Friday it started snowing and snowing and snowing...so I left work a tad early to go pick up the essentials, pizza (just incase our normal place wasn't delivering) beer, wine, and chocolate! I headed to Aiden's school to get him out instead of him taking hte bus to daycare. We got home early and ordered our pizza and Aiden and headed out into the snow to shovel (round #1). Then, we just laid around as the snow continued to fall at about an inch each hour and watched Monsters Inc. It was a perfect evening! Saturday morning was also wonderful! Chris got up with both kids so I slept until about 9:30. After I finally got up and moving, we took the kids outside to play! This was Ava's first time in the snow! I think she liked it but of course she couldn't tell me so I am not 100% sure, I just know there were no tears. After she and I had enough cold we went inside and left the boys outside. She ended up going down for a nice long nap and I got a ton of things done around the house! I felt so productive! I need a Saturday like that once a month!
After Ava's long nap, we noticed she was starting to get her redness in her face again, her nose was running more and more. She just finished her second antibiotic, Omniceft (SP) on Wednesday and here she was coming down with somthing again...she has been coughing but it's gotten worse. So we kept an eye on her the rest of the night. We went to roosters for dinner which was so yummy and I was totally BAD and had cheese fries! But, it was soo worth every bite! We came home and I think I was in bed at 9 PM, so pathetic! Then, Sunday morning, we decided Ava needed to go back to the Doctors, so Chris took her in at 10 AM- I LOVE that our peditrician's office has on call hours on Sat and Sun, we have used that more that the regular office hours! I didn't want Aiden to have to go so I told Chris to take the baby and I would take Aiden down to road to do some sledding. We drive past this great hill (there are not many in our area) where we see kids sledding all the time and it looks like a BLAST! So away he and I went on a little Mommy and me date to the big hill and it was in fact a BLAST! Aiden did great, he was so excited and very careful, we just had a great time together! Then we headed to Mcdonalds for some lunch and to get Ava's Rx's. She was given a third antibiotic for her second ear infection. She is also on breathing treatments three times a day. Hopefully this will make her all better. I am so sad because she just isn't getting well, yet, she keeps that little smile on her face. She is just such a precious angel!
Sunday afternoon, we had even more excitement when Aiden and Chris were wrestling downstairs and he ran up to tell me his tooth was loose! So I checked it out and it was certainly wiggling! He was all excited because the tooth fairy was coming as he said "tonight!" I told him it might take a few days for it to fall out. Well, not two minutes later he comes running back upstairs and said it's out! He apparently pulled it out! So, the tooth fairy did make an appearance at our house last night. She left $5.00 under his pillow in exchange for his tooth. (which he did not want to give up) I think normal rate will be $1.00, it was his first tooth so he got a little extra this time around!
Sunday was also Super Bowl Sunday so we headed to the neighbors for their annual party. I didn't really get to see any of the game since I was chasing Ava around most of the time I was there. I did get to chat and eat some yummy food. Ava and I called it an early evening with her not feeling well and were home by 8. We got ready for bed and I folded clothes as she unfolded them. That is the new system at my house! One of these days I will learn to wait until she goes to bed to fold the clothes!
Today, we had parent teacher conference this morning with Aiden's teacher. He is doing wonderfully in school. She said he is one of the top 5 readers in her class and he is very smart. That made me feel really good! She also said he is doing great at math! We have had a few minor behavioral issues the past few weeks but she said he has been doing great since then and she is going to keep us posted so we can continue to monitor his behavior. I am so proud of him!
We are expecting to get more snow tonight through Wed...so here we go again! Tomorrow is Aiden's 6 year check up at the doctor, we are going to get our own parking spot pretty soon we are there so much! Ava is heading back on Fri afternoon for a re check of her iron and chest. I just pray she gets well soon! Until next time, stay warm and safe!
