While taking our daily photo, I must have spun Lily around one to many times as she gave back some of her dinner.
Revenge of the ear infection.
Last week Lily’s ear infection came back. If it wasn’t bad enough to have it once, now we had it twice. We aren’t exactly sure it went away in the first place.
