The Road to Recovery is a Slippery Slope

Just when we thought the Lynch Household was on the mend, Ella Catherine had a relapse. We really thought we had licked the cold and ear infection but on our trip to Georgia her congestion got worse. We had the Pediatrician call in a stronger decongestant and we thought it was working until Saturday. Saturday she was definitely more congested and started to have discharge from her eyes. By the ride home Sunday, her eyes were a lot worse and we knew we were headed back to the Pediatrician Monday morning. She has bilateral ear infections and was prescribed a stronger antibiotic. She may look just like Matt but I've always said she had my ears. And it appears I was right, well atleast the inside of her ears are taking after me. I had ear infections for the first 18 months-2 years of my life until I got ET tubes. Let's hope this is not Ella Catherine's fate.
On a more fun note! We had a FANTASTIC Thanksgiving in Georgia. Matt, Jeff and my dad stayed out at the cabin most of the time. They deer hunted, duck hunted, crow hunted and fished a little. Matt got 2 does and a duck and Jeff got 1 buck and 1 duck. A good time was had by all! We had lunch at Kelly's house on Wednesday. Thursday after our Thanksgiving lunch and Ella Catherine's nap we went over to visit with Robin, Hutch, Skylar, Sidney and Sophie. Ella Catherine enjoyed playing with the girls and Sidney gave her a hug and kiss when we left. It was REALLY cute! The rest of the trip we either hung out at the House or the cabin with the guys. It was a nice relaxing vacation. I'll post some pictures soon.
