1st Cold and Ear Infection

Sunday before Thanksgiving Reese started getting snotty. He couldn't breathe to sleep so mommy and Reesie sat up on the couch most of the night. We went to the doctor Monday and found he had an ear infection. We picked up our prescription of amoxicillan, then we picked up Grandpa Joe, Heather's dad who flew in from Virginia. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday were pretty miserable. Mommy got Reese's cold too, so Reese was cranky and feverish and snot filled and mommy was exhausted and sick and cranky. Reese managed a bit of happy jumperoo time in between the constant screaming.
Unfortunately Reese was pretty miserable and disagreeable for Grandpa's visit. The last time Grandpa was here was in May when Reese was pretty much a blob of sleep and eat. It was disappointing that he could not be his usual active little self, but he did have short periods of pleasant behavior. He managed to laugh with Grandpa a little bit.
