We have our first...

... ear infection :o( Last night was pretty rough with Paisley. She went to sleep at bedtime and woke up at 10 crying. Jordan went to soothe her {it was one of those screaming cries, and I don't let them do that for very long}, but she wouldn't have it. We were up with her until 11:20, and I put her in the swing to sleep... "desperate times call for desperate measures."

The swing didn't last long, so I rocked her, then finally laid down with her, and we both fell asleep for almost 2 hours. Then we were up every 20 minutes after that. At one point P was burning up and had a 100.8 temp! 


Needless to say I called our pediatrician this morning, and Jordan took P to see her this afternoon. I am so thankful for the intuition God gives us mothers! Paisley was happy today so I could have waited another day, but my heart said to take her. It also helps that we had lots of ear infection talk over the weekend as we visited our family because Jordan and I grew up having lots and lots of ear infections. 

We will start her on an antibiotic and baby Aleve tonight-- I hated giving her Tylenol last night because of her liver issues and acetaminophen being so hard on the liver. 
it's also teething central around here

On a side note, Caleb had his trach put in today. Surgery went well, and he will be spending several days in the ICU. Please continue praying for this sweet boy. His first birthday is next week!! You can follow Caleb's story here.

Knox is home from the hospital! While his sister has been diagnosed with the same virus Knox had, she hasn't had to be hospitalized. Click here to read more about Knox and his family.

The twins I mentioned last week are also doing well! They are taking 1 ounce of their mommy's breast milk from a bottle! I am so proud of their mom for persevering and giving Hasten and Hadley the absolute best!

Baby G has a healthy heart beat!!!!!!! Baby G's mom and dad got to hear his/her heart beat, and they are so excited!! Rejoice!

Praise Jesus for being faithful even when we are not!You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts in you.Isaiah 26:3
