Now just need a spoonful of sugar

Audrey's been fighting a cold for several days, and it seemed to have moved to her ears. This often happens when she gets sick -- making her temporarily hard-of-hearing for a few days -- but this time it caused her more pain than usual. A trip to the doctor this afternoon confirmed an ear infection, for which an antibiotic was prescribed. It's the first time either Audrey or Kate has been prescribed medicine to fight an illness. They've taken lots of over-the-counter children's Advil and Tylenol over the years for all manner of sniffles, aches, and fevers. They also take a prescription fluoride pill. But this is the first time an illness has required calling in the pharmaceutical heavy artillery.
