TGIF

Life with two kids and a dog is messy.

The week started off with Nolan having a couple of throw-up episodes. He told us that his ear hurt, so we brought him to the pediatrician to see if he had an ear infection. Thankfully, she said that his ears were clear. We rewarded him for a good appointment by taking him to the ice cream shop, which he loved!

Then the dog got sick on Wednesday and wouldn’t eat her food. She had accidents in the house—very loose stool, which has never happened in the 4.5 years we’ve had her. Suffice it to say that one of our rugs is stained, and she has been confined to the kitchen since yesterday morning. We are grateful that she is active and doesn’t appear lethargic, so hopefully she’s on the upswing.

And of course, babies are messy too. I am SO glad that Ephraim hasn’t seemed to catch anyone’s colds or bugs, but there are never-ending diaper explosions and spit ups to clean up.

Steve has been gone a lot more than usual this week, so I am really excited for the weekend! Steve’s brother, Josh, has been home on his last college spring break. Nolan adores his bearded uncle :)
