It's probably best he won't remember this one...

Well, we have survived Matteo's first Christmas, and I do mean survive. It has been a crazy week!

Saturday night, Matteo felt a little warm. By Sunday he had a full blown fever with chest conjestion and cough! So much fun! Then, after Christmas with the ENTIRE Sifuentes clan (and I do mean entire) on Sunday, Christmas Eve with the immediate Sifuentes clan, and Christmas morning with the Hickey clan, the poor little guy was beat. We took his temp Christmas night and it was 101.5!

Well, that was it. I grabbed the phone and made my first ever sick call to the doctor's office. The nurse was very nice, and assured us that we were doing everything right, but should probably get him in to be checked out the next day. So, the next day we headed out to the doctor's office.

A quick exam, and a slight ear infection later, a prescribtion for amoxicylian was just what the doctor ordered.

We had his 6 month well visit on Friday. Diagnosis: the ear infection is clearing up, the chest congestion is breaking up and there's no fever. Great, so what do they do then...of course...give him his set of 6 month vaccines! Can't this poor little guy catch a break!!
