Sick is "Yuck"!

We've had to take Jack to the doctor twice in two weeks. He's had a running nose, cough and nasal congestion for two and half weeks now. Last week, the doctor said it was viral and it would take about five days to run its course. We felt so bad for him! He coughs all night, has the hardest time breathing through his nose and we've been chasing him around with a box of Kleenex. He started running a low grade fever on Wednesday and wasn't getting any better, so yesterday we went back to the doctor. Come to find out, he has an ear infection in his left ear. The doctor put him on an antibiotic, which will help his ear and the congestion.

Jack has been so good through all this and hasn't skipped a beat! Every time I wiped his nose, I would say "yuck" and he started to repeat me. So now almost every time we wipe his nose he says "yuck"!

Playing in his Crawl 'N Play tent...he's never to sick to play.
