yet another ear infection!

Remember I had that inkling that an ear infection was brewing?!? Well, it's here. Jordan was a little unsteady this morning playing with another teacher's son before school. A friend of mine is a ped. and I had asked her if she would pretty please bring her otoscope and peek in those ears. I didn't want to run the risk of getting on a plane tomorrow with fluid in an ear. I'm glad that we looked because she does have an ear infection in her left ear. So, we started antibiotics tonight and I'm actually really thankful. The a/b will clear up any other infection she might have (sinus, etc. ) and I really think will help knock out this drainage we're still having.

By the way, the samples that I had given J earlier in the week have pseudophedrin (sp?) in them and were totally whacking her out! She wasn't sleeping right and was very irritable and cranky. Needless to say, that was only administered for 2 days. I'll take drainage over the almost-over-the-edge-all-the-time any day!

Jordan also fell today on the playground and managed to scrape the finger that was already nail-less. No other fingers were scraped--just that one! What luck we have! But, the a/b will clear up any issue that could be, too!

Wish us luck as we fly to FL tomorrow. We come back on Tuesday and I know there will be lots to share!
