And we're back

Oh my goodness it's been ages. And I can't get over the fact that we've been in LA for four months already! The work week just gets crazier and crazier as K and I try to meet deadlines and weekends seem to just zoom by. Saturdays mornings have become my Friday night.

Much has happened, not sure where to begin....

Well, Mr. Moo has had two ear infections. It's lead to numerous doctor's visits, lots of screaming, not much sleep and mad scrambling in the mornings to reschedule work meetings. He's had 3 bad colds and I've had to pick him up from daycare those 3 times when his temperature spiked to 103. I'd walk in and the poor baby would be lying there with one of his teachers, dazed and sleepy. I'd pick him up and take him to see his pediatrician only to be told the that there was nothing wrong. The fever wouldn't subside so we'd be off to see his doctor again and behold, an ear infection. Antibiotics and ear pain drops were administered (hence the screaming), naps were rejected, meals became nightmares as chewing was painful. And then he was fine....

But then he contracted pinkeye, twice. So back to the pediatrician, eye drops were administed (more screaming), more mad scrambling as K and I took turns taking time off. On the days we couldn't, poor Emo received a number of frantic calls in the morning. I thank God and marvel everyday for the fact that K and I have family-friendly jobs.
