Itchy Itchy Scratchy Scratchy

I took my little man to the doctor today because he has been tugging at his right ear. That is the ear that had the infection the other week, so I thought maybe his infection either didn't go away, or it's back....Luckily there is NO infection! His ears are completely clear (the doctor let me look in them with the scope thing...pretty cool!) except for a minute amount of wax. When I saw the wax I started to get worried that it was taking over his whole entire inner ear, but she looked at me funny and said it was because i was looking at it through a scope - DUH!! Hee Hee

Anyway, the reason he is pulling (the doctor thinks) is because there is dry skin behind his ears. She said it was eczema, but I don't see anything at all. She said to put hydro cortisone on it, but I have some Eucerin here that I will try instead. If it doesn't work, then I will put on the hydro cortisone.

She also said his top four teeth are "bulging" and will pop through any day now - which could be causing him discomfort - yah think!??! Poor little guy! It was bad enough when his two bottom teeth were coming in, but four at a time on the top? I am surprised he isn't just a grumpy gus all day....the only time he is really grumpy is at bedtime, but that is just completely normal.

Today at daycare for lunch Dane had a soft shell chicken taco!! The ladies said he LOVED re fried beans, so I went to Target today to buy some and a big bottle of gas drops...hahah!
