Ella is talking up a storm and we lose ourselves sometimes in the time that flies by. It's hard to believe that she's going to be 2 in August!! </div><div><br /></div><div>Dan and I survived our 30th birthdays. We actually got to get out while Grandma and Grandpa babysat. We had a wonderful, long dinner at Rick's Prime Rib and then followed the evening with a little bowling. We used to love to go bowling. And we had a great time just laughing at ourselves.</div><div><br /></div><div>Then at the end of May we went to Massachusetts to visit friends and Ella got to go to the beach for the first time, as seen here:</div><div><br /></div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGdjrppl-3zCoCJmbgkDT-wwRy0j0YoDLtKYlXndrwIQb5oiDIhYCjCNKLSllP7kX02RSqqazvg2Ksjtv9Yxp80hciQe0pAhnrzgE9ALVjDy9K54kHFH-jo_6ipf0YycGV3RkDd7wYKRU/s1600-h/100_4069.JPG"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 200px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 150px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5355885231326315682" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGdjrppl-3zCoCJmbgkDT-wwRy0j0YoDLtKYlXndrwIQb5oiDIhYCjCNKLSllP7kX02RSqqazvg2Ksjtv9Yxp80hciQe0pAhnrzgE9ALVjDy9K54kHFH-jo_6ipf0YycGV3RkDd7wYKRU/s200/100_4069.JPG" /></a><br /><br /></div><div><br /></div><div></div><div><br /></div><div><br /><br /></div><div><br /></div><div></div><div><br /></div><div><br />June was a busy month. Every weekend we had something planned and the month went by very quickly. This month Ella learned how to moonwalk. We still haven't caught it on video, but it's pretty darn cute. I know everyone is probably sick of hearing about Michael Jackson but I know that I was very sad. I grew up listening to his music and loving him like the rest of the world. I will make sure that Ella knows his music. She already claps her hands when she hears him :)</div><div><br /></div><div>July started out with the lack of a bang. Ella ended up with strep throat just before the holiday weekend. I spent all day with her Thursday because she woke up with a high fever. I took her to the doctor's in the afternoon and not long after she was on antibiotics. Here's her looking sick:<br /></div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBtpHomCzHrBnpgd6rNXoqsMk6bIb2Sc_CLsxDuzeCWC4rlZsefrZKsPzTZjqPPdgFf4qQp8mXUzBywDGftbEaeCjB95BHKgfjKLX9LrYFLehUYT38Cp5l34CTya-13N_yp6ejA8IgvHE/s1600-h/100_4124.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 200px; HEIGHT: 150px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5355887410575741250" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBtpHomCzHrBnpgd6rNXoqsMk6bIb2Sc_CLsxDuzeCWC4rlZsefrZKsPzTZjqPPdgFf4qQp8mXUzBywDGftbEaeCjB95BHKgfjKLX9LrYFLehUYT38Cp5l34CTya-13N_yp6ejA8IgvHE/s200/100_4124.JPG" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div></div><div>But by Friday afternoon her fever was gone and she was getting antsy. So she got to go visit Lollypop Farm to see the animals. On the 4th we went to my Dad's for a BBQ. Here she is in her new dress mommy bought her:</div><div><br /></div><div></div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgL4jwOT1tVkMx_Q0Dmm8Yx0jnHjJB1Bhsvmx32xt-WHnLGEkDvwUTSlKruegx8E4HbqUhFaJeI4yEYMxKy5ZGGdpqajlv8a5XNM80-4H9HN8rpa1PoCgPIIOcCTys_YL3DJa9Ti6FcPA8/s1600-h/100_4129.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 162px; HEIGHT: 219px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5355888824821030146" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgL4jwOT1tVkMx_Q0Dmm8Yx0jnHjJB1Bhsvmx32xt-WHnLGEkDvwUTSlKruegx8E4HbqUhFaJeI4yEYMxKy5ZGGdpqajlv8a5XNM80-4H9HN8rpa1PoCgPIIOcCTys_YL3DJa9Ti6FcPA8/s200/100_4129.JPG" /></a></div><div></div><div>She also had her first swim in Grandma and Grandpa's pool on Sunday. Those pictures are yet to come because the battery in my camera went dead. I have to get those pictures from others who were there with batteries that weren't dead :)</div><div> </div><div></div><div>Well that's all for now.

