Hello Mommy & Daddy

A teaspoon of crying makes the medicine go down.

So you all know I have an ear infection. Well I've discovered a wonderful way to play with Mom and Dad. When they try and shoot the medicine in my mouth I spit it out. I find this very, very funny. The medicine doesn't even taste that bad but spitting it out is so much fun. Unfortunately what they have discovered is that I can't spit it out when I'm crying. So they wait for me to cry and then shoot it down my throat. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted.

I'm starting to feel better in my ear but still have a wicked cold. My nose is all stuffed up and Mom uses this bulb thing to take the snot out. It really sucks. But I'm still in good spirits. Peace out. Elias

Shout Out

Shout out to Leanne and Chris on welcoming Asher Clyde this morning at 12:55 a.m. 7 lbs. 11 oz. 19.5 inches. We are so very happy for you.

My poor boys

Well Brad's back is a bit better. However he's still in a lot of pain. He's basically been laid up since Sat. which really sucks for him.



Also, don't let this amazingly cute photo taken this morning mislead you, my other main man has an ear infection. I brought him to the doctor yesterday after he started coughing and sneezing a lot again. The poor guy has been sick half his life. I guess that is one of the unfortunate things of being a January baby. Mom (Grandma Bette), says I should know.




The only positive thing about Elias being sick is that it gave Brad and I a boost in our parenting abilities. We knew something was wrong with him. As you read from my last post, he was very clingy, crying a lot, and just not being himself. We both noticed this and decided it was time for a trip to the doc. Thankfully we did because he only has a minor ear infection in one ear. We were supposed to go to the Brookfield Zoo today with Grandma Sonny but it will have to wait until his ear gets better since it is a stinking 33 degrees here today! Spring anyone? ...C



Oh and watch for a possible shout out later today. Aunt Leanne had contractions six minutes apart last night at 10:30 p.m. We're waiting for a call to see if Asher is an April Fool's baby!
