Reid has been sick since December 17! He has been on antibiotics four times and had to take a steriod for his lungs. He was diagnosed with RSV. It's a respiratory virus that hits babies pretty hard. Reid is "at risk" because he goes to daycare :( and I work with little kids. The RSV was like a really bad cold for him. He also got ear infections and bronchiolitis from it. Reid is finally sleeping for more than 2 hours straight at night and is back to playing with everything! For a while there he didn't want to do anything but snuggle. He goes back to the doctor tomorrow to see how his ear infections are doing. Rudd and I hope there is not an infection still. It is hard to get Reid to take his medicine. After over a month of medicine, he is tired of us trying to get it down his throat.
I wrote the post above about two weeks ago, and I am happy to report that Reid is doing great. His ear infections are all cleared up and he is sleeping through the night. Rudd and I never thought that day would come! Reid is playing with his toys, walking around the house and laughing and smiling.

Yeah!!!!
Yeah that Reid is feeling better. And yeah, that I finally get to read something about what's going on in your house :)
And just to be clear...Reid didn't get RSV because he goes to daycare OR because you work with little kids. He could have just as easily picked it up from a shopping cart. Just to be clear, you're still the best mom around!
Hope you had a restful three-dayer :)
