An early start to a great day!

We had a really early appt. for Bradley at the ENT to re-check his ears. This is his first visit since he had tubes put in. Thankfully, his ears look great!! He won't need to come back for another 4 months. While we were there, I decided to be "gutsy" and ask Dr. Dempsey if he would look at Rachel's ears. He said they were infected and one had fluid in it, so I had to call the pediatrician and ask for a referral to see the ENT the right way. Silly insurance and all the crazy rules! But, at least we don't have to go see the pediatrician AND the ENT. Anyway, I know the kids are as sick of going to the dr. as I am, and since Rachel has been begging to go to Chuck E. Cheese for a couple of weeks now, we ended up there today. We got there at 10 and just stayed for an hour, but it was a much needed change of pace than doctor's visits and grocery stores. We didn't even have to buy any coins since the last time we went, Gege bought $20 worth. Papa met us there and we had the whole place to ourselves. Guess everyone's at school on Wednesday mornings! It was so much fun!



For the past two days we have been home while a tile repairman was fixing our shower. We didn't do too much except laundry and play, but it was nice to be home. But, today we were really ready to get up and go somewhere.

Also, Nick and I got to celebrate Valentine's Day one day early by going to eat On the Border tonight. It was delicious even though I gorged myself on chips and salsa! I just don't have any control when I eat mexican food! We were also able to finally pick out the kids' Valentine's presents without them being with us. I decided books were the way to go this year, so we went to Barnes & Noble and picked out a few. They really love reading books and we love reading to them, but Nick and I get tired of the same old ones! So, the new books really benefit us both.
