Anna's Is Now VOCAL!!!!

I know have a VOCAL daughter!

Since she was 10moths old, Anna has had constant ear infections. In the past three months, she's not went more than 10 days without running a fever and visiting her dr. We visited Tuscaloosa Peds so much, that the receptionists knew me and Anna by first names. One even made jokes about payment plans for co-pays!

So finally, her pediatrician(s) gave us our much needed referral. Last Wednesday, we took Anna to see Dr. Rosenstiel @ Tuscaloosa ENT. After looking in her ears he said "Still fluid, you know your options." I said, "TUBES!" Dave said, "As Soon As Possible!" It was scheduled for 2 days later!

She went through the surgery great! As soon as we got home, she ate enough for me and her. Then within an hour she started jabbering. And jabbering! And jabbering! It has been non-stop! It's like we have a new child. It's amazing! I feel horrible that she had to go through all the dr's visits and shots, but so happy and blessed that she's doing so well!

2nd Grade!!!!!

Today starts Jay's 1st day of 2nd Grade! He loves his new teacher, Ms. Avery!

He was so big this morning. He didn't want me to walk him in. He said, "Mom, I'm not a little kid anymore. I'm a 2nd grader. Only Kindergarteners and 1st'ers need their Mommy's to walk them in!" And I guess I'm one of the odd Mom's, I was so glad that he's not wanting me to be right over him. He's had two horrible years at school, so I'm sooo glad that he still wants to go to school.


He didn't want me to take too many pictures today, but I did get him to agree to a few. But he wouldn't change his pose!

Hope everyone has a great 1st day of the new school year!
