Sleepless in Mississippi

Dr. took Chuckster to visit the doctor yesterday. The diagnosis was exactly as Dr. had said...... Chuck has his first ear infection. He did get weighed and at 5 1/2 months our little man is not exactly little. He weighs a whopping 20 pounds! The doctor could not believe how fast he is growing. The entire time he was at the doctor, he didn't seem sick. He sat and smiled the entire time at the doctor. What a good spirit he has.

It was another sleepless night here again. The antibiotics haven't kicked in yet ( we have only given it to Chuck twice.) He isn't sleeping for more than an hour at a time and then wakes up crying. Poor guy is so stopped up, he is having trouble breathing and he is still fighting a little bit of a fever. HOpefully the antibiotics will start helping today.

Dr. will be home with him today but he goes on toxicology call tonight at 5 so if he gets called in he has to go to the hospital. We are crossing our fingers he doesn't get a call tomorrow because we aren't sure what to do with the Chuckman. We are also hoping that he will be well enough to go to daycare on Thursday because Dr. has a retreat that will last all day.

We will keep you updated on our little man!
