Another work week has come to an end. E had doctor’s appointments on Thursday. Her pediatrician diagnosed an upper respiratory infection and we are back on an antibiotic. On the upside, she weighs 24.5 pounds. She gained a pound in two weeks. That afternoon she revisited the ENT. Her ears are healing fine, but her hearing is not where they would like it to be. We will have to watch her closely. She has a follow-up appointment in 6 months.
Friday night, she must have had a stomach bug. I had forgotten what kid puke is like. It happened right at bedtime. She projectile vomited all over momma, the bed and the floor. Daddy cleaned up the floor and the bed, while I got in the shower with E.
She woke up Saturday fine. We left the house to get our haircut. On the way there, I could smell puke. Sure enough, it was all over E and the car seat. We had to stop and clean her up. Nothing like a puked covered kid and car seat on a hot summer day. Needless to say, we did not get our hair done.
Sunday E has been able to keep everything done. It looks like it is just a 24 hour bug. E is currently napping. We will see if our luck holds out.

Catching Up...
It’s been a few days since I had a moment to document E’s day. Last Friday, E had tubes done. I was amazed at how quickly the procedure was done. She had a 9:30 surgery time. She went back to the operating room at 9:20 and we were able to take her home at 9:40. She did really well. We stopped by Chick-Fil-A, the Cow Place, to get E breakfast and we were home by 10:30. She was up playing by 4:00. She’s such a trooper.
Saturday, E and I went shopping for DH an anniversary gift. We went to the Mall for a few hours. We ended up getting daddy clothes.
Sunday, we went to church. We let E come to service with us instead of the nursery. Hey, she just had surgery. E and I ended up leaving about 10 minutes before it was over. She wanted crackers. I have a thing about letting her eat during service.
Monday, we took a mental health day from work and daycare. We stayed home all day. By the way, nothing got accomplished as we spent the day just relaxing.
Today it was back to work and daycare. Poor E has been coughing most of the day. I’m a little concerned that it is more than a cold or drainage. We will have to wait and see. It is starting to get unbearably hot. All the activities for the daycare are happening in the morning while it is still cool. This is explains why water play is at 9:00.
Tomorrow the daycare makes Father’s Day gifts. I’ve been trying to teach E to say “Happy Father’s Day!” as part of her gift to daddy. She can say all the words, but can’t put the phrase together. I’ve got 4 more days to get this done.
That sums up the past few days. I’ll try to update tomorrow.

The Park and BAM
It’s Saturday and we are at six days and counting until EB’s surgery. I took EB to the ENT’s office yesterday to be fitted for ear plugs. She ended up having a meltdown when the audiologist tried to fit her. This is just a preview of what is to come with the hearing tests after the surgery. After the trip to the ENT’s, it was off to the hospital to sign paperwork. I was able to get the pre-certification done over the phone, but they insist that you sign this paperwork before the surgery.
Today we took EB to the park today to ride the Train. She loved it. I was so afraid she would freak, but no. A huge smile and waved to people as we passed them. Anytime she claps when something ends means she has blessed it. After the train, she played on the slides and swings.
After that, it was off to BAM for new books. Once a month, we try to take her to get a couple new books. I think it is more for us than her. How many times can you read the same book before you go crazy? She loves that place. The associate was amazed at her pulling the books of the shelf one at a time and sitting on the floor looking at them
Once we got home, we decided to air out EB’s diaper rash. She is absolutely raw. We are now trying Triple Paste. Let’s hope this works.
At the moment, hubby is trying to get her to sleep, but not having much luck. I’m afraid to go relieve him as they have gotten too quiet. Let’s hope she will go to sleep for him, because at this point, I’m ready for bed myself.

Camo Anyone....
Today was “Camo” day at the daycare. I’m beginning to think I am one of the only parents that takes the time to read the take home papers. Today was the 4th theme day and again there were only a few kids in the class to participate. EB is such a cutie. I’m going to try to upload the only picture I got later.

First Day in the Toddler Room
Today was EB’s first day in the Toddler room. We now drop off in the sunroom. The only problem is I have to walk through the sunroom to get to her room to sign her in and then walk back through to leave. It was not a good day. EB was not happy when I left.
On the brighter side, today was pajama day. EB wore a cute little purple pj short set and reindeer slippers! Tomorrow is “Mix and Match” Day. Can’t wait to see what the kids look like.
