7 months....


For his 7 month birthday, my poor little man got himself his first ear infection. Boo. =) He started running fever on Wednesday of last week. I wasn't sure if it was from his teeth or something else. But Thursday, he started pulling on his little ear and I noticed some fluid drainage. So, I figured we better get into the doctor before the weekend. We headed to see Dr. B and she said there was alot of fluid built up behind his little ear drum. She gave us an antibiotic to clear it up. And we are using tylenol for the fever. His fever seemed to break this weekend, but he is having a weird reaction from the medicine. He has a little rash on his face, chest, and back. Poor thing. =( Apparently, its a normal side effect. We go back in on Tuesday for a recheck, and for his 6 month shots since he has been under the weather. Friday we have a pre-op appointment for surgery, and then on the 11th we will be headed to Cooks for his surgery. So, I am hoping and praying that everything goes well! We have had a pretty eventful month and the following month sounds to be the same!
7 month stats from our last appointment were:
Height: 17 1/4 inches
Weight: 16 pounds 8 ounces
Head: 14 centimeters
Baby D is getting so big! He's not that far behind his sissy! I will not be suprised if he passes her up eventually!
He is sitting up really well, and trying to get up on all fours. He loves to bounce either in his bouncy chair or on your knee. He is starting to sleep better at night. Hopefully, I will be able to put them in the same room soon. He is eating a fruit for lunch and a veggie\cereal for dinner. And he usually has a few snacks throughout the day. He is full of smiles and so much fun to be around!! Thank you for blessing me with beautiful joyful babies!!!!
