Our Lil' Lovebug: Is the end of the week here yet?

Oh what a long week it has been. I already told you that Gracie was sick earlier this week. Well, I took her to the doctor yesterday and my suspicions were correct, it was yet another ear infection. We saw a different doctor, which ended up being a great thing. He reviewed Gracie’s history and realized that her ear infections usually happened during high allergy seasons. So he decided that Gracie needed to be on allergy medicine. We are going to try it every day for a full month to see if her congestion gets better, on top of her runny nose, snoring, and every thing else that comes with having chronic congestion. So I am hopeful this works, although I do have to admit I am apprehensive about having her on medicine every day. But I am going to take it day by day and see what happens.

Even though Gracie is healing from an ear infection, doesn’t mean that she isn’t herself. She has been on fire lately. Everyday she asks to watch “Dorda on the PB.” Goodbye Elmo, hello Dora. Everything is about Dora. Now don’t worry, we still love Wonder Pets and Yardi (Backyardigans), but if she has a choice, it’s going to be Dora. She has a few favorite and new things lately:

She will take her shopping cart, push her baby around, and go “hopping.”

We are still working on the potty training. She now tells us that her diaper is wet and will take it off THEN go potty. Kind of defeats the purpose if you ask me, but we will figure it out in due time.
She loves sitting at her table. Gracie drags that thing all around the house and put it in where ever she wants it!
