Seems as though

Little boy has his first ear infection. I thought he was just teething. He's still teething but now with an ear infection. This does not make for a happy boy. Also, symptom of the ear infection is runny nose which little boy rubs and then rubs his eyes. Next comes conjunctivitis in his eyes. That's really gross. Now he has yellow snot dripping from his nose and eyes and I'm chasing him around every couple of minutes trying to clean the boogers off of him. He wakes up in the morning with caked on boogers all over his face.

He's on a strong antibiotic that should clear everything up...in ten days. What?

Other than the gross fluid coming from everywhere he's ok, well, aside from not sleeping and at 4 am running around the living room like a lunatic. I think he's delirious. I don't think he's getting enough oxygen to his brain because he can't breathe.

Boo- that's no fun. The snot all over the face is so gross. I remember those days. I dread antibiotics because the girls are so bad at taking medication of any kind. It is torturous! I hope Aidan is good at taking it for you. Thinking about you and the sick boy.

Poor baby. Poor mommy. Hope he gets well soon.

on the mend that's for sure. Still a little drippy but not the huge chunks of snot that somehow ended up all over my shoulders.
