July 21st
This past week was busy, fun and sleepless. Ethan had his 6 month well baby check on Thursday, he is 18.6 pounds 76%, 26 inches 36%, and head 18 inches 97%, the boy has lots of brains, the doctor said that his ear was a little red and had some fluid but thought that it could be left over from the last ear infection. Eric went cat fishing on Friday night with friends and he took his dad too. They didn't get home until about 2am. I know this because Ethan woke up screaming at 1am and didn't quit till about 4am then was up again at 6am. We started to have the feeling that the little red ear might be another ear infection. We went to the Tator Days parade Saturday early afternoon and then I headed to the doctor with Ethan, and yes another ear infection, we then all went to a wedding reception for a softball buddy of Eric's. The girls danced their hearts out, we all had a great time. Ethan is not doing very well with this ear infection, up every night, and he is now been sleeping in his bouncy seat upright. Sunday we had our friends son Jace's birthday party. It was a pool party and everyone had a great time. The party was at Jace's grandparents, they heated the pool and it felt like a bathtub, even the babies enjoyed it. We got home Sunday night and all went to bed early. It will be another busy week with swimming lessons, and softball.

The past few months
SO it has been a long time since I blogged, It is amazing how busy it is having 3 kids. Just trying to get through the day is tough but then throw in work and the normal housework it is crazy there is never enough time in the day.
Eric is going strong at work. He has been able to take time off this summer. Last summer he worked every weekend and we never saw him. Eric has been busy with softball every Wednesday night. We try to go and watch on early game nights but those have been far and few. He went on a fishing trip with the softball boys in June for a week and had a couple of bachelor parties. He has been able to get a few golf games in also.
Me, well I have been working on trying to keep things moving. Between doctor appointments, activities and all the daily living things I have been super busy. Last week I had the week off of daycare and spent all week repainting the living room, dinning room, kitchen, hallway and the stairway. I had help from my sister who flew in to help organize and paint. We got a lot done. Eric took a couple days off to help too. It is amazing how fast time sure goes. This week is back to daycare and routine as much as possible
Kaylee has been busy with t-ball. Grandma Mary has been taking her every Tuesday and Thursday morning. Kaylee has had 2 games and her final game is tonight if weather permits. She also have started swimming lessons last night, they are every night for the next two weeks. She is a busy 6 years old girl we celebrated her birthday about 6 times in the past few months.
Mya has also started swimming lessons; she is not as excited to get her face wet as Kaylee is. Mya is the mother hen when it comes to baby Ethan she is always worried about her and trying to take care of him. Mya is also potty training, it is slow going but we are hoping she can master it by middle of August so she can go to preschool in the fall. We are keeping our fingers crossed.
Ethan has had a busy few months with his RSV in March and then a month later with having acid reflex, switching doctors, a double ear infection and another ear infection he has been a busy boy in and out of the doctors. For the past month we have been struggling with formula since I was not able to keep nursing, we think we have settled with soy, which Kaylee was on also so it wasn’t a big surprise. He finally seems to be progressing and a happy baby. Soon we will be starting solid food for him.
Hopefully I won't wait so long to post again.
