Murphy's Law

Don and I had a very busy Friday, juggling our schedules so that we could take Calum for a hearing test on Friday afternoon. We picked him up from daycare and were getting ready to go out for his appointment when I noticed his ear was draining fluid again. An ear infection! He had been very restless the night before and Don and I got very little sleep as we had to get up and watch cartoons with him. We thought it was a cold but we were wrong.

Luckily, since we were both home anyway we took him to the doctor and got in to see her in record time. I think we were in and out the door in 15 minutes. He's on medication for 10 days and it seems to be helping. He was up at 4:30 today, and I couldn't get him back to sleep till 7:00. It's thrown our whole day off but he seems happier now. All of the kids are off for the week - spring break. Desiree and Dakota are helping with Calum as the last two weeks are busy for both Don and I. Let's hope the rest of the week is a bit better.
