Last week was a rough one at our house. Sawyer had been crabbier then usual and not sleeping well at all which meant not much sleep for mom and dad. Tuesday night I came home from work at 2am and found both Sawyer and Dustin up and was greeted with a Hellwo, lol. I was hoping to get to bed myself because I had to be at the oral surgeon Wednesday morning at 10am, more on that later.
So I sent Dustin to bed and tried to settle on the couch with Sawyer. My poor lil man could not get comfortable. He would fall asleep and was so restless and would cry out. Finally at 4am this Mama had enough. I woke Dustin up and told him I was taking Sawyer to the ER, because something was wrong.
So we loaded up into the car and off to Covenant we went. Thankfully when we got there they were not busy and we got right in. They checked us in and put us in a room to wait for the doctor. Of course by this time Sawyer is acting fine and running around the room pushing a chair. Dr. Roeff came to check Sawyer out. I love this man! We have seen him before at Covenant ER and he is great. I held Sawyer while Dr. Roeff checked him over. As I suspected, ear infection. This is our second one in 2 months. He said the left ear was worse then the right. He gave us a prescription for Zithromax and some ear drops which help with pain. We came home and finally at 6am we were all back in bed.
9am Dustin woke me up because I had to be in Waterloo at 10am to see Dr. Lenth, the oral surgeon. Ugh only 3 hours of sleep. I showered and got ready. I was seeing Dr. Lenth because of a lump on the inside of my left lower cheek. He numbed me all up and removed it. Now I have stitches and they have been quite annoying! Thankfully I was able to come home and take a 2 hour nap, 5 hours of sleep and off to work I go!
Thursday I woke up and wasn't feeling very well. Sore throat and sinus pressure along with a sore mouth = not a fun day. I went to work and pulled through. 2am and it's time for bed. Woke up Friday and was feeling worse. So I called and got into the doctor. Diagnosis, sinus infection and ear infection. Now 2 of the 3 of us is on an antibiotic. Came home and knew work was not going to happen. Called in and went straight to bed. 5 hours later at 9pm I woke up to eat, take another antibiotic and back to bed. Sleep was wonderful and much needed for this Mama.
Hoping this week is less hectic and a little more sleep will be had by all! Oh and on another note Sawyer's new favorite word is NO. I have heard it all weekend. No, No Mama, lol. :)
