Dragon and Wamommy - Sounds like you two had the same bug that hit our house last week. Thankfully I was able to shake it after four days, but grandparents chipped in and let me take a couple of naps. I also doubled up on my vitamins and fruit intake! I hope you two get to feeling better.
Exciting news about the carseat! Glad that you were able to find an updated model that still works with the stroller.
The past two days Teagen has fought her naps. I think we are officially transitioning from two naps down to one. This morning instead of trying to get her to go to sleep at 10:30 I allowed her to stay up until she started becoming cranky at noon. Now she is sound asleep on the bed and I'm actually enjoying a HOT lunch. But we did do a bunch of stuff before nap such as talk to chickens, find an egg, pet some sheep, swing on her outside swing and play with rocks. We have a rare spot of sunshine so I took full advantage of the lull in the rain and played outside for as long as possible.
I doubt anyone remembers, but last year DH went through the process of getting his TWIC, MMC and passport renewed so he could try to find employment that he would enjoy upon a ship. Well, we've applied to over 60 companies and no one has even called him back... until! A friend of a friend posted a position on FB that DH qualifies for with a name and number to the head of HR for a cruiseline. DH has phone interviews with them for the next two days. Then he has another friend who is checking with his head-head hunter about a position with his shipping company. It only took a year, but things are looking up.
In other not so fantastic news my mom just found out she has to get her hip replaced. But after her two knee replacements as well as my dad's they are very well acquainted with the surgeon.
Yesterday we went to the feed store to check on prices for animal supplies. They had the most adorable baby chicks! Teagen was enthralled and signing "chicken" the entire time. I had to bodily drag her away so we could finish shopping. As we were walking through the store she starts signing dog and runs over to a bunch of dog toys. Now, no one had said the word "dog" nor was there a picture of a dog on the bin only the word. I leave you to draw your own conclusions. Signing Time shows the word, says the word and signs the word...
