Alice doesn't feel so well...

Tonight, Alice started feeling sick. She wanted to be held, and kept wanting to go nite-nite, at 6:30. We tried feeding her dinner, but she really wasn't interested. She sat slumped in her chair watching Totoro - ocasionally perking up at certain parts of the show, but ate nothing. We gave her some tylenol and took her temp, and yep...it was 101.6 :-(
She sat on her dad's lap for a while, looking very pitiful until it was finally bedtime.
It's bittersweet cuddle time.

More "sick" but cute pics

Alice has been sick (again) lately. At first, we thought Alice was teething, turns out she had an ear infection. This last time she had a double ear infection, pink eye AND a cold....poor baby. Of course, she got Dad sick too :-\ There has been some "talk" about possible tubes in the ears if the rate of ear infections keeps up. We'll wait and see and hope she grows out of it.
Below are some pics from the past few weeks.

I'm feeling better now, I think I'll go for a walk

Alice has been sick for the past couple of weeks. First she had a small ear infection in the left... that went away when on its heels came a worse infection in the other ear... ouch. Anti-Biotic twice a day. She doesn't like the taste of it, spits it out. We have to sneak it in while she's taking her bottle: 1.) Start feeding baby, 2.) Wait until baby is in the feeding zone (eyes half closed, blissed out), 3.) remove bottle from mouth, 4.) administer medicine, 5.) replace bottle before she realizes what has happened. Repeat until the whole dose is taken.

She has started feeling better. Appetite is better and crying in pain is gone (thankfully). We're hoping we can return to non-sick Alice routines soon. This was the first Alice sickness that we all experienced... Wow, that was really hard, on all of us.
