Ear infections and Mama

This week was Jude's third (yes, 3rd) ear infection in three months. We were at the doctor's twice this week, including a Saturday morning visit. She will be seeing an ENT next week - tubes are likely.

I'm glad to have an answer of sorts to these repetitive fevers, but dreading the solution. I will say, I dislike all the missed work and draining emotions (on both our parts) just as much though.

On the interesting news side, I've officially become 'Mama' to Jude. Crying at the doctor's office and calling from the bedroom, she now cries for Mama. sigh

Today was a good day (knock on wood)

I may be a bit early with my proclamation as it's only 6:30pm.

However, today:

- there were no meltdowns by any member of the house,
- Jude came home from daycare mess free (ish),
- lunch is made for tomorrow,
- dinner has been served, eaten without fuss, and cleaned up,
- Jude's bag is packed for tomorrow,
- the cat used the new litterbox (don't ask),
- its T minus 30 to bath and bed,
- and I've had 6 whole nights of real sleep in a row.

Ahhhhhhh!

For reading my whine-fest without rolling your eyes you get this fab new shot of "Jude bug".
