Baby's First Illness

Well it had to happen sometime... Joshua had his first illness. Matt stayed home with him Wednesday because when Joshua and I got to the daycare, he picked his tired head up and threw up all over my shoulder. But that day he seemed fine other than being clingy and not feeling good. Then Thursday morning as I was buckling Joshua into his carseat, he threw up a little. Well Matt and I cleaned him up and the carseat and were trying to decide if he really threw up or got choked on a cough and spit up as there was not much to it. While debating this he projectile vomited on himself, his mommy, and his parents bed. That cleared up any questions we had. I took him to the pediatrician later that day for a nasty cough, a runny nose, a low fever, the throw up, and the fact that he was puny overall. It turns out he has an ear infection. *side note: Our little man is an ear wax producing machine. I was shocked at how much was removed from both sides at the dr's office.* Anyway, we got him some medicine and he seems to be doing much better.

Of course after that his mommy and daddy picked up a nasty 24 hour bug which made Friday and most of Saturday pretty miserable.
