Creepy, Crawler

I meant to post yesterday but the day got away from me and before I knew it, the day was over. I am not a night owl to any degree. As soon as the 3 crazies are asleep my mind shouts "Go mamma, go! There's so much to get done now that there are no distractions." Then my body says "it's so quiet and peaceful, i think i'll just... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz." Yep, that's how most evenings end up for us. Anyhow, since this blog has now become a journal of sorts I thought it was worth documenting all that took place this past week with Kye. On Friday I took him in to the Peds office b/c he hadn't been sleeping well at all- like 2 or 3 hours at a time. And he was really fussy which is out of character for him since he's a very pleasant, happy baby. My suspicions were confirmed. Another double ear infection.

So instead of treating him with oral antibiotics, they gave him 2 shots in his legs. While we were there, I asked if they could call the ENT for me to see if they could fit us in sooner than the 12th of October. They did call and fit us in the same day! So I took Kye in at 2:00 to see the ENT. It was a quick visit where he just confirmed that Kye needs ear tubes. The DR gave me the order and we were on our way. Once in the car, I called to schedule the surgery and they penciled us in for Thursday the 11th. Yeah~ we can finally see an end in sight for reoccurring ear infections! I'm looking forward to Thursday. So in the AM on Saturday I took Kye into the dr office for his 2nd round of shots. On Sunday morning I took him to Loudoun Hospital for the 3rd and final round. It took 3 hours total to get in and get out. We were actually checked into the same room that I was in with Dax when we stayed overnight with his eye infection, and we had some familiar nurses as well. Being there for 3 hours made for a long morning.

Once settled back in at home, we had family over for dinner and the last session of conference. While we were playing games after dinner our little Kye graduated from scooting to actual crawling!! I can't remember how old Liala or Dax were when they crawled so I'm not sure how this compares. I'm thinking 7 1/2 months is about average? Life has forever changed! We have another creepy, cralwer. Time to get the gates out!!
