February 24 - Ear infection won't keep Lainey down...

So, today we went to the Dr. and bad news, we have an ear infection again. That explains the crankiness... She also weighed in at a wopping 12 pounds and 3 ounces WITH her clothes on... Little peanut!! I left the Dr. to take Alaina back to daycare. I gave her a dose of tylenol to try and help until I could get the antibiotic filled. I felt like the WORST mom in the world leaving her at daycare when she didn't feel well, but, I have already been home twice this year and I get five sick days the whole year. Plus, she wasn't contagious... Guess I need to save the days where we HAVE to stay home. But...it was still horrible. I left the daycare and ran to drop off her prescription so that I could pick it up after work, grabbed something to eat, and ran back out the door to go back to work. As if the day wasn't bad enough, I backed out of my parking spot and the guy across the aisle from me wasn't paying attention and backed into the back of my SUV. He, of course, had no damage, but my car has a small dent and some scratches. *sigh* It isn't even worth turning into insurance, plus, they would probably rule it no fault because we were both in reverse in a parking lot. Ugh. Thankfully, the guy was super nice. I do appreciate that. He apologized profusely and gave me his information in case Teddy wanted to talk to him and all that, but, ugh. Just not what I needed. So after all of this, I had to go back to work!!! I couldn't wait to get out of there at 3:30 but at 3:25 my manager stops by my desk and wants a "quick meeting." He knows my baby is sick and I need to go and he says it won't last more than about 10 minutes. FIFTY minutes later I was walking out of his office. I was FURIOUS. Not only did I feel horrible taking her back to daycare but NOW I am late picking her up. Thankfully, she did pretty well. The tylenol helped and we picked up her antibiotic and started that, so, we are on the up and up.
As you can see above though, the ear infection didn't affect her mood 100% of the time. She was a smiley for a little bit last night, but, we definitely weren't happy the whole night!
