ears, programs, and steps - oh my!

By Tuesday last week, little b's ear was having bright orange drainage.  Our school nurse happened to be working in town that day, so I took him to see her.  She said it was time to call the ENT.  I took him over on Thursday last week, where he ended up having to have his ear suctioned out because the infection had totally packed his tube.  The poor baby didn't cry until they put the drops in his suctioned-out ears but it was short lived, as when I was I was able to pick him up he was OK.  We're now on ear drops 2x/day for 10 days, then 1x/day for 10 more days, as well as an oral antibiotic 2x/day for 10 days.  *sigh*

B-man had his kindergarten program on Wednesday last week.  It was so cute, and I was glad my school was done for the summer so I could attend! I can't believe that Wednesday afternoon, he'll be a 1st grader.  Where did the time go??

And the baby has been very brave in letting go of things while he's standing.  You can tell he wants to walk soooo bad - this weekend he'd stand and get mad because it's like he couldn't make his legs go!  This morning, however, he took three steps from me to Josh!  He'll be figuring it out so soon!
