Henry's sick again. Double ear infection. Wheezing. It's a good thing he likes taking medicine through a syringe because he's been doing it a lot lately. Also, we've been to the doctor's so often lately, that he now starts to cry in the parking lot as opposed to in the hallway that leads to the examination rooms. Despite his unhappiness at being there, he's always very polite, sobbing out a "bye-bye" as nurses and doctors come and go.

No one got much sleep last night, least of all Dave because he got up early to try and make a doctor's appointment for Henry. I think we'll be looking at an early nap time for a lot of people today. Henry especially needs the rest. One look at him and you can immediately tell how exhausted he is. He was up and down every half hour to hour starting around 1AM, and finally at 4:30 he was so frustrated and exhausted that neither Dave nor I was any kind of comfort to him. Dave suggested perhaps it would be best to let him cry out his frustration a bit, and sure enough after two minutes of crying and general moaning and groaning he was fast asleep. It was difficult to do that because I desperately wanted to help him feel better, so I'm grateful that Dave was thinking clearly enough to suggest that.

Anyway, here's hoping he sleeps well this afternoon and starts feeling better soon.
