The week of August 17th was a rough one for Andrew.
- Monday the poor boy was sent home from school because he had a fever.
- Tuesday he stayed home and was so sad, he clung to mommy and slept on her shoulder most of the day. In the afternoon we went to his 9 month well check to find out he's a healthy growing boy despite the virus he had. He was 30.5 inches long (95th percentile) and 19 pounds, 4 ounces (40th percentile). His weight was great and even up a bit from his last check at 6 months. He wasn't able to get his shot because he had a fever.
- Wednesday, his 9 month birthday he stayed home with Dad and again was sad, clingy, and tired.
- Thursday he stayed home one more time with mom.
- Friday he went to school but was very cranky.
- Saturday and Sunday he was miserable and we thought he may be getting teeth but nothing showed up.
- Monday and Tuesday he went to school but still wasn't his happy self. Everyone was concerned. We went back to the doctor on Tuesday to find he has his first ear infection. He's now on amoxicillin (which he hates taking) and it will end the day before we leave on vacation! After 2 days of it he's starting to be his normal happy self again and we welcome the happy Andrew with open arms.
Here are some pics of the poor boy feeling sick and the weekly shot, another rendition of Week 1
