Ramblings of a Tired Mama

Abby has her first full-blown cold. It's not surprising with all the traveling we did last week. The poor thing is just miserable. I took her to the doctor yesterday, and she has the beginnings of an ear infection in her right ear, so she's now on amoxicillin. Apparently, she has her mother's love of the yummy pink stuff because she sucked her first dose down like it was going out of style. When it was all gone she looked at the bottle like "GIVE ME MORE!!"

She looks awful. Her nose is running like a leaky faucet, and she's drooling like crazy because she can only breathe through her mouth. Even her eyes are soaked with tears. Her whole face is puffy and blotchy. When she coughs, she lets out this sad little cry because it hurts so much. It breaks my heart every time I hear it. She's had it since Monday, so hopefully this is the worst of it.

I wrote this post yesterday, but blogger wouldn't let me post it. She looks so much better this morning. She's still not 100 percent, but she's definitely on the mend. Yesterday was definitely the worst day.
