Ear Infection...

So, for the past few days I've been coughing with a sore throat. I knew it was mostly allergies, so I've been ignoring it. All of us are suffering with seasonal allergies right now. Jamie started sounding really bad yesterday and last night I could hear him moaning in his bed. He ended up coming and getting in the bed with me while Tom was in the shower, saying his ear hurt. Ut-Oh. I'm SUPER FREAKY about ear stuff. I had (literally) hundreds of ear infections as a child. So, I kept him home today and Tom took him to the doctor. The doctor said all the gunk in his lungs and nose is from allergies, but it looks like it's backed up into his little ears. She said there were actual BLISTERS in his ears from it. :( Poor little guy! He's not contagious so he can go to school tomorrow. So, he's got antibiotics... poor Jamie.
