Pink Eye - Yup Pink Eye!

Well this week was quite eventful and not necessarily in the way you would hope for a week to go!  The week started out ok, but on Tuesday I got the call that Maci was finally taken over by the looming pink eye pandemic in her room at daycare, she was case number 11 - UGH!!!  So per daycare rules, I was off to pick her up, head to an ASAP doctor appointment to get some drops since she couldn't go back to daycare until she was on drops for 24 hours and then home in time for my afternoon conference calls. . . way to make a Tuesday exciting miss Maci!  Ahhh the joys of a working momma!  Fortunately pink eye is gross but doesn't make your poor baby miserable like RSV, coughs/colds, fevers etc.  She would slightly rub her eye and it only got goopy looking once.  Those drops work wonders and so does tea, a co-worker said to put a cotton ball in some warm tea and rub it over the eye and between the two she looked great by end of day Wednesday.  That is after Clint had to move around all of his schedule to be home with her on a Wednesday - like I said, quite the eventful week!

To remember the "The Pink of 2013" I had to take these pics of our cutie on the way to work.  I tell ya, she has a sense of humor that is just starting to come into its own - the 2nd one is her new go to face HA!  Oh and we don't imprison her, this is just how she hangs on her baby gate ;-)

In typical Maci fashion, even though she missed almost 2 full days of daycare this week, she would find a way to make up that missed "social" time the remainder of the week!  I say this a lot but we are so fortunate to send our daughter to a center that truly loves and cares for her the way we do, they all really seemed to miss her!

"Hey friends, do you see that I can walk and turn?"

 Look who is getting ready for Christmas!

Finally the week was over, WHEW!  We couldn't wait to have some R&R around this house.  I have realized Miss Maci has recently gotten way too much hair on top her head but it is in the awkward phase where it is super thick but still short.  I decided to get brave and attempt a ponytail, not only did she allow me to do this but she loved it!  It was like she knew how cute she looked ;-)  Maybe she is becoming a little more cooperative in her old age - 10 Months Today!  I will do some 10 Month Pics hopefully tomorrow.  =)

Well, we could go for a much quieter early part to this coming week - Thanksgiving week!!!  We hope Maci and I get over our lingering coughs before Grandma & Grandpa Gilroy get here because we can't wait for all the fun we have planned!

Until next time -
Lots of Love,
