ear wax

I can't believe our little Ep is already six months old. And actually at this point he is 6 1/2 months old. Christmas came and went, New Year's came and went. Yadda, yadda, it was all good. Everything is good. Done with the casualties now.

So today I took Ep to the doctor because I suspected an ear infection. Nope, just a big ball of wax. She stuck her little light in his ear and she said, "Oh my, I can't even see because of all this wax." Then she went and got this long and skinny instrument and dug the wax out of his ear and I thought that Ethan was probably wetting himself he was so excited. His little eyes started fluttering about and he looked a bit comatose. So that's over and so is the wax. I wanted to bring one of those things home with me, but she had the eagle eye on me. Pretty sure she smelled that I wanted it.

booo

So baby E has his first official illness and we were in the ER for about five hours on Saturday evening. Booo. It wasn't a total surprise since Benjamin had his cold just a few days prior. The odd thing about the hospital visit was that they suspected a urinary tract infection. Weird, huh? Poor kid had to get a catheter and he was NOT impressed with that all. Not at all. Still haven't heard the results from that, but I'm highly doubtful. So we were sent home with an inhaler, which is great since it might save us a trip next time!

So exciting!

Wow, what an exciting week around the Gilliland house. (Warren's excitement is that he got a new tv today.) Ethan has been regularly turning over and he has recently discovered his feet. What a fun time for him! I think that this marks the end of his bouncy chair (at least unsupervised time anyway) and the end of his bassinet. (which, btw, was the most absurd 150 bucks ever spent) I think it's time for some better carpeting and padding... I knew I kept that carpet padding for a reason!

Diabetic

I could seriously turn in to a diabetic. Ethan is soooooooooooo sweet, cuddly, and just is just the happiest baby ever. EVER. He laughs all the time. He does demand to be held and/or talked to most of his waking hours though. He does not like tummy-time, which is odd for me since Benjamin could roll over both ways at 3 months flat. They look so much alike, yet they are completely different children. Thank goodness. haha..

baby talk

If Ethan could talk, this is what I imagine he would say:

"Mommy, please keep the planes from waking me up."
"Mommy, please keep Benjamin from waking me up."

Poor kid.

Sleepy.

Enough said about my lack of blogging.
