Dirt and Juice

Sunday, November 15, 2009

Last night was a bad night for Angelo.  I wasn't sure at the time what was going on.  Before I went to bed at 11pm, he had already woken up 4 times crying for mommy.  Rudy came home from Rob's and it just continued from there.  I asked him what was wrong and he just said his ear hurt.  Well, at 2:30am, Rudy finally just brought him down to our bed.  No help.  He just wimpered for another hour and a half.  I took his temperature, but no fever.  I gave him some antibiotics that he had left over from his last ear infection and then back to our bed.  Finally he told me 'crib'.  So back upstairs we went.  I think the last time we talked to him was around 5:30am.  After that he finally fell asleep and so did mommy and daddy! 

When we finally all got up around 10 (Lola was up way before, but this mommy didn't hear her!), I asked Angelo if he remembered what was wrong and he told me, "Ya, I got dirt and juice in my ear!"  So, I finally look into his ear and he's kinda right.  The outside was a little crusty, (the dirt) and the inside was wet with drainage, (the juice).  I thought it was pretty funny.  He actually was telling me what was wrong in his own 2 year old language.  Gotta love these kids! 

We ended up going to breakfast at Central Market and meeting Rocco up there to play.  Those boys played HARD for a good hour and a half.  They have the best time with each other.  They get so excited!  Precious!