I swear this weekend Ella learned 10 new words. Well maybe she didn't learn them cold but she certainly had no problem repeating the things we said to her. Here are the things we say:<br /><br />Momma(given), DaDa(finally), Hi, Bye, Kitty, Bubble, Duck, Two, Clara(her friend), Elmo(but it comes out just 'Mo'), Night Night, Uh oh(over and over and over.......), No No, No No Kitty(apparently I yell at the cat a lot), Poke, Milk, More, Poop(great), Booby(even better), Shoes, Hat, Puppy(Pupa), Nose, Snow, Eye, Ball, and Tickle Tickle(a lot of these she says in two's).<br /><br />These are all I can think of right now but I can't help but laugh when she says some of them. She's just so darn cute.

But I guess that's nothing new. Last weekend was a really long weekend for me. I didn't have to go back to work until Wednesday this week so I really can't believe that it's Friday already. I LOVE THOSE KIND OF WEEKS :)<br /><br />So we've been really busy with little Miss Ella. Just after her birthday, I started to notice a disturbing little trend with her. She was hitting. At first I told myself that she didn't know what she was doing. Then it was <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">because</span> she was tired. Then it was because she was teething. Then it was because she doesn't see us much during the week. Then it was because she was frustrated. I'm sure that you get the picture. I was coming up with every excuse in the book as to why she was hitting and before I knew she was taking cracks at us every chance that she got. Mostly in the face. I'm not sure about anyone else, but when I get hit in the face it's enough to get my blood boiling.<br /><br />So I ran through the <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">gamut</span> of options of how to take care of this "temporary situation" (temporary because if I got hit in the face one more time I thought I was going to lose my marbles) She just seemed so mean. Nothing was good enough. She always seemed to be <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">agitated</span> and I was thinking, "What happened to my sweet, happy little 12 month old?". This often left my crying on the couch after I put her to bed at night. One night we were trying to run through our bedtime routine as usual and we were reading a story. She threw the book she was holding onto (yes, we're having a little issue with throwing when we're frustrated too, oh and screaming, but I'll get to that later). So I said, "Ella, we don't throw." Before I could get the word throw out, I got a 12 month sized patty upside the face. Oh I don't think so! Dan shut the book he was reading, told Ella "We don't hit Mommy!",<span style="color:#000000;"> laid </span>her down and left the room. Never had we ever left the room that abruptly for bedtime. It was the first time she had cried in about a month after we put her to bed. IT BROKE MY HEART. I hated it. And I'm sure she did too.<br /><br />I talked to a lot of people and read a lot of stuff on the <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">Internet</span> (which is something that Ella's doctor wished I wouldn't do). I must admit that some things really scared me <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">because</span> when you start reading about <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">behavioral</span> issues, the first thing they say is if it becomes a recurring problem that a professional should be contacted. So I drove myself crazy and then I thought, "THAT'S IT!!!". So I started just setting her down when she would hit me and <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7">walking</span> away from her, which at first she didn't like. It seemed to work for about a couple days. Then she figured out that she could just crawl away and find something to occupy herself. So that stopped working really quick. And then the screaming, oh the screaming. After a while of setting her down she would just look at me and scream or hit my feet or throw something.<br /><br />So on Tuesday while I was home with her I started something new. Every time Ella would get the nerve to hit me I would march her upstairs, put her in an empty crib, leave the room, go downstairs and start the stove timer for 1 minute. Then after the timer would go off and I would go upstairs and tell her again "We don't hit Mommy". She would lift her little arms up and when I would pick her up she would lay her head on my shoulder and say "Momma?". It made me feel bad but in 3 days I'm noticing a difference in her. Tonight I didn't have to take her upstairs at all.<br /><br />Now I realize it's far from over. If it <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9">isn't</span> hitting I'm sure that it will be something else. But at least I finally feel like I'm doing something that she understands that if I do this mommy goes away.<br /><br />That really seems like that has been our life. I really don't know where September went.<br /><br />The only other thing that I have been doing lately that has been taking up my time is <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">craigslist</span></span></span></span>. Dan and I cleaned out the house this past weekend and we're not even close to being finished. But I put a few things up for sale and some of them have sold which is really nice. However the other night I was looking at the stuff for sale and I found a lady in <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">Geneseo</span></span></span></span> who was selling a Little <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">Tikes</span></span></span></span> ladybug sandbox and playhouse. She was selling them for $45 for both. I thought that it might <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13">be </span>a good deal and it sounded like she was really eager to get rid of them. So I looked up the sandbox and I found it on Amazon on sale for $30. Now the playhouses a <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_14">ridiculously</span> <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_15">expensive</span> like anywhere from $199 to $450 depending on the model. Dan went to look at it tonight and called me and said that they both looked to be in good shape and we decided to buy them. When her got home I couldn't believe it. For being out in the weather like they were they were in great condition. And not only that but when Dan asked her how much again she lowered it to $30!!!! Ella played with the house for 45 <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_16"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">mins</span></span></span></span>. tonight! It was great and she seemed so happy.

