (is that what those things are called), he sucks it out in an instant. I think he would drink the whole bottle if I would let him (obviously I wouldn’t do that).
On another note…do you remember this toy?
This has been one of Deacon’s favorite toys, but it is being put away for the awhile. Deacon has started trying to pull up on everything and he has pulled this toy over on himself 3 times. I figure we will put it away for a few weeks and when we pull it out he will think he has a new toy
