All better

SEE YA! TWISTER AND I ARE OUTTA HERE!


YEAH, I LIKE CHEERIOS, WHAT OF IT? (notice the one stuck under her chin)

Ginny-bear is up and running again. Turns out she had Roseola. The day after the last post she broke out in a rash, which the nurse had been asking about and told us to expct. It only lasted 2 days, and didn't appear to be causing her any discomfort. She still enjoys blocks, peeking out of her tent, and long Tigger rides in the sunset.

More fever

Ginny is still dealing with her fever today. She has been a little more irritable though, so that is bothersome. She will be going to the Dr tomorrow if she wakes up with a fever again. We'll still have to get up tonight to continue checking on her, which is a real drag. Getting up every three hours, even if you are only up 5 minutes (one time it was 40 though), still really wears you out!

Ginny's other favorite activity is playing in her Pooh tent. This is a tent that I found for $4 at a garage sale, I think it has been the best toy she has yet. Every morning she crawls in, and giggles, sits for a second, and then peeks out to see if you are watching for her. I usually say, "Where did Ginny go, I lost her again..?" and then, "OH! THERE SHE IS!!!" She just laughs and laughs and thinks this is the greatest game ever.

Uncle Brian is visiting today and played in the tent with her. I don't know if she quite knew what to make of her tent getting up and walking. haha.

fever

Ginny is not feeling too well today, she woke up with a fever. I took her to the Dr this morning, wanting to be sure it was not another ear infections. Ears, ok, "viral" i was told. So, she has been on tylenol and motrin all day. She is happy for the most part when the fever is down, I have been told that is a godd sign.

Ginny is still thinking about walking. She is standing up on her own for longer periods of time, but still sits and then crawls to get where she wants to go. I don't think it will be much longer before she is doing her first steps. Her first molar is almost completely through now.

Her hair continues to get thicker and thicker, and a little bit longer too. I am attachign a picture of her favorite night time activiy, bath time! Notice that although she has many bath toys, she is not happy unless she can also get the soap bottles in the tub, which I now hide b/c I was worried about a cap getting loose and too much soap giving her an infection. Worry worry.

Ginny's other favorite activity is what Bill calls Tigger Jetskiing. She has a Tigger rocking horse, which he pushes her on. This has now evolved to pulling (with pajamas) and she stands up, often bending her knees, pumping her butt up and down, like she is on a jetski, taking the waves. SO cute. We have a couple videos, which will go on you tube later!

goodnite, until two horus, for me, which is when I have to get up and check Ginny Bear's temperature again.

OOpsie

Yep, its been a long since there has been an update, and of course there are a lot of things to share, but Ginny is currently in the hall crawling this way (almost bedtime milk time) so the opportunity still is not presenting itself. Horrible. There are at least some new youtube videos up, with little blurbs, so you can SEE for yourself all of the growing up she has done lately! I will be on here to blog more later. There is just soooo soo soo much to do in my "down time" when she naps. Like cook, clean, clean some more, do dishes, watch Chino kill a cat, you know, everyday Mommy and Wife stuff.
So, enjoy our new videos of our quickly growing girl!!

I should note that at this time (8 pm here) that videos are uploaded and still uploading. Then they have to "review" them, so it may be a couple hours until they are ready!
