I will say this . . . I had some major regret on Sunday . . . and it wasn't leaving my kids behind. Simply put - I ate sooo much.
I'm not sure where I lost control.
It might have been in France with the French Onion Soup. Or in North America with the Boston Crab Cake with Corn and Barley Salad. The Pepperberry Prawns with Sweet Potato Hash that I ate in Australia were definitely after I lost control. No questions there.
It was a wonderful ADULTS ONLY day! Can you tell we were happy to be without children at Disney? In fact, we joked with the couple we went with at the parents that had their children in tow. Don't get me wrong, we often look like those couples with strollers stuffed to full capacity with diapers, sippy cups, etc and screaming children because it is 2pm and nap time is sorely needed. However, for 1 day a year, it wasn't us.
So back at home, my dad was caring for our 2 heaven sent blessings. So easy to say after a full day away from them. And our daughter was cooking up ANOTHER ear infection.
Under his care, I might add.
This is ironic because my dad touts his refined, he would call it
'perfected', care of our children. To those who don't know him,
it's endearing - not condescending. What parent doesn't love
when another adult wants the best with regards to their children?
So . . . back to ANOTHER ear infection. A double ear infection to boot! How? I don't get it. The thrashing and arching of the back when we lay her flat and her unending clingy-ness now makes sense. In the context of a double ear infection, that is. So we medicate and love on her. Hopefully some TLC will make it easier on her.
Sick babies are just down right pathetic.
Unrelated pictures to follow. Pictures of a crying baby or a picture of her infected inner ears not so endearing.
Here are her One Year photos.
