Back to normal and a doctor’s appointment

January 4th, 2012

Ella’s back to school tomorrow and since we have no plans this coming weekend, I think I will feel like life is back to normal from all the holiday bliss.

I’m glad. It was so much fun. But wow, I’m wiped out. Steve actually let me take a 4 hour nap this afternoon while Eva napped and Ella had quiet time. I didn’t sleep that whole time, but boy was it great.

Speaking of normal, Eva had her 2-year checkup today. She’s still a tiny thing, at just 12% for height at 32.5 inches and 20% for weight at 24 pounds. But she is exactly where she is supposed to be for everything developmentally – actually advanced and she’s just a petite girl. And amazingly she did not cry a second when she got a flu injection. The nurse technician was shocked. She did have an ear infection though, which I suspected. We had a good long stretch with no sicknesses, hope we have a better winter!

Next was a marathon trip to Kroger. Girls ate macaroni then donuts and we shopped, picked up Eva’s prescription, then both girls went on the potty. Go Eva! Although the way I had Eva positioned on the potty, she accidentally peed all over her pants. So that created a tricky situation. Not to mention they were all hopped up on donuts at that point, in which I then had to wait in line for the prescription and go through the process of using new insurance. Let’s just say I was pretty happy when we finally made it home.

Well if that’s not back to a normal day, I don’t know what is. I guess we’re back!
