Stats from the 3 year check up

37.5 inches tall, 32.6 lbs.

Great report, pediatrician said the sleep/won't stay in bed thing will pass (one day) and the nurse gave him 2 shots - one was a catch up shot due to a shortage when he was a baby and one was a new recommended shot from the CDC. He was less than thrilled with that part of the exam :)

Feeling Better

A few doses of antibiotics and we have a different kid! Thomas is feeling much better - he had a great day at school yesterday and went to the Farmer's Market with Christina today. He is sleeping much better at night (picture my happy dance here) and generally seems on the road to recovery. Whew.

Ears

One of Thomas' tubes is coming out early - the ENT said about 6 months too early. But, what are you going to do? Wait and see. If he gets 2 ear infections then we will need to have it put back in. Because the tube is closed he has to take antibiotics instead of the drops. YUCK.

He's had a cold for several weeks now - coming and going. But, we got a clear ear check last week at the ENT.

Yesterday his eyes were red. This morning they weren't better. So, off to the pediatrician. Yep - bacterial pinkeye from the cold and.....wait for it.......an ear infection in the ear where the tube is coming out. So, 10 days of antibiotics. The medicine is a little like bubble gum flavored chalk. Thomas had to be physically held down to get the first dose in him tonight. Chocolate ice cream helped convince him the second dose might be easier to take :)

I really wanted fall and winter to get here, but now I'm not so sure!

Wishful thinking

Bed time was a dream.

Then...he got up at 9:45pm, 9:50pm, 12:45am, 5:40am, 6:00am.

Babies sleep better than this. I used to.

Right now he's playing the xylophone.

I guess he's got the music in him!