She seems to have little conversations with us and I know she's telling me something very important but I just don't know what it is. I can't wait to find out though. It's almost like waiting to meet your newborn. You wonder what they'll look like. Now I wonder how she will sound when she actually is understandable :) She's getting two more teeth at the same time. This kid gets teeth like rapid fire. She got all four of her one year molars at 11 months. Makes for an unhappy child sometimes but she still manages to smile in between. Here are some new pictures.

The first year I mean. I remember everything I was feeling like it was yesterday. What will he/she look like? Will he/she have lots of hair or none at all? Will we be good parents? Will we know what to do? Can we do this? Now a year later I've learned so much. I've learned that I can change diapers, I can mix formula, that bottle nipples have different stages, that binky's have different sizes, I can teach someone how to use a cup and to say mama and dada, I can feed a baby table food and skip jar food, I can tell that she doesn't feel well just by looking at her, I can move in and out of her room with stealth like abilities when she's napping, that even though it sounds like jibberish she really is telling me something and I have to listen, I can miss her as soon as I walk out of the daycare door, and even though she's fiercely independent she still needs me when she wakes in the middle of the night. There are many other things I have learned and I know she will teach me many more. It's so hard to grasp that a year can go by in the blink of an eye and that this little miracle has accomplished so much in that time. That's all for now.<br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMKPEjU2DzpRGNh33zhVYI7PRG3XW-EWPNC-clcrPF97JuCmZwyxgN-jgaqpxzfFjPbxeUvXs_r_XHeoew1CaOGhY-FWMxCUTbD8xwz51_ga9YJK_s-JuLr7fY2eqUPAvtYpKBUwx2GAk/s1600-h/100_1222.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5239018756871313458" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMKPEjU2DzpRGNh33zhVYI7PRG3XW-EWPNC-clcrPF97JuCmZwyxgN-jgaqpxzfFjPbxeUvXs_r_XHeoew1CaOGhY-FWMxCUTbD8xwz51_ga9YJK_s-JuLr7fY2eqUPAvtYpKBUwx2GAk/s200/100_1222.JPG" border="0" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8r5-wOvqzKXicLpNzYdDsm5CXRswjKSEYLSEGYHNtikYLqIbUfRd0SICDkmn_KK5GMpCqxx4tbZwS31ePfYa9AuDPQjHMhsTlv__6n44bSi57HXEUcfFKD1ohCdDIbb5op2oDZ8BZlBc/s1600-h/100_2887.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5239022823827990690" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8r5-wOvqzKXicLpNzYdDsm5CXRswjKSEYLSEGYHNtikYLqIbUfRd0SICDkmn_KK5GMpCqxx4tbZwS31ePfYa9AuDPQjHMhsTlv__6n44bSi57HXEUcfFKD1ohCdDIbb5op2oDZ8BZlBc/s200/100_2887.JPG" border="0" /></a></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6347105137661803006.post-91699162029570613682008-08-05T23:15:00.014-04:002008-08-06T00:05:49.168-04:00The many hair do's of EllaI thought that it would be fun to do some nonsense blogging.

