Spring Break

Well, we have officially made it to spring break! It is a well needed break for all. It's been quite eventful for us. Friday night we celebrated Wade's mom's birthday. Saturday was our lazy day, but only because Kaden had another ear infection. We had to miss a birthday party. He had an ear infection in his left ear. Usually his right ear gives him trouble. It always seems to drain. We finally took him to the ENT (who we love and is awesome with Kaden) and the doctor gave him some awesome drops. That ear cleared right up. Saturday morning (2:30 - 5:30) Kaden was in horrible pain. He was yelling about his other ear hurting. He woke up with a 102 fever. So we started giving him drops in that ear. He had another appointment Monday. Everything was fine. We just have to keep giving him drops and bring him back to the ENT in a month. We're hoping his tubes will go ahead and fall out on their own. We will see.

Sunday we went to the zoo. Call us crazy I know. It was pouring down rain all the way there. We had planned to go and thought if it wouldn't work, we'd just go to the Children's Museum. But things could not have worked out more perfectly. We got the very first parking spot and while it was sprinkling when we got there, it stopped once we were in. It would sprinkle a couple of times, but we'd just go in the tropcial bird house where we were covered. But really, it managed to clear up while we were there. The kids loved it. Reagan of course loved the monkeys and Kaden loved the elephants and fish (Dory and Nemo of course). All of the animals were out and we didn't have to push and shove other people to see things. It was awesome. We saw the new giraff, Miles. He's so cute. We bought some popcorn on the way out and decided to feed the birds in the pond. We were bascially attacked. Reagan didn't want anything to do with the birds. It was great...so funny. The second we got in the car, it starting pouring down rain. We couldn't have timed it better. We went to the Rodeo yesterday. More on that to come!!!
