Alex woke up shortly after bedtime complaining that her ear hurt. I gave her some Advil. She was very distressed that the medicine didn't make it better right away, and I wound up rocking her to sleep.

At 1am, she woke up again crying in pain. I held her while Michael searched the house for the elusive Tylenol bottle - it wasn't time to take Advil again yet. After a dose she settled down and fell asleep in my arms again.

So, bright and early this morning I was up calling the pediatrician's sick child hotline. Then Alex woke up reasonably cheerful and active, and as she grinned and flirted her way through the medical exam I prepared to make my embarrassed excuses to the nurse practitioner.

Nope. Both ears are badly infected, and she requires antibiotics.

Did this have to happen on the last weekend before we move?

Well, if she feels good enough to sleep, maybe moving will be easier. I hope everything goes well!
