Weekend Update

1) We've gone through the past 5 days without a pacifier. How did you do it you ask? Well, that's simple...my child decided on Thursday evidently that he didn't need it any more and went to bed without asking for it. He's asked for it maybe 3 times since but went along his merry way when we told him Paci went bye-bye. YIPPEE!

2) Saturday was our family's annual holiday bash at the Logansport Carousel. Had an awesome time...will post pics once I have all of them.

3) Went to the ER last night after Alexander woke up gasping for air. It was the croup as I expected. We soon learned that not only did he really give up the Paci for good because he didn't' ask for it at the Hospital but he is really learning how to cope in any situation. He only cried once when I told him he couldn't run around the room. After a dose of really strong steroids he seemed better so they let us go home around 2am. He is taking a nap now and seems to be doing ok. Never been so scared let me tell ya!

4) We are officially on the countdown to Santa. Our child is ramped up about the presents and cookies and milk. That's all he talks about! Well, that and Meme and Krystal and his Aunt Chachi and Angie. That kid loves his aunts let me tell ya!

5) I have 3 days of work until I have a week+ vacation. We're going to Chicago for a few days to the Shed Aquarium and probably Nike Town knowing Ricardo and to have dinner with my best friend (one of them) and her family. Seriously, cannot wait!
