Long night = even longer day!

UGH!  So Princess has been fighting a cold.  I actually thought she was on the upside, she did great yesterday.  I went to bed around 11:30, 1 hour later, I heard crying, I drug my tired body in to see what was going on.  She would NOT stop crying, after trying everything I could think of, I climbed back into bed 45 minutes later.  1 1/2 hours later, she was SCREAMING, I'm not talking crying, I'm talking I don't know how my neighbors slept through it screaming.  I was up for over an hour with her.  I figured at this point, it was an ear infection, I did everything I could for the poor thing, she kept crying for daddy, but when I handed her off, she screamed for me.  She was miserable.  She was literally writhing in pain, it was horrible to watch, esp since I didn't know what else I could do for her.  I FINALLY got her to go back to sleep sometime close to 3am.  I had to be up at 6:15 for Bray.  I drug myself downstairs.  He left, & that meant it was time for me to get up & ready.  Con had a dentist appt at 8.  I got Mike up so he could watch Princess Tornado because of course, she didn't sleep in either.  I left... Con & I got home, it's picture day for him, (poor thing, I hope the swelling went down & he wasn't still numb by the time his class got pics done,) these could be interesting! :)  As I'm leaving to take him, Chay is still holding her ear & screaming so I call the doctor's office.  Great, they can get us in in 1 hour.  I run Con to school, then head back home.  Her & I quickly get ready & leave.  (I can't stand her doctor, I seriously need to change docs, I do NOT want to go back to this lady, but that's another story)... anyway, my little Princess has a double ear infection.  

I got Dawsey off to school, Mike is gone & is picking up her prescription & I'm EXHAUSTED!!!  As of right now, the thing that is bringing me the most "joy" is... Chay is asleep & I'm headed there too.  Night...

Awwww...I'm so sorry she's got ear infections. :( Not fun...for her or you! I hope the meds kicked in so that she's already getting some relief. Poor baby!

I'm sorry! I TOTALLY know how ear infections go. I'm been through a couple (tens) of them with Leise. I hope she starts feeling better soon. Hey, mom said that you guys might be here for Easter??? Let me know so I can plan if you are. I already got the turkey.


Heehee! Just kidding. It's a ham!

That's the worst. Watching your little one in pain and not being able to doing anything for them. Sorry to hear you had such a rough time and sorry for her too. I hope she's getting better. =]
