Before you read about how sad and unhappy Maddie has been I thought I would make you smile with adorable picture of Chloe from this weekend. We attended Pajama Birthday Brunch Party and the kids got to wear their jammies. It was super cute. (She has donut in her mouth… haha!)

Maddie has been a bit off for the past couple of days. I had chalked it up to teething or just having a mild cold or the fact that she had started on solids… but it wasn’t adding up. Last night she (and in turn Tim and I) slept TERRIBLY. She would wake up every 30-45 min. crying out in pain. You should know that she doesn’t normally cry much at all, so this was even more alarming to us. We were able to get her into the doctor’s office this morning and he discovered her right ear is filled with puss. Luckily it doesn’t sound like it is a ridiculously bad infection and it’s contained to just one ear. So she’s on medication now and we’re hoping she’s feeling better soon. I don’t think she has a very high pain threshold, so the ear infection was making every other “little” annoyance or uncomfortable thing–like gas bubbles–unbearable for her. Hence the screaming out last night. At least, that’s what I’m guessing. With babies it’s always a guess.
I’m glad this is happening now and not on our family trip over Thanksgiving–no one will be fighting to hold her if she screaming! 😉
Unhappy baby… 🙁
I love both pictures in this post!!
Poor Maddie. I sympathize. I had an ear infection recently, too. Not as bad as that, because apparently my pain threshold is even lower than her’s and I went in right away. But I had to go in twice, because the meds they gave me for a middle ear infection didn’t cover the problem I was having with what turned out to be my outer ear infection.
Can’t wait to hug all your babies!!
We take all babies- sick or not!
Hope she feels better soon!
Poor baby! Give her a hug from Nana (even if she has no idea who I am!)
And tell Chloe she is beautiful even with a donut in her mouth.
