Delaney was nine months today.  She didn’t, however, find it much of a day for celebrating.  After a week of coughing and congestion, as well as a very bad morning, today, we took her into the doctor’s office for a quick check before heading into the weekend.  As it turns out, she ‘almost’ has an ear infection.  She is at the tipping point—another day and she could have a full blown infection, but if she is able to fight it off, it may never materialize.  The doctor said if she seemed uncomfortable or fussy that it would be fine to give her some relief with Tylenol or Motrin.  Needless to say, she went to bed tonight with the maximum dose for her slim little frame.  Sweet D, we do hope you sleep well and feel better tomorrow!
