Poor Buddy

Poor Jayden just can't win. We headed to the doctor today because he had been running a temp on and off the entire weekend. His right tube is clogged which has caused an ear infection. His nurse practitioner, who we love, told me that we need to let doctor know on the day of his surgery so he can put a new tube in or clean his current tube out. He had red enlarged tonsils too. Yesterday was day ten of antibiotics and we started a new kind today. I can't wait for this child to feel better, start eating, and go a long period of time without medicine. I hate that he has to have surgery again at such a young age, but as the doctors put it, they have never seen a child needs tonsils out as bad as he does at such a young age. We have been practicing eating popsicles because that will be an important food group following his surgery!
 However, when he is sick (which is all the time) he gets his way 100%. His daddy took him on a 4-wheeler ride out to see the horses tonight. He loves the 4-wheeler so much that he pretends to drive it himself. Thank goodness he doesn't have any allergies and is able to be an outdoors men like his dad!
 He saw an airplane when he was out there tonight and was obsessed and couldn't stop looking at it. That allowed me to take a picture of his pretty, long eyelashes and big brown eyes.
In other news, the basement is 9 days away from carpet. A few walls still need to be painted and some other things done here and there, but it is getting closer!
 Someone found his dad's pencil and made a straight line on the wall, so someone else helped him write his name with the words of "never again can you write on the wall".
 But, it made him REALLY happy! Of course it did--any destruction a 2 year old boy does makes them happy!
 The floor is getting grouted and coming right along!
The walls in the front bedroom are officially pink. I think we need a white stripe around the room and a brighter pink down at the bottom. We will see what we have time for in the next 9 days because Jayden's room still needs painted too.