It's been a while and I have a lot to post. First of all I would like to thank my Aunt Karen for coming to see us on June 20th while she was up from North Carolina. Ella was about 3 or 4 weeks old the last time she saw her. I was so excited.

Friday night when I picked up my little munchkin from daycare she had a new do: <div><div><div><div><div><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMWKSdq8UN4GtWj7O3ESsDkVcG0it4-7FBB16fqM4BvcVLRbmMEGIGSzBPN38nGZId2LXv_kLlw1mmc20f8dt8uO282sq0YKcQrUvpYN2NMjj6TOBFoEt1p21tl_8hbCl0vIuprQokPJA/s1600-h/100_2530.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5212664050041554322" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMWKSdq8UN4GtWj7O3ESsDkVcG0it4-7FBB16fqM4BvcVLRbmMEGIGSzBPN38nGZId2LXv_kLlw1mmc20f8dt8uO282sq0YKcQrUvpYN2NMjj6TOBFoEt1p21tl_8hbCl0vIuprQokPJA/s320/100_2530.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /></div><div>As you can see she's still trying to make peace with the grass. Back in April was the first time Ella came in contact with grass and she wasn't impressed. We're getting there.</div><br /><div><div>Also on Friday I was trying to prepare Ella for Father's Day:</div><br /><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dxFRDQOLJA1pCzEWgSy3vtJRDGwzNlf3qu2OSBgvXjv5vnG5aguOFM4SaSjNGlO-QHTac4hu9rjKHDPX8E38w' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe><br /><br /><div>Observe the blank stare and crickets chirping when she's asked to stay DaDa. It's a work in progress. Dan says he doesn't mind. I was told that babies always say dada first so I was prepared. But when she said mama first I actually felt a little guilty.............................just a little :)</div><br /><div>Saturday was busy. Dan and I were getting things ready to go to my mom's friends cancer benefit while Ella was taking her naps. We knew that we were going to be out late and we wanted to make sure that she got her rest. Our friends the Johnsons's called to let us know that they were at the hospital to have their baby. I was so relieved for her because she was due Friday the 6th. She had a little girl and we're so excited. We can't wait to meet her.</div><br /><div>We had a great time at the benefit. There was lots of live music and we got to hear my stepfather play. Ella had a great time. She danced and played in her pack-n-play. People got a kick out of her. And in true fashion we documented the event with 2, that's right, 2 pictures</div><div><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuDVUVDSqpgPaogPjmCUNONkhbCvdY44T8WOHCbSv3Km3GUfcz40mW6i04ayevFyhUgBpwt3xI6QK6VWNX0-3Zo-gOYAO9pJyx-l9kC3qHknSUiOBydK8sUfzSOZGYQcYKgrPeAr97Bxs/s1600-h/100_2545.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5212667911044347186" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuDVUVDSqpgPaogPjmCUNONkhbCvdY44T8WOHCbSv3Km3GUfcz40mW6i04ayevFyhUgBpwt3xI6QK6VWNX0-3Zo-gOYAO9pJyx-l9kC3qHknSUiOBydK8sUfzSOZGYQcYKgrPeAr97Bxs/s320/100_2545.JPG" border="0" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIL5O-jLAV6cTu-kG4-3pR1S95IjXjJdmICNe75USiSkpmZkbvQhzK3symUB1gNyAeQ2YSx6kliHJzOunRuiLSMxEgeiwH7fXTjeGlnchFJ2yjRci3sCUMhx-HYFaIza9j7S_zo0E_fz8/s1600-h/100_2546.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5212667913042372658" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIL5O-jLAV6cTu-kG4-3pR1S95IjXjJdmICNe75USiSkpmZkbvQhzK3symUB1gNyAeQ2YSx6kliHJzOunRuiLSMxEgeiwH7fXTjeGlnchFJ2yjRci3sCUMhx-HYFaIza9j7S_zo0E_fz8/s320/100_2546.JPG" border="0" /></a></div><br /><div>We were in Gorham until 10pm and when we got back home we were able to get her to sleep with no problem which we considered pretty lucky.</div><br /><div>Then Sunday.........Dan's first Father's Day. He got a ceramic travel coffee mug from Ella that she put her hand and foot print on and he got to go to Riki's for breakfast. That is our favorite place in Fairport to go for breakfast. We were able to make a stop at 3 dad's houses and a picnic at Dan's Grandparents house. We got rained out a little but a good time was had by all. And at the end of the day I realized we were so busy that we didn't take any pictures.</div><br /><div>The weekend was fun but we are looking forward to just "vegging" this coming weekend. I'll leave you with a few other pictures from this past week.

