Update on Ansley

Little Ans had to go to the doctor today. She had a rough weekend :( We found out she has another ear infection (#4) this time in her left ear. I feel so sorry for her but she is really a trooper and you would not really know it by her energy and easy temperament. We go back for a re-check on her ear in 10 days. If the infection is not cleared up or if she has another infection in the next two months they will refer us to an ENT to put tubes in her ears. Tubes seem so common these days but they sound much better to me than continuing to give her antibiotics. Thankfully, we have two good friends who have given us great referrals to ENT doctors. The good part of going to the doctor is that we get to see how much Miss Ansley weighs again. We had her 9 month checkup 11 days ago and she weighed 18 1/2 lbs. and today she weighed 19 lbs. 2 oz. I can't believe she gained 10 oz. in 11 days! I guess she is having a growth spurt! We are so thankful for a great pediatrician and that despite teething, a runny nose, and an ear infection our sweet girl is all smiles these days! :)
