Poor baby.

Recognize this kid?


Yeah, me neither.

A week following our trip to San Francisco, Ned came down with a nasty nose-running, eye-bulging, phlegm-induced coughing virus. Okay, okay, so I tend to over-react and suffer a *bit* (ha!) from the overprotectiveness that I hear frequents first-time Moms. So, we did all the right things: humidifier on high all day, steam time in the bathroom three times daily, nose sucking, fluid forcing...you get the picture.

So why did Ned wind up waking up 4 days into this virus looking nearly unrecognizable?

Simple answer, thank you Doctor. "Whoa! Her right ear is a mess!" Yep, Ned's first ear infection and first course of antibiotics are under our collective belt.

Think she's feeling better?

Oy.

Glad she's feeling better! Have you guys recovered from the sleep deficit yet?

Hm. Hard to tell. You'll have to run a controlled experiment to see if you can tell when it's time for the next dose without looking at the clock.

That top picture is a classic!
