Mother's Day and Beyond

Well, I have been remiss in congratulating my kiddos for making my mother's day non-eventful (sort of). I realize that doesn't really make sense, but if you review last mother's day you might get a nice little recall. :) Ok, well it was fabulous! They brought me breakfast in bed and tons of the cutest gifts ever! Then we went to Church, got roses and cake and came home and I actually got to take a nap! Now, my sweet husband set out on the daunting task of taking care of the kids and making a wonderful steak dinner including homemade blueberry pie. I don't think he'll take on quite so much next year! We did, however, get a screaming Kylie starting around 4pm. My bliss didn't last and I spent a little bit of my time cursing the day...j/k. She got a fever around 7pm and I was so mad as I pictured us once again heading to an urgent care clinic on Mother's Day, but all was not horrible. Tylenol quickly broke the fever and despite the screaming it really was a wonderful day. We got to stay home and we didn't have to see one person in a white coat!!

FYI: I took Kylie to the doctor Monday (while David stayed home and painted the kitchen--Wahoo!) and turns out she had another ear infection. Anything beats a UTI!

In other news: I know I keep saying this, but Kylie is amazing us constatntly. She is crawling more and more. We are so pleased! A few days back we walked in the kitchen and found her
like this...

She was stuck and screaming about it, but we thought it was hilarious!
Well, I am off! Emily lost her lens in her glasses and then new ones came in so we have to go them and Kylie is now starting liquids (Yea!) so I have to go buy some canned fruit. (The juice is a thicker liquid until she passes the next swallow study.) Busy busy!

My goodness, that is the BEST Mother's Day you've had in ages. I'm so glad for you.
And super great news about Kylie. I think I found my first two kiddos like that too at one point. It's so funny.
