Violin

Reagan is doing great with violin. Today we had to go to the teacher's home for her lesson. Reagan did great. She played and followed along with her teacher very well. I was so happy. I even got video of her playing along.

Hopefully next week she will keep doing better.

Sippy cup already

We tried a sippy cup about a month ago and Maddy didn't seem that interested in it. Jim gave her a sippy cup with formula on Saturday and she took a little bit from it, but not 100% interested in it.

Last night, she was up all night. Every time she got up, she drank a whole bottle. So after 8 bottles in under 24 hours, I thought I'd try a splash of juice in a sippy cup.
She loved it. Wow!

Going to the doctor

Maddy went to the doctor today. She's got a bad cough and seems a tad "off". She also has a dinged up toe. The good news is that the doctor said her ears looked good, but that she probably had a cold. So he gave us a script and said to give it to her towards the end of the week if she was worse.

She got worse. I took off at 6:30 PM to get my hair done. Jim called at 7:15 and said she had spiked a fever of 102.5 and that she was miserable. He called my mom for hep and I hurried home as soon as I could.

We gave her meds and she is still restless. I'm hoping that she sleeps all night.

Maddy's toe

Maddy's toe is messed up. Poor thing. We noticed her nail a few days ago - it was "bunched up" toward the cuticle and an off yellow color. Today she seemed to be favoring her foot by walking on it sideways.  The closer I looked, it seemed that her nail is actually separated from the back of her nail bed and had bled a bit. I'm wondering if it will fall off. Guess I should take her to the doctor on Monday.

Maddy's got her third tooth

Maddy's top left tooth is through the gums today. Happy 10 month bday kiddo.

BIting

Well, I've said for some time that I think Maddy will have a biting issue. Tonight, she leaned over an bit me. I was shocked. Is this my little girl? Yep, and she's going to be the one that gets kicked out. :)

I peed

Tonight, we hung out with our neighbors. The kids played and the adults hung out. Part way through the night, the kids were playing with bubbles. I was in and out of the house taking care of Maddy. I looked up while I was feeding Maddy and realized that Reagan's pants were soaked. I thought it was odd. When I asked her, she said "I peed" but she said it like she was kidding, so I blew it off on the "bubble accident".

Later, I was in the house putting Maddy down and in comes Reagan and Jim. She had peed. Wow.

What he told me later was when he realized that her pants were soaked, he asked her quietly why. Her answer was loud and bold! She stood there with her hands out to the side and leaned into her answer "because I PEED DAD!"

nice
