To make a long story full of irritability and discomfort short, I woke up on Monday morning with a horrible earache which caused my eardrum to burst (ow, ow, OW) on my way to a PrimaCare (yup, took the kids with me, in a ridiculous amount of pain to even consider alternate plans of what to do with them), then the babies woke up the next morning with fevers. After taking them to their pediatrician, Owen was diagnosed with an ear infection. We're ammoxicillan buddies! :)
On a happier note, my first Mother's Day was fantastic, a round of applause to Vince for being so thoughtful! He gave me Sprinkles cupcakes and a gift certificate for an afternoon at a spa (my former place of employment, actually) and then we all went to lunch. I have scheduled my day for this Saturday, I am so excited! Hopefully this stupid cotton will be out of my ear by then, I feel weird walking around with it.
Though Owen is still just not interested in crawling, he does enjoy standing up with the help of furniture. Emmaline is finally doing more than just "wading" on the hardwood floor, and is starting to move her legs as well as her arms. She kind of looks like a seal otherwise, just pushing around with her arms.
When my sister was visiting a few weeks ago, she turned our Sirius radio to a "Soul Town" station one morning and we noticed Emmaline enjoyed it!
