I was in a major funk for much of December. I feel much better now. I guarantee its these dang birth control pills. Maybe it'll keep gettin better.
Christmas turned out okay. Not wonderful, but okay. All my worries about pleasing everyone on Christmas morning were solved for me, though it wasn't pleasant. Mama ended up getting really sick Christmas Eve night. She threw up all night, and was still sick the next morning. Aunt Jeanette stayed up with her all night, and called me the next morning to tell me not to go over there. So we had breakfast at Paul's parents', then went to church, then had lunch at his Grandma's, then went to my Grandma's. We got home around 3:30-4 and just relaxed for a little while, then had supper at Paul's parents'. It was a long day. We ended up going to my Mama's the next night, when she was feeling better.
Claire acted funny off and on Christmas day, and that night was throwing up. The next day, she got a runny nose. We had an appointment Tuesday already for her 12 months shots, so we took her in. I'm so glad we did, because in addition to her cold, she had an ear infection. Her first one. :( She just finished up her antibiotics yesterday, and I think she's over it. She also started cutting her top 2 teeth over Christmas. Poor baby's been pretty miserable lately! One of the top teeth finally broke through last Saturday (12/31), and the other one is peeking through today.
At least she's been sleeping through the night again. With all the running around for Christmas, her bedtime routine got out of wack. Some nights she didn't go to bed until 10. But now she's back to bein asleep by 8:30, and sleeps until usually 6, sometimes later. Thankfully!! I'm sure lack of sleep affected me as well last month.
Paul and I are planning on a trip to Charleston next month for our 3 year anniversary. I'm so excited! It'll be a bit of a challenge with Claire, since it will probably be really cold and there's so much walking to do in that city, but we'll manage. It'll be great to get away, just the three of us.
Paul got me some jumps for Christmas, and I've been riding and jumping again. And having a ball! I forgot how much I love to jump. Poor Sunshine, though! I bet she's not happy with me, haha.
Okay this post is totally all over the place, but I'm in a good mood and my mind is cluttered. ( :
