On a typical day Taylor is usually very content, happy, pretty patient and takes good naps. Well, for about the past week this has not been her. Last Wednesday night she woke up with a mild fever nothing a little tylenol didn't help. She continued to be a little warm Thursday and that night was probably the worst and longest night ever! She woke up about 10:30 just screaming and again a little too warm. The screams pretty much continued until about 4! I took her until 2 and then I went in and told Troy I couldn't take any more. He had her for the next 2 hours. She was fine when I was holding her but the minute I would lay her down she would wake up and scream. I decided I can sleep on the couch with her-no problem. Except for the little detail of me SITTING DOWN! She once again would scream. I pretty much was pacing the squeaky floors of our home for about 3 hours! Friday/Saturday was a "High-school friend" get together in Logan that my friends and I do every few months to stay in touch. She was not her self. Once again she constantly cried-more like screamed most of the time!! Her naps are not continuous-I have to go in about 2-3 times in an hour to hour and a half span and just hold her for a while. Her nap on Sunday was with me laying akwardly on my shoulder while I try myself to get some sleep! :) Monday morning I have had enough. At first I thought it was teething or some gas (went a few days with "nothing" ) but nothing I would do was helping. I couldn't get any thing done with out her screaming and I desperately needed to get things done for my "Bow-tique." I told Troy when he was home for lunch I was going to take her to see Ann Cueva (Eve. Medical clinic) which next to Dr. Klett is his choice of medical advise. The clinic opened at 5:30 and we showed up at 5:38. I walk into a line that I end up waiting in for 40 minutes-just to check in! Once every thing is said and done-Taylor screaming during examination she is diagnosed with a severe ear infection in one ear and a mild one in the other. My poor baby has been sick for almost a week and I barely take her in! I should have listened to my sister Friday morning and get her checked before I went to Logan! She in now on an antibiotic and has some drops to help "numb" the pain. She woke up twice last night to eat-I don't blame her she wouldn't eat most of yesterday! She also slept in until 8!! Yeah!! Hopefully she will feel better real soon!

Oh, poor girl! I'm glad to hear she's feeling better, but I bet you're just relieved!
Poor girl??? What about poor Dad? That little stink butt needs to start sleeping through the night again.
