Quick update . . .

A few weeks back Colton said, "Mine ear hurts mama" so we took him to the Dr and sure enough he had a very bad ear infection in his left ear.  Then the Dr. had us schedule a three week follow up to make sure that the antibiotic cleared it up.  Well, his three week check up was just this past Monday and since he has been acting like his happy little self lately, we thought everything was going to be fine.  So, turns out he currently has ear infections in both ears.  She could see infectious water sitting in the 'middle ear' in both ears.  So, this made me feel bad because Colton apparently thinks that this pain is his norm.  When the Dr. shined the little light in his left ear, he hugged close to me and said, "oww, oww, oww, that hurts".  She told us that his infected ears are going to be very sensitive to wind and bright lights.  (Just that tiny little bit of light shining in his ear caused him pain)  So, Monday we started a stronger dose of anitibiotic.  Needless to say, this medicine also doesn't taste as good as the first one so as soon as he takes it, he starts trying to wipe off his tongue and wants to drink more milk.  We are thankful he is at least taking it and not spitting it out!  So, hopefully this clears it up and at our next follow up appointment both ears will be looking better. 

Austin told me Monday that Zoey is his girlfriend.  Then he tells me this morning that Tatum is his girlfriend and that he is married to Sophie.  So, this got a little conversation going about how he should probably only have one girlfriend at a time.  Plus, he thinks that everytime Brian kisses me that we are getting married again.  Which, means that he has kissed Sophie at daycare/preschool at some point.  (which he confirms and we then talked about how he should not be kissing people at daycare/preschool.)  Then he told me his boyfriends name was Eli.  Colton's girlfriends name is Charlee and so on.  So, obviously if you are his friend and you are a boy then you qualify as boyfriend and if you are a girl, you are a girlfriend.  So, the topic changed to something else, when

Austin asks, "Do you know who my favorite girlfriend is?" 
Me, "No, you have quite a list" 
Austin, "My mommy is my favorite girlfriend and the baby in your belly is my best girlfriend." 

Super adorable and I told him that he should keep it that way for a long time to come.