Easier said than done. Enter 9 month old that likes to crawl away fast, work, dinner, housework, and the occasional date night and you have a receipe for the blog not getting updated. Oh did I mention I'd like to add sleep somewhere in there (what's that!). Here's dinner tonight. It's broccoli, biter biscuit, and rice cereal(which I'm ready to give up on). I'm tired and want to go lounge.

Ella has got a cold this week and she's given it to Mommy and Daddy. The begining of the week was rough because she had some teething going on all at the same time. Tuesday night into Wednesday morning she was up almost all night. So this is how it went down Wednesday night at dinner:<br /><p><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dx5MbH4mIdxJjj0lIRWir_kDa_lnun9bgeHKNAoafJTkGO_4hQY4HQarCI7-Ao3wUjQq3Fg6y_sFNKx22Y4MA' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dy2LEPFwpw2PtOFuT4TyjJwFStyct-b-VAFE2DovPJhVQ8u7LcK1lLLUOz3rS69fxsiK5lsTRfea33OHhFm1Q' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe></p><p>Bless her heart :) In between all of this she would sit up, not open her eyes, shove a puff in her mouth, and then lay her head back down. So she's just like Mommy, even when she's sleeping she's thinkin' about food. Plus when she finally woke up in the last video she was none too happy and looked at me as if to say, "Were you eating my puffs?". It was so funny.</p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6347105137661803006.post-59816532712576451122008-04-28T21:13:00.000-04:002008-04-28T22:41:01.318-04:00Back Blog......To bring you up to date on what's been going on with us lately, let me just start with this........<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZEUrH5nobpKS4aUOjw7txmVTCrsfpytfH60g0yCEcQOnQeQzFQQIB1JWg_vE7ropT5KmfQgAiWMvbkDjzz9nS5Q8njTjTKNuWrAxKWmF_n3JHmZbnh7Sv6fzX_U9FgkMdbZzi2JRTpig/s1600-h/100_2323.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5194469765288213826" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZEUrH5nobpKS4aUOjw7txmVTCrsfpytfH60g0yCEcQOnQeQzFQQIB1JWg_vE7ropT5KmfQgAiWMvbkDjzz9nS5Q8njTjTKNuWrAxKWmF_n3JHmZbnh7Sv6fzX_U9FgkMdbZzi2JRTpig/s320/100_2323.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br />That's right, the dreaded pink eye and she didn't get it from Scott Baio. I'm guessing daycare but the Dr. said she could have gotten it from anywhere. She also had a viral infection that caused a temp but no other symptoms. This happened on 4/15. So we got eye drops and the suggestion to keep her out of daycare for 48hrs. By Thursday of that week she was back to daycare and everything was back to normal. Friday night was a very nice night and I decided to treat Ella to a picnic outside which was dinner in her stroller while I sat on the front steps. She seemed to like that. Saturday my mom came over to watch her while Dan and I made a trip to Fredonia to see his little sister perform in a graduation recital. It was just her performing and she has a wonderful voice.<br /><br /><div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUcb7NBXBcy8LoQpe7DjAMKGQFiprmNAHuRIG4jXi7KdfbFCAZ4eiffbKPCnnMAIerADhht2Kne6D_NzPZhpJwY3eVfFYl8_PiFIYHbPH_iRJ0YL5cCEOVKY8GDOvsHa2pR4TeU3DtyC8/s1600-h/100_2329.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5194472892024405330" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUcb7NBXBcy8LoQpe7DjAMKGQFiprmNAHuRIG4jXi7KdfbFCAZ4eiffbKPCnnMAIerADhht2Kne6D_NzPZhpJwY3eVfFYl8_PiFIYHbPH_iRJ0YL5cCEOVKY8GDOvsHa2pR4TeU3DtyC8/s320/100_2329.