Lately my house has gotten
out of control. We never seem to have time to clean. I brought
home pizza for dinner and there wasn’t an empty surface
anywhere to put it down on. Yuck! Alan and I did a quick blitz
tonight and now we can see the floor and counters again.
Yay!

More importantly, we had a great
weekend. The weather was beautiful, the ceremony was sweet, and
the company was fun. I’ll post more pictures when I can. There
was a church thing (I forget what it’s called) just before the
ceremony and Father Joe invited a dozen or so elderly women to
stay and watch the wedding. It was cute. I think they all
enjoyed the ceremony and watching Lex in his little outfit
babbling and cruising around the church.

The only downside to the weekend is that Lex ended up more
sick than before. He was running so hot and cold. Sometimes he
seems fine, other times he’s a wreck. Sunday morning we went
out to breakfast and Lex was bascially lathargic for most of
the morning. Right towards the end he sat up, popped his plug
out of his mouth, and started babbling and smiling. It was so
cute. He ate Cheerios and banana and then slept the whole way
home.

This morning when we woke up Lex
was a mess. He was moaning and pitiful and hot and very unhappy
and just wanted to be held and cuddled. We kept him home from
daycare and ended up taking him to the pedi this afternoon.
Diagnosis — raging ear infection. I guess the first round of
antibiotics two weeks ago didn’t quite clear things up. Poor
baby. It’s so hard trying to guess at what’s wrong. So many
things have similar symptoms and then he’s completely happy
sometimes and we think all is well. Hopefully these other
antibiotics do the trick. Baby needs to be healthy for his
birthday party :)
