Ear Infection : (

So Tyler has his first ear infection - poor boy! He was so cranky all weekend and had HORRIBLE nights sleep Saturday and Sunday night and still woke up pretty upset on Monday morning so I ended up having Chad take him to the Dr. yesterday while I was at work. I had a feeling what it was and sure enough...a double ear infection. We're now giving him antibiotics, drops in his ears and some tylenol for pain. The tylenol and drops are helping him sleep much better (he's on solid nap #2 right now, thank goodness!) but he's still pretty unhappy when he's awake. I'm getting a lot of use out of my Bjorn though cause he just wants to be held and held, which is completely fine by me!! Poor little thing!! 

Onto another note, he is SOOOO close to crawling! I know the painful ear infection is getting in the way but he took his first "step" with one hand and one knee forward the other night and when he brought his other hand and knee up he plopped to the ground. This next milestone is so exciting but I know I'll be wishing it didn't come so soon when he's into everything around the house!! I MAJORLY need to babyproof the house - maybe this long holiday weekend...
