Memorial Weekend too hot to handle...

Not in a good way, Annie's temp was 105. She had gone down to bed with a slight fever and then awoken at 3am with a fever of 105. She didn't want a Popsicle and that's when you know it's bad. Then the vomiting began. After that we decided to pull the trigger and go to the ER.

For her, the ER was worse than the fever. Annie hates to be held down. She did not want her pulse ox taken, and the humiliation of a rectal thermometer was more than she could handle. She cried non stop until she left via the automated sliding doors, new teddy bear in hand.

Over and over she screamed at the Drs and nurses. "All done? All done, okay?" All done okay? Okay? Okay? Then they try to bribe her with a bear. She threw it at them. That's my kind of girl.

At 4:30 we left the ER with the $500.00 "watch and wait diagnosis." I wonder if well be charged for the tainted Bear???

Who is more upset Daddy or Annie?


This is Annie's wall of terror.



I. am. not. happy.

"Kuh"

Annie loves to "kuh" or color for the rest of us. Considering we showed the aftermath of Annie coloring on our white furniture, I thought we should at least show her doing it the right way. She has to kuh at least 4 times a day and it's her current favorite morning activity.

Dim Sum

Sunday morning Dim Sum is a Gottlieb/Dennis Woods family tradition. It's my favorite kind of brunch. And today Annie really joined the clan. She ate almost all the food we gave her to try, and to make it better, attempted to use chopsticks. A girl after my own heart. I guess wont feel so bad the next time Annie calls the Thai food delivery guy "mama". She just loves all of her Asian Cuisine!

Uncles are too much fun!!!

Sunday Funday!

Sunday afternoon was spent in the back yard hanging out with the family...doesn't get much better than when we are all here!







Grammy it's your turn to be "It" I give up!

Congrats to Andrew and Rochelle

My cousin Andrew had a beautiful engagement party Saturday night at the home of Dr. Peter (Pete) Mehas and Demi Mehas. It was a lot of fun to see everyone again. In a way it makes me sad that we only have a few cousins left to get hitched because we will need to find a new reason to get together every year!

The beautiful couple.

Water Table No. 3

How lucky are you when you are less two years old and have not one, not two, but THREE water and sand tables to play with at home, at Grams house and at Grammy and Grumps' house! Annie clearly loves No. 3 as much as No. 1!


Jellies were cool in the 80's and my mom SWEARS they still are...should I trust her?
