Sept. 19: Well Bryan and Andrew are probably in Indiana or Michigan at this point. They’re on their way to Ann Arbor for a weekend visiting some of Bryan’s old co-workers. They are planning to spend a lovely day tomorrow at Mark and Diane’s lakefront home. It should be a really good time. Meanwhile, Sylvia and I are holding down the fort here at home. We didn’t think Sylvie would be up for a seven hour drive, a day of play, and then another seven hour drive. She can be very vociferous about things she doesn’t like.
So Andrew did well at preschool today. His teachers said that his nose didn’t run too much:) This afternoon, Sylvia started running a low fever. When she went to bed this evening, it was about 101. I called the doctor, and they said that a low fever was probably a sign that her body is still fighting off that ear infection. Poor girl seems just about normal, but I think she’s still a little sick.
Then this afternoon, we were out on the front lawn together, and a bee landed on Sylvia and stung her on the arm! She was just sitting on the quilt minding her own business. Now I like bees in general, but if there are any bee-readers out there, please note that you are not allowed to sting my babies. Stay away. Sylvia cried a bit, but she recovered relatively quickly. At the end of the day, though, she still had an angry red welt on her sweet chubby arm.
I’ve uploaded some pictures from the last week. They can be found in the gallery.
