Antibiotics, Taxes &Automobiles


Well, this week has been one to remember. It started off with me getting a cold from hell. I had no voice at all and was miserable. Madi is still not feeling well on top of it. More on that a bit later. So, Wednesday morning, I was deliriously drove to work after a long night. I park in the underground parking lot of our building. On a normal day it's tight parking but on this day... Let's just say that my nice expensive white car met a red cement pillar. Ugghh. The insurance company called today and it's over 2k work of damage. Thank God for a $500 deductible. And for an understanding husband. He just laughed and said he was glad I was okay. I finally took Madi into the doc today. I had a feeling it was a little more than teething or a cold. And sure enough, she has a raging ear infection in both ears :( Poor little thing. Good note is, we did our taxes last night and we actually get a return this year! Yeah! Usually we owe because were in a crappy tax bracket. Too bad most of the return will go towards the car. On the bright side, I'm feeling better. Madi is on antibiotics. And I have a rental car! Things are looking up!

Teething


The Morgan household has been crazy as of late. Our jobs have been super busy, creating late nights and very early mornings. And to add to it, Mads is teething. Uggghh. Usually she is the most content little thing but not lately. She's up most the night :( There is only so much coffee in the world, and it's not cutting it lately! I went to the store today and bought every teether known to man! We'll see how they work out. Besides the teething, Madi is getting funner and funner by the day. I now get "Ma Ma" all the time. I still damn near cry every time she says it. We are working on "Da Da" now. She is crawling all over the house which is making for weekends spent baby proofing. I am realizing that our house is a death trap! What were we thinking with some of our furniture choices? I still look at her every day and can't believe how beautiful it is to be her Mom!
