This morning we made a visit to our doctor's office, and along with pottying and getting stickers and having appointments for at least two family members, we tend to make ourselves at home! Erik had his six month appointment and is doing well. Still in the 95th percentile for height but dropped down a little bit in the weight percentile. He's still a big boy - just an ounce away from 19 pounds. He got his vaccinations and did not even cry for the first shot! Then after the next ones he only cried for about 10 seconds. We were amazed!
Dr. Brian also took a look at Wren because he's been coughing and waking crying at night (unlike him) and yesterday after a nap (also unusual at this point) while Scott was holding Wren, he fell asleep in his arms. That NEVER happens! So Wren does have an ear infection in one ear and Dr. Brian said he was surprised his other ear wasn't bothering him just as much because it was full of fluid too. So hopefully the amoxicillin will get Wren back to feeling better really soon!
Thanksgiving is only two and a half weeks away! Seems strange. We'll be putting up our Christmas tree the day or two after so my mom can join in on the tradition while she's here. So that means in three weeks we'll have a Christmas tree! Seems a bit early to me at this point, but it will be worth it to decorate it with my mom.
All of this is trivial when you consider that today... Scott mailed his book to the publisher! Scott has been working days, nights, and weekends for months to turn his book in on time to meet the deadline of the fourth year review committee for tenure, and he's finally at a point where he took a day off! Wowie! It was so great to have my husband back on Sunday. We haven't had a day like that for so long, it's ridiculous. And Scott feels good about his book, so we're happy. Well I'm happy. I think Scott is in shock. But I think it's safe to say that we're excited to move on!
