Well, Hana got Mommy's cold. First the cough, then sneezes and congestion. And since she is a baby and does not know how to blow her nose, all of the mucus builds up in her inner ear. And so on Monday night at 3am our little baby woke up screaming, "Ear! nigh nigh, ear, waaaaaaah!" and continued to scream until 6am when the sun came up, and then she yelled, "dinner. hungy. eat. oatmeal." As the morning went on it was clear that Hana was still very sick and unhappy, and she had a temperature in one ear but not the other. So we went to the doctor and Hana has her first ear infection, but only in the ear with the temperature. She has to take Amoxicillin twice a day for 10 days. And of course, she hates taking it. Not the medicine, she just hates the medicine spoon. So this morning Mommy had a great idea, and we mixed it into some vanilla yogurt. Hurray! Delicious medicine. No screaming or running away.
