you've got to be kidding me

so talan and i were just released from the hospital yesterday. i made his follow up appointment for thursday and rescheduled my dr. appointment for friday. which meant we'd end up at the dr. every day this week except for today.
last nite, hayden kept getting out of bed with a different excuse each time. this morning he climbed into our bed and said his ears hurt which was one of the excuses he has last nite. my mom had told me that he woke up yesterday morning and his eye was a little puffy and had a little junk coming from it, but nothing major. so, as he's telling me his ear hurts i'm realizing he most likely has another ear infection. does this mean i have to go to the dr. today as well?!?!
hayden has had to go to the dr. for non check up related issues maybe 3 or 4 times in his life. so the fact that he has now had 2 ear infections in a month is just insane to me. maybe he was jealous that talan was getting so much dr. attention. maybe he's trying to do his part in spending as much insurance money as he can. it's sweet of him, but i would rather he do it when we weren't already surrounded in sickness.
so i call and talk to the nurse to ask her if i should bring hayden in today since i'm coming in tomorrow with talan. she said it was up to me and that it was more a matter of the comfort factor than anything else. she told me i could give hayden some tylenol to help with the pain and just bring him in tomorrow. so that's what i plan on doing. at least i'll have 1 dr. free day this week.
he actually just ended up throwing up about 1/2 hour ago as well. but the nurse had said that many times nausea is a symptom of an ear infection as well.
welcome to being a mother of 2 i guess, huh?!
