Outings and Back to Work

We have gone on a couple of family outings over the last week.  On Wednesday we went to Community day at the track with Emma's class.  They had face painting, balloon animals, and bounce houses for the kids along with all sorts of race related things.  Unfortunately it was really overcast and windy on Wednesday and then it ended up raining which cut the day short but the kids all seamed to have a good time.  Before we left Drew decided that he wanted to drive around the track.  Fun for even the BIG kids.

The girls with their Balloons.  The boys decided to get their faces painted instead.

 

 

Today we decided to take a trip to Connor Prairie to check it out.  It is kind of like Spring Mill or the Boyhood  Memorial but on a larger scale.  It was nice to walk around and see all the different things and Emma really enjoyed it.

At the Indian Section.  

 They have a big hot air balloon that is open some days that you can go some 300 feet in the air in.  It was not going today unfortunately

Right as we got out to the track on Wednesday I got a call from the HR lady at CTI group offering me an accounting job.  I had 3 interview with them over the last couple of weeks and they paid off.  I start on Tuesday so hopefully it will be a great job.  Also hopefully Freddy will do good at the sitters and figure out that he needs to take a bottle. 

Freddy still is not rolling over but he is close.  He can get is feet over but not the top half.  Also Freddy has found his feet and likes playing with them and putting them in his mouth.  Unfortunately I have not gotten any pictures of that yet.  So far Freddy has had all of the vegetables and has loved every one.  We are just finishing up with Squash and then will start on the Fruits this week. 

5 Months old, Food, and Amoxicillin

Mom and dad came up to visit us over the weekend and we had an indoor picnic for supper on Saturday night.  Vince and Sandy were over for supper as well which made for a very nice get together.  We had home aid hamburgers, onions, mushrooms, and all the fixings along with chips and then cake for desert in honor of Mothers Day.  Emma loved all of the extra attention.

Freddy turned 5 Months old on Saturday.  According to the doctor on Monday he is 28.5 in long and 22lbs 2oz with cloths on. 

 We started giving him baby food on Saturday.  By Emma's choice we started him on peas which he seams to really like.

 Freddy has yet to roll over.  He will roll to his side but beyond that he seams quite content to go no further most of the time. One of these days he will go all the way.  He is moving though but only in circles.

Both Emma and Freddy are currently on Amoxicillin.  Emma woke up last Tuesday screaming and saying that her right ear was hurting.  We gave her some Advil and she seamed to be better but we called and scheduled a Dr. appointment for her anyway.  Her doctor said that we caught the ear infection right at the beginning.   As for Freddy he has been really congested for the last week and then yesterday he did not want to eat so I took him into the doctor afraid that he had an ear infection as well.  Good new was that he did not have an ear infection.  Bad news is that he has a bronchial infection so now he is on amoxicillin also.  If the amoxicillin does not work then he is going to have to take albuteral syrup.  Their doctor seams to think that Freddy will probably be diagnosed with Asthma when he is older.  I can only hope not.
