Ashley had rather an awful night on Friday. Up every hour or so, sitting up and crying. Well poor girl probably couldn't breathe! This is what her face looked like Saturday morning..
When Mommy tried to snap a second picture, ah choo!
Poor girl. So we laid low on Saturday so Ashley could rest and get better. Trevor was excited because that meant a jammie day and we made a gingerbread man, with sugar cookie dough but it worked nonetheless!
He did a great job! It expanded quite a bit in the oven so it didn't come out looking like this but it did taste yummy!
Saturday was another bad night for Ashley, up every few hours then wouldn't let go of Mommy from 1-3am and on Sunday Trevor woke up with an awful wet, barking cough! So Brian took him to Minute Clinic where he was diagnosed with an ear infection...which Mommy could hardly believe because usually when he has an ear infection he lets you know and he cries in pain (and often holds his ear). But, Mommy isn't a doctor so he started his antibiotics before Grandma Pauline and Papa John came over to watch the Superbowl.
Well at least Ashley was back to her happy self. In her cute outfit...or her Amish outfit like Daddy called it....and then he said if it was orange it would be a prison jumper. Oh well, he doesn't understand fashion. You still look cute Ashley!
The game was well interesting, the commercials were pretty good, our chili and apps were delicious and Daddy even got a few cuddles in!
Poor Trevor though wanted to hang out by himself in the media room and watch the ipad and then he wanted to put himself to bed :( Well when we went to bed we checked on him and he had a 102 fever and had a bloody nose everywhere. Poor guy! So it was good we started the antibiotics even if Mommy didn't think he had an ear infection.
Ashley had an okay night Sunday and Trevor woke up back to 100% on Monday but he stayed home from school because of his fever the day before. Ashley had an appt to talk about allergy tests since she accidentally had a little peanut butter and broke out around her mouth (same thing happened when she had a homemade donut hole fried in peanut oil)...well guess what? That little stinker has her first ear infection :(
The pediatrician had to clear some wax out of her to really see but once she did, there was no denying it. So that explains why Ashley didn't sleep well, it hurt to lay down. Same with why she didn't nap all day Monday (no joke, not once!). Mommy should have known but she thought Ashley had an ear infection so many other times after having rough nights only to learn her ears were nice and clear that she thought Ashley was not susceptible to ear infections like her brother. Wrong!
Well after two doses of the pink medicine, Ashley slept all night and continues to be her happy self! This doesn't look like two kids with matching left ear infections, does it?
Oh wait! Before we forget.....the pediatrician looked in Trevor's ears and doubted that he had an ear infection because they were perfect! She was skeptical that after just one dose of medicine the day prior and one right before we came in that they would be cleared up, but she didn't see his ears the day before so she couldn't say 100%. However, since he just had his second dose she said he had to continue with the rest of the days of Zithromax. Grrrrrrrrr to Minute Clinic!!
