Well, I've been a little MIA from the blog world. I am not really sure why. I guess it's been a combination of things. 1. My student teacher finished her 8 weeks with me and moved on---so I've been sent back into reality...LOL. 2. Busy planning for the Halloween party, getting our costumes finalized, etc. 3. Me being sick, Ava being sick. 4. Planning for my sister's baby shower.
Lots going on. =)
I did, however, have to share this little story...
We found out Ava has a double ear infection and possibly bronchitis, Dr. Emm said. So, with all of that, her poor little nose is running, running, running. At night, it runs and then gets crusted on the outside. I literally have had to SCRAPE her poor nose every morning for the last about 5 days (lovely visual, I know...but it gets better). So, we got up this morning at my mom's house and I noticed her icky nose once again and then I got to looking closer and saw that since her hair is so long, it actually had gotten down in her face (if she's had pigtails in all day, I take them out to sleep) anyway, a strand of hair had gotten down in her face and then caked in the GUNK that was coming out of her nose. I could NOT get it out for anything and was even having a hard time getting the boogie out so first step I had to CUT the hair to get it apart.
All that was left was this HAIRY BOOGER stuck to her nose. Then I FINALLY got it off...and let me tell you it was disgusting!!
We left my mom's tonight and she slept pretty much the entire 2 hours home. She did not move when I opened the van door, the light came on, I unbuckled her, carried her in, upstairs, turned on her space heater, fan, monitor, (snuck in a little rocking time) and laid her down! Hoping she sleeps all night tonight and the time change doesn't mess us up! =)
More blogging and pics coming soon...