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /></div><div>This is the only picture I captured of the event. I'm very talented.</div><div></div><div>So the day went well for my mom and Ella so we all went out to dinner when we got back. Sunday we had brunch with Dan's Mom and Stepfather and then the rest of the day was spent outside with boo doing some over due yard work because our time in the fall was taken by a brand new baby. Here she is getting ready for sunscreen(she was more interested in crawling).</div><div><br /></div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKwEXO9a2Wae-b0J79sOPIV1FVHWiaI2vu76wTdkE0EEJWqh-Frmp7vm_ReQrHHLLomNtfu3lTaf9ch5JWFbe8n4f4wtFUKA9CtTBCS2hjXQeDyMsRV3ojU4SFcwVw9yRJzW_qXBeXDz4/s1600-h/100_2339.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5194476263573732706" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKwEXO9a2Wae-b0J79sOPIV1FVHWiaI2vu76wTdkE0EEJWqh-Frmp7vm_ReQrHHLLomNtfu3lTaf9ch5JWFbe8n4f4wtFUKA9CtTBCS2hjXQeDyMsRV3ojU4SFcwVw9yRJzW_qXBeXDz4/s320/100_2339.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /></div><div>Now cut to Monday night(4/21). Dan says he feels warm and takes his temperature and voila he has the temperature wielding viral infection "that just has to run it's course". So Tuesday he stayed home from work because his temp hadn't given up. Tuesday night I get home from work and I start to develop a headache. No biggie, take some ibuprofin and call it good. But I woke up in the middle of the night with the headache and a terrible neck ache to go along with it. It wasn't better by Wednesday morning so Dan took Ella to daycare and I stayed home from work(good grief). I took stuff all day to get rid of the aches and nothing helped. Thursday morning I still had a bad headache but forced myself to go to work. I ended up going to the Dr. She told me I pulled my neck(don't ask me) She gave me really good pain meds, muscle relaxants, and a note to be out of work for the rest of the day and Friday too. Oh and she said because of the relaxants I shouldn't care for the baby as long as I was on them and Dan was to do all the baby carrying. Then Friday morning Dan woke up with red eyes. That's right folks it came full circle, he stayed home friday too because of pink eye in both eyes. So now drops for Dan. Can you picture me on muscle relaxants tring to lysol and bleach everything I can? </div><div> </div><div>All the relaxants did was make me sleep though the pain so it was a very boring and quick weekend for me. I took them until Sunday morning. I was so happy to not have a headache and be done with the whole thing. Dan still has some sort of cold that he's been fighting since he had the temp but he's getting better.</div><div> </div><div></div><div>Today 4/28 was my day off and I took Ella the the U of R infant lab to help with a language study they were conducting. It was really fun and interesting and she got a shirt out of it.... </div><div><br /> </div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4EElOPv8TT-GBcRp1SgzwejdBtcIHwkB_N9S4mVnjar7BPA_9Z1tRmLQywdL4RhdML2UnhVi4evSsZQU05hdgyr0UG3s15c4V6hbh40e-Ch_q_8M3n0gKKcp2nnCks7MNbku_4L_R3B0/s1600-h/100_2381.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5194482697434742130" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4EElOPv8TT-GBcRp1SgzwejdBtcIHwkB_N9S4mVnjar7BPA_9Z1tRmLQywdL4RhdML2UnhVi4evSsZQU05hdgyr0UG3s15c4V6hbh40e-Ch_q_8M3n0gKKcp2nnCks7MNbku_4L_R3B0/s320/100_2381.JPG" border="0" /></a></div><br /><div></div><div>Also Ella is 8 months old today and I can't even believe it.
