A Sick Little Boy

i have this horrible "tradition" of always ending up sick for Christmas. this year seems to be no exception, besides the fact that its Connor who is sick instead of me. poor little guy :( this last week he caught a yucky yucky cold. he had a stuffed up nose with yucky green snot and a fever for 3 days, and he was sooo fussy. my little guy rarely cries and is never clingy, so i knew something was up. he didn't get better as the week went by so i was concerned something worse was happening. i'm glad i followed my gut feeling because the cold ended up developing an ear infection :( i took him to his doctor's yesterday, so he is now on meds til he's all better! its been so sad for me to watch him so miserable! and today MY ear has started hurting too! i'm hopeful i'm just having weird sympathy pain and not getting my own ear infection. but man does it hurt! no wonder my little boy has been so uncomfortable!!! he is one meds for the next week, so my pathetic tradition continues on, and he'll most likely still be sick over christmas. :( but, on a side note, he's now over 18 lbs. and he's continuing to work on his crawling. i'm working on getting a video of it to post for you all to see. :)
