When I went to get Aud out of her crib yesterday morning, I turned on the light to find some big pink eyes looking back at me. It seriously looked like she'd been in a fight (and the other person won!)... both eyes were really red and her right eyelid was really pink and puffy. A clear case of pink eye!
I obviously couldn't take her to Shannan's, so I called school to ask for a sub (no one answered, and I didn't want to leave it on voice mail). Then I reconsidered and called Papa Doug and Weyla Marge - thank goodness for them! They readily agreed to take the poor little thing for the day. It actually turned out pretty well - I took Conner to school, then drove up to Milford and dropped off Audrey. My school was on a different schedule because of a test all the kids had to take, so my first class didn't actually start until 10:05 - that gave me some extra time.
Audrey didn't get much of an afternoon nap and fell asleep in the van on the way to pick up Conner... she actually slept through picking him up and a quick trip through the McDonald's drive thru. Conner was super good and stayed quiet (well, quieter than normal!) in the car so she could sleep.
He was good then, but a bear when it was time for bed. I don't know how many times I was "called" to come upstairs because there was something he just couldn't wait to tell me! At one point, I went up, and he said:
"Mom, do you know what I was doing while they were singing downstairs?" (I was down there watching American Idol.)
"I was dancing!"
Whose boy is this, anyway?
Only 5 more days of school!
