The next morning his temperature was gone, but he had his 18 month check up so we headed to the doctor's office. The doctor was going through the regular check up and I expected him to say everything looked good. I was surprised when he said that Conrad had an ear infection. I think he has a huge pain tolerance from falling down and running into stuff because he hadn't given me any signs that his ear had been hurting. He had been running around happy all morning.
I thought giving him the medicine would be a breeze because Ashlee always talked about how much she loves it. When Kelsie and Abby would get an ear infection she would sneak some of their medicine! We weren't so lucky. He just screamed the whole time and I had to force it in his mouth. I wasn't sure if I would be able to do this 19 more times. I tried mixing it in with milk. It worked once, but then our luck ran out. He inspects all his drinks now to make sure there is no sign of pink! Luckily, Ransom thought of mixing it in with his strawberry yogurt and it seems to be working! -Katie

When Charles was little, he refused to take his medicine too, a screaming fit he would have! We had to hold him down and make him swallow it. He wouldn't take it any other way. Good thing he was a healthy baby! Hope Conrad is feeling better now. Love you Katie
