December 31 - How the year started...


To do justice to how my year started, I will start with how 2008 ended. Alaina was scheduled to go in to the Dr to get her 2 month shots. The 2 month shots consist of 2 shots in 1 leg and 1 shot in the other and they also squirt this stuff in the baby's mouth. You can imagine how much FUN we had watching all of that. Thankfully, Teddy went to the Dr with me and he helped the nurse by holding Alaina's arms back so she could administer the shots. It wasn't as bad as I had prepared myself for it to be. Don't get me wrong, it was terrible to see her cry, but I had envisioned this horrific screaming to the point of not breathing and that just is not what happened. She cried a little after each poke and when the nurse was done Teddy picked her up and she looked at him and gave a little "waa!" as if to say "what the heck?" and that was about it. The cruddy thing was at this same time they let us know that she has EAR INFECTION!! Oh no!! We are praying the ear infection is just an after thought of the cold she had the week before and NOT the beginning of the luck Mommy had with her ears her whole childhood... So off we went to Hy-Vee to fill her Rx for the ear infection. We spent New Years Eve/My birthday at the house with Alaina letting her sleep and I think I drifted off around 10:30?? Yeah...I didn't even make it to the New Year but I welcomed it the next morning after Alaina slept the WHOLE night! HAPPY NEW YEAR - Mommy got her "SILENT NIGHT!"
