And then God Laughed.

So just as I was proclaiming my membership in the Secret Bottle Society, Sam got a double ear infection. I was really concerned. This makes three ear infections in two months. The kid had ZERO ear infections until his 2nd birthday...now he's had three. I asked the pediatrician what could POSSIBLY be causing this...she barely looked up from behind "the chart".

"Do you still give him a bottle?"

I started sweating, "Mmmmaybe" but I was really thinking "are you reading my blog?"

"Does he take one to bed?"

I looked at Andy..."he might."

"That's it. He's laying down at night with a bottle...it makes it worse."

I looked over at Andy who mouthed the word "darn" only it wasn't "darn". Our sacred crutch.

Fine, we shall start weening...whatever. I'm not bitter.
