8 months old and an update

So we have had a crazy week! Last Thursday Eric had his tear duct surgery, He did great with the surgery and it was super quick. The anesthesia made him throw up a little bit and he was very tired throughout the day. Thursday night he started running really high fevers and friday morning he would not eat at all. I took him to the doctor and his ear infections were worse and he had ulcers in his throat from hand foot and mouth disease. (a virus)
So poor dude could not even swallow his own spit. It was pitiful. I had to feed him from a medicine dropper all day. They gave him a shot of a very strong antibiotic for his ears since none of the 3 prescriptions we have tried have worked. He went to the doctor again on Monday and the ear infections are still there but looking a little better so they gave him another shot of the same antibiotic. We go back to the doctor today at 2:20 to see if there has been any further progress. If the ears are still infected we are headed to an ENT to talk about tubes. We are going on week 9 of ear infections and it has to stop somewhere.
He is feeling so much better the last couple of days. He is eating a ton and crawling all over the place. It is so nice to see him acting like his happy little self again! Its so heart breaking when they are sick and he tries so hard to be happy and smile even when he feels like poo.

He is a crazy kid now. He is into EVERYTHING and pulling up on things and I am a nervous wreck! I can not take my eyes off of him. I am going to have to invest in some baby gates because the child follows me everywhere. Gone are the days of putting him in his room to play and him staying there until I come to get him....

Here are a few pictures. He is getting so big so fast.

Monday at the doc he was 20.2 lbs. down 2oz because hes been sick
