Under the Weather

Our poor little guy has been under the weather for nearly 4 weeks now! He has had 3 ear infections in 4 weeks and just last Monday they put him on a stronger antibiotic. As a result of this stronger antibiotic Noah has had a reaction to the medication; he has had 5 to 7 BM's a day for the last week which has in turn caused an infection on his bum; poor guy! For the most part he is still in a good mood, but due to his infection on his bum he hasn't wanted to sit or get his diaper change, so in the last week Noah has really become good standing by himself and walking with a little help from his walker (take a peek at the video under J's twitter on the bottom of our blog). It makes you wonder about these antibiotics, is it really suppose to "clear" up one thing and then cause something else? I'm not going to be one of those parents that doesn't give any medication, but I must say that it does make you think twice about it.

Since he has had these symptoms he has blown through many sets of clothes at daycare including the various extra clothes that we bring to daycare for him. This typically results in Noah coming home in some random little outfits that come from the daycare donor clothes pile. Tonight was no different, I had to laugh at what he came home in tonight! It kind of looks like something you'd see in the movie Beetle Juice, see below for yourself! The infection has caused some sores; but all in all we are hopefully that Noah is on the road to recovery...just in time for my brother's & soon to be sister in law's wedding weekend!
