3 hours later...

I'm done at the clinic with the girls! Shelby was up most of the night with coughing and a fever. But of course, every time I went in there I was greeted with a smile and giggles....go figure. So, little Shelbs has another ear infection! Boggles my mind since Thursday I had her ear rechecked from the second ear infection and it was clear. Oh well! Halle had to have a chest x-ray done. Very interesting since she very much so dislikes being at the doctor. But, I have to admit, she tried her best and she did a very good job for the most part. Actually, the worst part about the trip was waiting for the prescription to be filled. With all of those enticing boxes, bags and bottles right at child level....I mean really, what were they thinking when they put those shelves in?
The doctor said he would have bet she had pneumonia, but the x-ray showed bronchitis more than anything.

So, both girls are home, Shelby's sleeping and Halle's going there shortly, and they both have had their first dose of antibiotics for the day! Whooopie!

Poor kiddos! I hope the meds kick in soon and they are feeling better. Yes, the shelves at stores are designed for maximum chaos with toddlers, aren't they?

Ahh yes, the clinic. We were there too today--only two hours though and thankfully, a negative strep test later! Just left with a crabby toddler and a crabby mama! :) Let's NOT get together this week with sick kids! Maybe next week??

Sounds like a rock solid plan Ehlan!

There are two kinds of people: Part One

This topic has been on my mind for quite a few years, and I always tell my ultra hip (yeah right) self, that I should write about it. So finally, after this last revelation that, yes, there are two kinds of people in this world, I needed to get it off my chest. There are two kinds of people in this world. "But Megan?" you quickly rebut, "No there's not! There are so many kinds of people in this world. Short people, tall people, loud people, introverted people, French people, people who like food, people who are allergic to grass, dog people, cat people, this list is endless." And to you I say, "Well of course." But  here's the deal. When it comes down to it. We are all, but one of two kinds of people. And I'll kindly, yet firmly, break it down for y'all. There are two kinds of people in this world. And you WILL fall under one of these categories. Are you ready? Here, I'll set the scene. You are walking down the sidewalk....

There are two kinds of people: Part Two - The non-movers

Coffee cup in one hand, veggie/fruit smoothie in the other. No seriously, that's what I have on each side of me as I write. I'm smiling because of how funny this is, as it seems to also relate to this conundrum of a topic before us. There are two kinds of people, and there are definitely two kinds of beverages.  My caffeinated beverage on my left brings me a one sided joy that I cannot even begin to detail. I love my coffee. And I really do think it loves me back. At least for a while. As I peer out of the corner of my eye to the right, I see the greenish grainy drink to my right. Today the fennel seeds in it do not make it seem as dirty  I mean, like I just gathered them from the dirt without rinsing and sprinkled them in there kind of dirty. Maybe it was the splash of OJ I decided to add to it this morning. Now, I know that this drink loves me. It is good for many aspects of my life. Health, energy, sustenance, power. But I do not enjoy it as much. When I make my ...

Who did we welcome home TODAY????

Shelby Capri Bergman 6 lbs. 5 oz. , 19.5 inches long May 30th, 2008 10:52 pm I just want you all to know that everything went picture perfect. She's beautiful, she's healthy and she's very content. I don't have a ton of pictures yet, my mom took pictures during delivery and I took some today when we got home, but since we don't have internet at home now, it will be slow coming! I had my membranes stripped at 9:45 am on Friday. Afterwards, Tom and I went to Walmart, Applebees's, my sister's classroom to help move some stuff (I supervised... I was a little sore), and then home. I took a nap and Tom started getting ready for supper. His 4 hour long, grilled ribs...and that is how the story begins! So we keep joking that I am going to go during his first trial run with the ribs. This starts at around 3:30 pm. Then, we run out of propane and start all over a...
