February

We started off the month with Caiden getting pink eye on them morning of his two year check-up (good timing I guess!)  The poor guy had yucky crusty junk covering his eyes but it only lasted two days.  The eye drops were GREAT but not so fun to put in.  One day left!  His 2-year check-up was great...he is apparently on the level of a beginning 3 year old so I'd say he's on track!  Here are some of the things he's doing now:

-knows how

 to spell his name

-name all of the colors (including magenta and gray)

-count up to 13

-name all of the shapes (including a crescent and an octagon!)

-still loves sucking his thumb

-not a very good eater...hates trying new things (unless it's

 sweet...he knows somehow!)

-talking in complete sentences (short ones =)

He weighed 32 lbs. and is 37 1/2 inches tall.  He's a big one!  Still off the charts of course!

On Sat. I went with Shannon, and my new recruit, Julie from high school, to an Uppercase event.  We had a great time getting updates with from the company and doing make and take projects.  LOVE getting new ideas!  The new Spring/Summer catalog has so many great ideas! 

After I got home, we noticed Caiden's ear draining...I've never seen this before.  There was actually liquid dripping out.  So wierd!  Back to the Dr. at 7pm on Sat. night (thank goodness the FastER on Renner!)  He had an ear infection but the tube that we couldn't see due to wax at his 2 year is still in his left ear and doing its job!!!  So, add ear drops and an antibiotic to the list!
