Well, Katherine did not sleep well at all last night. She coughed a lot and seemed to keep her temperature even with medicine. I did make it to work by 6 this morning. Paul decided to take her to the doctor to see what is going on. He dropped Luke off at school and was at the pediatrician when they opened. Turns out Katherine has a double ear infection! Poor girl! She has not done anything that made us think her ears were bothering her. Apparently the left ear is quite a bit worse than the right. So, she has started a 10-day course of antibiotics. It has actually been almost a year since she had the horrible ear infection. We are hoping the Amoxicillin will knock it out and that will be the end of it. I ended up leaving work around 2 to go pick her up. She was asleep on Paula when I got there. She said she had been great. She took several naps and played some. Her appetite has been poor since the weekend. I am hoping it picks it up soon.
We stopped and picked Luke up on the way home. Katherine wanted down to play when we got to school and was acting more like herself. When we got home she "helped" me do the laundry. She took the clothes out of the dirty pile and put them in the washer. We have very similar pictures of Luke doing the same thing at this age. I talk about it all the time but Katherine is such a sweet, mild mannered little girl. Even though she has not felt good she does not whine. She just wants to be held and cuddled more.
