Dropped the ball...

I dropped the ball!

I actually did a post on our kitchen cabinet transformation however it seems like blogspot lost it somewhere along the line. Im not very happy about it!!

We went super super hard on the cabinets, and of course as soon as we finished we got very sick! It seems like everyone over Christmas got sick, and so did we. Eli was the only one who didnt catch it. Judah came down with an ear infection and has been on antibiotics. Both Andy and I got super sick, and my mom had to take Eli for a day because we could barely function. Ive never had a cold like we did. Achy, sore throat, headache, you name it. It was horrible!! I really dont recommend getting sick at the same time as your spouse when you have 2 kids to take care of!! Not fun!

It really didnt feel like we had much of a break over Christmas, because we were either working hard on the cabinets or sick. We had one day where we felt not to bad to do something. So frustrating, but it is what it is!

Like I mentioned above Judah has come down with an ear infection and had to go on antibiotics. I knew he had an ear infection right after we got better. He had been poking around at his ear, fever off and on for like 2 days, diarrhea, not eating, and he has been down right miserable. I took him in and sure enough ear infection on the right ear but not left. Exactly what I suspected!!

I really didnt want to put him on another round of antibiotics but he was so miserable I couldn't not put him on. He had diarrhea continue the whole course of the antibiotics, and finally close to the end of the course he is finally starting to be his happy self!! We'll see what happens with his ears from here on out. Eli has an appointment at the specialist, and Im going to ask the doctor about Judah's ears.

On top of the ear infection Judah is sleeping horribly! It probably has alot to do with not feeling well, however he is waking up every 2-3 hours. Its exhausting and Im getting to the point where I need to do something with his sleep. Judah is 20 pounds now and there is no reason for him to be eating in the middle of the night! Little stinker.

If anyone has any tips on sleep Id love to hear them!!
