Not an ear infection...but maybe

Okay, so her doctor said there is fluid in one ear, however the ear drum itself doesn't look infected. Of course every time we take her in and we get this diagnosis...within a couple of days she has an ear infection. We'll see if she can pull through this without one. He believes she has a cold...I believe she caught it from her dear daddy. Justin has been feeling terrible and to compound the problem, he is playing tennis the entire weekend. I guess with sheer determination to win, even being sick can't keep him down. Makena on the other hand is just miserable. Her nose won't stop running, her face is blotchy, fever off and on and she has this really sad "I don't feel good cry" going. She however is a trooper! She still flashes you the most precious toothless smile that would melt your heart.

So how are we sleeping these days?? ROUGH! Kena is up at least 2-3 times a night and if I go to her, I forget about her going back to sleep for hours. I monitor her cry to make sure its not a hurting cry and I just have to let her cry herself back to sleep. She is not interested in being rocked or cuddled with unless you are standing and walking the floor with her. I can rock her in my sleep, but I can't walk in my sleep. I keep telling myself..."this too shall pass."

We finally got our camera from Aunt Cassie's house. Here are some pics that are a week old, but better late then never.



Look at her on her knees chowing down on COLD cantaloupe.

I bet it feels good on her gums

"I LOVE TINA!!!"
