This week has been crazy and I am so glad it is over.
Max has been sick for a month - he has had the worst head cold and cough. It wasn't getting ANY better!! We took him to our doctor and they were not very helpful/supportive/nice/smiley/etc...So we ended up switching doctors...and that was a blessing in disguise.
Max went for his 9 month check up at the new doctors office...Doctor Adams was our doctor. Such a sweetheart. Even let Max play with all the "tools" he was poking him with.
Max was diagnosed with RSV, a cold, teething, and all around miserable.
Then Tuesday night (The night before Canyon Crest Parent Teacher Conferences) Max woke up screaming bloody murder at 12:30. Will woke me up and from 12:30-4 we tried everything to get him to stop screaming. It was awful and so scary. This was not a normal scream, it was a high pitched cry for help. He was moving his arms and rubbing his eyes.
At 4am Will and I decided to call the doctors 24 hour hotline. The doctor told us to take him to the ER. The ER doctor was a sweetheart. He must have seen my eyes and seen the worry all over my face, we were seen right away and Max was diagnosed with a double ear infection, given drops, and an antibiotic and within 5 minutes was sound asleep.
Needless to say I did SEP conferences with 45 minutes of sleep.
Through all of this we had the BESTEST friends. We had meals brought, and prayers said. We couldn't have made it through the week without all their love...and thank you for all of the DIET COKE that was brought to Parent Teacher Conferences.
Max today (Saturday March 31st) is doing tons better. He still is draining a lot, his ears still hurt, but we have medicine and a plan. I am much better when there is a plan.
Max and I fly to New Jersey this Thursday and we are hoping that his ears don't hurt and that he doesn't cry the whole flight. Pray for us - and for a speedy recovery.
Here are some pictures from the week.
The morning after the ER trip - Max slept pretty much the whole day. Will had to watch him all day because I worked for 14 hours. This was Day #1 of SEP conferences.

Max's first Wendy's Frosty and feeling better in his turtle.
We are glad that he is getting better - we really missed our smiley man.
