When it Rains, it Pours

I took Ollie back into the doctors yesterday to have his cough checked out. He lost his fever Friday, but still had the cough and stuffiness, making it extremely difficult for him to breath at night. He slept most of Saturday and Sunday. Monday, he was mostly back to his normal self, at least as far as up time goes. But he was still coughing and stuffy. We went to see his doctor and his x-ray from last Thursday revealed he had Bronchillitis and on top of it he had started to develop a small ear infection. JOY. So he's on antibiotics and a nebulizer to help him breath. At least he is acting like his old self. I hope this is the last of it for awhile. My wish for X-mas is that he is well.

Even though he has been sick, he's become better at crawling. He can go small distances without stumbling. Of course he has to investigate everything. We baby-proofed the plugs this weekend in preparation. I'm sure we'll do the doors when we get back from our trip. We'll have to get baby gates as well. He'll be an expert at crawling when we get back. What a present!
