Poor Bradyn

Well, our week started off great with the Steelers winning on Sunday. We are so excited that they are going to the Super Bowl. Then on Monday, poor little Bradyn had a low grade temp at daycare. Bob picked me up from work with Bradyn because he had my car in for service and Bradyn screamed the entire trip home. Now this is not my child normally so I knew something was wrong. Poor little guy. We got home and had dinner then Bradyn got a tubby. Well, when I washed his ear he screamed. So I knew where we were headed. Thanks goodness our pediatrician has a peds after hour clinic that they are affiliated with so that parents don't have to take their child to the ER. We got a 9pm appt that night and off we went. It was snowing like crazy and the roads were terrible. Well, guess what? Mommy was right (daddy wasn't so sure mommy was right until AFTER the doctor checked his ears!) His little eardrum was flaming red. So now we are on antibiotics for 10 days and then we see our pediatrician in 3 weeks. I should have known that this was coming because he had a really bad cold with a lot of congestion for about 4 days before this.

Bob left for a trip on Tuesday and so Bradyn and I were by ourselves. I took him to daycare because he had no fever but I really wished that I could have stayed home with him because he just wanted to be held. He started feeling better yesterday.

Bob got home from his trip tonight. Bradyn and I went to the library for a lap sit. The theme was trains and of course Bradyn loved that. We look forward to the next one. We really don't have anything planned for this weekend. No pictures to post but I will make up for that this weekend!
