Not Yet
















We don't seem to have quite turned the corner on the ear infection, although Sophie's fever dropped down under 100 this afternoon, for the first time in four days. She's still pretty miserable, which breaks my heart. She's been sleeping in our bed with me the last couple of nights while Neil slept in the guest room, since he had to work. Tonight, he's on duty and I get to sleep!

I'm hearing that the third day is the charm, so I hope that after we give her antibiotics tonight we'll start to see some more significant improvement.

    And now it's the weekend! Poor poor Sophie!

  7. :( I'm so sorry! Poor little thing... She's getting plenty of fluids, right? I have been freaky about dehydration ever since Corinne's incident a few years ago...

    Take care. Get some sleep!

  9. That's the worst, isn't it? A sick baby. A Mom always feels so helpless in this situation. Hope she is better soon and you get caught up on your sleep!
