Sick again...



I think evil eye pics are hilarious. So does my dad - this one's for you Dad!
























Sick eye. Apparently this is a phlyctenule or a bacteria that got into his eye. It took a pediatrician, and ER doc, and a pediatric ophthalmologist approximately 8.5 hours to figure it out. Luckily the medicine cleared it right up. This is actually the the day after he started meds - it was much worse the day before.
In addition to his poor eye, Charlie had double ear infections again. And, as a matter of fact, I also had double ear infections - and a sinus infection. It was a fun couple of weeks!








Charlie insisted on holding four pretzel sticks and his milk cup all at once. It took some doing but he eventually got it.


















Adam and I celebrated my birthday a couple weeks ago by going out to dinner to our favorite Thai place. One of my lovely visiting teachers babysat for us so we could go kid-free. What a nice change! We actually attempted to get Indian food first (my fave) but had a terrible experience at our formerly favorite Indian restaurant, Bombay Gaylord. The guy was such a jerk! We have been going there for about four years and always get pretty much the same thing which requires them to add raisins to a particular dish. We've been getting the exact dish with the exact modification for well over a year now. When we tried to place our order we were very curtly told they would not add raisins and we could only order exactly what was on the menu. I politely asked if there was any way they could work with us as we'd been getting the same thing at that same restaurant for so long. Nope. I told them they were our favorite local Indian restaurant but that we would take our business elsewhere if they couldn't work with us and provide us with the same addition they always had. He very rudely told me that was fine and walked away. I could not believe it. We've been going there for years and they wouldn't add raisins to my dish. Give me a break. So we will not be eating there ever again. Jerks.












Charlie found a new love in ketchup.
