That’s “cute things they say”

DH has been working a lot. A whole lot. Thing One and Thing Two spent one entire day “mama”-ing me to death. All day long, “Mama?”, “Mama!”, “Hey, mom!”, “mom-can-I”, you know the drill. For some reason, I was the parent chosen to read from The Magic Treehouse that night, probably because they no longer recognize what their father looks like. I wearily said that I would read if they promised not to say “mama” again before they went to bed. The next thing out of Thing Two’s mouth? “Jen?”

that will be $20, please May 23, 2008

Woke up at 6:15 to Thing Two claiming his ear hurt. If he says it hurts, it’s infected. He’s never c/o ear pain and NOT had an infection. I couldn’t call the ped until 7:30, so I got up, did my run, and came back to call. They offered me 9:30 at the far away office or 11 at the close office, so I took 11. She called back within 10 minutes to offer me 8:45. Sold!

DH is home since we’re suppose to leave for the weekend in Gatlinburg mid-morning. He kept Thing One while Thing Two and I went off to get the ear check and ABT’s. Yep, infected. No red throat, likely not strep, just a side effect of congestion. DH and I had colds last week and I have had a sore throat for 3 days now… I was tempted to ask her to check me too.

Anyway, DH is fiddling with insulation and as soon as he showers, we’re packing up and heading out for the long weekend in Gatlinburg with my parents.
