This week has been rough. I'm still sick. On Wednesday I went to an ENT for my throat and my opthamologist for my eye. I have a throat infection (I'm taking Zithromax) and viral conjunctivitis (it's viral so that's why the antibacterial drops haven't worked; now I'm using steroid drops). We've missed out on lots of stuff--playgroup, the last Gym Rompers, the Park--and I missed a girl's night dinner on Tuesday. B spent the afternoon with Aunt Katie on Wed. while I went to my doctorpalooza. Marme came over after work on Tuesday and yesteday to help me out. Peter has been so great. He brought home ice cream and macaroni & cheese for me.
Betsy has a great new trick and Peter was blown away when I showed it to him last night. I tell her to get her baby and she'll crawl to her doll, grab it with one hand, then bring it to me. It's soooo awesome!
B has been destroying the living room every day since I've been sick. She pulls every piece of paper out of my bills basket then pulls things out of the pantry and spreads her toys around the room. She also loves digging through her diaper bag. Marme made a suggestion and it worked well. I filled a diaper bag with random objects--a bottle, a melon baller, a few coffee filters, a plastic bowl, and a measuring cup--and put it down on the floor within her reach. She stopped, looked at me, and then when I turned around she went for it and pulled every single thing out and played like crazy. We did this about five times yesterday. I hope it works today. She's actually napping and has been for an hour. It's strange because it's only 9 am. I finally got to update the blog. Pics later!
