I am grateful that The Daddy was off work this week for President’s Week. Tater Tot is sick. Pretty darned sick. Sick enough to warrant a trip to the doc where we found out that she has an ear infection. That doesn’t sound bad, does it? Well, it’s obvious that whatever is infecting her ears is also infecting her chest because she has been up hacking and snorking most of the night since Sunday with a fever between 100 and 102. So I’ve been up giving her Tylenol and “rocking and shnuggling” to get her back to sleep. The Daddy took a turn last night so I was able to get a little bit more sleep. She’s on her second day of antibiotic and the diarrhea has begun. Not fun. She’s never been this sick before. But she’s starting to get a little more pep back in her step today so I think she’s turned the corner. I’ll tell you, though, we have broken just about every routine we have this week and I’m curious to see what it’ll be like when she’s not sick anymore and we go back to the regular routine. At least then I will have more sleep which hopefully will equal more energy to deal with the inevitable tantrums when I don’t let her follow the loosey-goosey routine we’ve had this week.

That’s it. That’s all I’ve got. Creative juices have dried up so all you get is the report of what’s been going on in the world of Princess Tater Tot and The Mommy. Sorry.
