Family Matters
So we do have a few excellent and unfortunate developments in the realm of the Erwin family:
1. Ericka
She got really nasty sick on Saturday, to the point where I had to come home early from work and she had to go to the doctor. Her tonsils have always bothered her, and she got a real bad case of tonsillitus or a sinus infection, with no fever we weren't really sure (and I don't recall her ever giving me a final answer). So she got antibiotics, some cough medicine, and an order to stay home and rest.
That means she didn't get to go to work on July 4th for four hours which would've been double-time for her. Sigh. Easy money right there. Maybe next time.
Anyway, she's feeling a lot better, and for that I'm glad. I love her more every day and am very thankful that she can handle the kids so much better than I can.
2. Annie
My beautiful darling is just as wonderful as ever, and she learns more everyday. She can officially count your fingers up to 5, and how many 2 year olds you know can do that? (Don't answer that)
She also just...wait for it...slept in her toddler bed! Woohoo! And we're not talking for a short stint, we're talking throughout the night, and Ericka waking her up in the morning. That is excellent news. This segues directly into...
3. Abby
Yup, my beautiful almost-5 month old is getting more active, showing more signs of life, and is trying her best to learn to crawl. She can roll however, and that is fantastic. And now that we're past her first bout of bad diaper rash, we can move on and focus on The Happy. It's just nice to have it in the house. That's what kids do, they bring The Happy. If you don't know what I'm talking about, you don't have children.
