sick, sick, sick-

Warning: This post is one big pity party. But here goes:
Most people tend to forget how awful a cold is until you have one. McKenzie and I have both been struggling with a really bad cold for quite some time now. It is seriously the worst cold I can remember ever having. It is definitely the worst one McKenzie has ever had! And just when we thought it couldn't get any worse, it did. She was diagnosed with a double ear infection today. Wow. She has never had an ear infection in all her two little years. Well thankfully they gave her antibiotics today, and then I pumped her with Ibuprofen. Before she fell asleep she said, "Mommy I am not sick anymore." Very cute, but all I could think was "just wait until a couple of hours from now when you wake up crying again in agony." Lets hope we get some sleep tonight. Between the two of us coughing and being congested, nobody has been getting any real sleep lately.
Did I mention I have the best husband ever?! He has been a great help and has done a really good job at playing Dr. for the both of us. Luckily he has not become sick. We are grateful for that. We are also grateful for medicine!
