Little Ellie is 5 weeks old (though she is the size of an 11 week old according to our book about newborns). This has been a hard week for her. After a visit to Dr. Ellison, we found out that she weighs 11 lbs 1 oz and is in the 90% for her weight. As Dr. Ellison said "she is growing like a champ." But our big little baby has an ear infection and a cough/cold with a bad runny nose. It is so sad for someone so little to be sick. It is also sad when she passes her sickness to both of her parents who are trying so hard to take care of her :)
Oh well, this too shall pass! I will spare you the details of how I tried to take her temperature - just as I got the thermometer in place, she went to the bathroom in an effort to sabotage my efforts at getting an accurate temp!
