I guess we don't have it bad in comparison, but when we put her to bed, she tends to get out 2-3 times before she finally goes to bed. Last night I was feeding Jon, Jeff had to go to the bathroom, and Jess took it upon herself to put herself to bed. We laughed and laughed. Jeff said, boy I've got the easy one. Well I knew it wouldn't last. We went downstairs and sure enough, her usual 2-3 times... Where's Mama bit.... but she does go right back to bed, no fight.

We were so tired, we went to bed and were asleep by 10pm... it was amazing, I woke up twice before midnight thinking I had slept for hours. I woke up around 230am and had to go to the bathroom, but just layed there.... Jess got up, passed our room, went to the gate, maybe she thought we were downstairs still??? hahhaa..... came back, and said she had to go potty. Ok... I'll get up with you, even though you need no help, as long as I don't have to change sheets again, I'll do anything. She was crying, and I thought she wet herself, but she didn't. I think she still doesn't understand she can get up and go potty whenever she wants, without telling us. Maybe she was upset she had to wake up??? Who cares I told her... I wake up several times a night to do the very same thing, no big deal.

She slept until 8am, so did Jon, that was great. Although I was a bit rushed to get us to my doctor's by 845am, we were a little late, but who cares... we always have to wait for the doctor, I like giving it to them once in a while. It went by fairly fast, we were out of there by 930am. I have what I thought I had, it's like a form of swimmer's ear because of all the fluid back up. So she gave me some samples of nose spray (ugh, I hate them) to help with the congestion, and then a prescription for ear drops. She had to choose a certain brand because the rest were not approved for pregnancy.

I went to Walgreens, right by my doctor's office. I waited in the parking lot, and then they said they didn't have it, they called 4-5 walgreens in the area, they don't have it. So I tried CVS, they didn't have it either, ugh. So after a wasted half hour with two kids in the car, I said fine, just order it, and it will be ready after 2pm tomorrow, ugh. So... I suffer with an ear ache until then, but what other choice did I have. We were just leaving the parking lot, and I heard the dreaded words a mother doesn't want to hear from a newly potty trained kid.... Mama, I have to go potty. Ugh........ We were only a mile away from home, so I said hold it... and drove as fast as possible...... Ran in the house... and we made it, phew........

Jess was very excited to go to gymboree today, it has been 2 weeks. She seems to be all better... Jon has the occasional cough and sneeze, Jeff has sinus pressure, and it's just me left with all this crap. The doctor said pregnancy usually makes all this worse. Another perk... right?!?!?!
