+ 3 days...and a little...

Well, just wanted to pretty much post an update about our little family dramatics here. Josh is better...we managed to get a Dr. appt. today about noon, and before that he had slept several 2-3 hr. intervals through the night, not waking up very much b/t each one, usually just enough to whine and fuss a little and either be moved or tucked back in. Then he got up and ate some toast and had some juice/pedialyte late this morning, and perked up some and ran around and stuff for a little while. It was nice to see our normal little boy back again for a few min.!!

We didn't see "his" dr. but the man we did see was very nice, grandfatherly type and gave him a sucker** and told me he had an ear infection in his left ear, and that his right was pretty red in one part. Then he let me look in the otoscope and showed me what he was talking about. We got some meds for him and after a LONG drawn out melt down, finally got home, where he had another meltdown, which ended in him falling asleep watching Snoopy on the couch. When he woke up he was more his normal Josh self, and had another few times this evening of fairly normal play time. He also ate some ham, banana, and animal crackers. Yay for keeping food down! He's still had some fever, but he responds more quickly to the meds now, and hopefully that will be gone by tomorrow after he's been on the antibiotic for a full day.

Sam has shown very little sign of wanting to be born before his "eviction" on Wed, but we'll keep you posted if something does happen!
