Sickie at the Dr

That's it!  After a whole week of the snot and a cough that is getting worse, I put my foot down and took him in today.  It is always a tough call b/c without a fever normally they just send us home without any medicine and then I feel like I wasted all of our time by going!  Plus, Dr visits are always interesting when you have a toddler who doesn't like to sit still.  The waiting room is fine b/c they have plenty of toys, but once we make it back to the exam room its a free for all! 

Right before this paper is completely ripped to shreds

After that was destroyed, he wanted down.  So we are talking just diaper with shoes.  Luckily we didn't have to wait too long and he was entertained spinning the Dr's "swirly" round chair with a tiny piece of paper that he had previoulsy ripped off the bed placed on top of the chair. The game was to see how fast he could spin it around before the paper would fall off. 

The exam went well!  Not a tear from this tough guy.  All checked out well, but to my surprise and delight, he gave him some antibiotics and prescription cough syrup.  Dr. Mitchell said that the cold had become more of a sinus/bateria infection and he felt that a 10 day dose of antibiotics was needed.  So then it was off to CVS where we always have to wait at least 30 min.  Fun times!!  Oh and let me add that when we got home from CVS, they forgot the cough syrup.  ROAR!
