Wesley is sick, the good news and the bad news...

The Good News: His ears are NOT infected (YEA!)

The Bad News: He has a sinus infection and has to take cefdinir, a rather expensive antibiotic ($130 a bottle). At least it is oral and Welsy has had it before so no worries there. Oral beats injections!

Fortunately, Wesley is great with taking his antibiotics. He has had plenty of practice. The pharmaceutical companies must make them taste really good because he just LOVES taking medicine. Wesley just sees the dropper coming his way and he opens right up, sometimes he even smiles! Wesley has also had some *ahem* digestive issues the past few days. When we weighed him at the doctor's office today, his weight was down to 18 pounds 3 ounces. I hate it when he loses weight, even if it is a sickness thing.
