What a Week!

Don't you love the drool!

Man, what a week this has been. It started out absolutely fantastic. I placed some items on Craigslist and sold 2 things within 4 hours, cha-ching! Ryan has to take another item to this guy tomorrow. Then I decided to be a better mom and take Drew on walks more. I stopped going to the gym because Ryan changed his work schedule and I don't really want to get up at 5:30 in the morning to work out, and I am now tutoring in the afternoon Monday - Wednesday. So, we live right by the canal that runs through Gilbert and they have a nice walk way that leads to the McQueen Center and a few playgrounds. They also have a pond you can walk around and ducks you can feed. So after scouting it all out on Monday, I took Drew to the playground on Wednesday to play. He had so much fun and didn't want to leave. It was really windy and cold so we only let him play for 15 min. I know we are cruel parents but it felt like 50 degrees, seriously with that nasty wind. I hope to continue going on walks every week. It was nice that Ryan came with us on Wednesday.

Drew was rocking the car back and forth and making AH AH noises, that's why his mouth is opened.

Last week Drew got his first muler and has 2 more coming in and 2 more regular teeth coming in also. Poor little man. He is contant drool all day. He has been struggling to sleep early on in the week but once we got the orajel out, we has been doing really well....UNTIL last night in the bath, Drew started to rub his ears. I thought to myself, OH NO! Please don't have that nasty ear infection still. Well, today we had our follow up appointment with our fantastic pediatrician, Dr. Hall, and my worst fear came true. His double ear infection was still there. It probably did go away last week but once he finished his medicine it came back with a punch. Dr. Hall said he had puss and his right hear was close to popping. My poor sweet boy! Then she brought me to reality because Drew basically has had an ear infection on and off since October. October, I forgot it was in October. I thought it was in November. Dang it! So now we have to go and see a Ear, Nose, and Throat Doctor and probably get tubes. Ya, I know it is quite a common thing in little kids these days but I about cried when I got to the car. I didn't want to put Drew through a surgery. I know it is very mild, but it is still surgery. So if any knows a good Ear, Nose, Throat DR. let me know. The one my brother went to just retired and the one my pediatrician normally recommends just dropped United, so I have 3 back ups but would rather go with someone that has been highly recommended! But now Drew is on some heavy medicine and hopfully next week will start out great and end even better!

Drew loves being in his diaper and his new fad is rolling around on the floor, in place.

Look at his tears. He always gets mad when our walk is over.
