Presentations & Ear Infections

Just 'cause she's so darn cute in footed pj's (which she doesn't like!)

Her favorite "book": The photo album of our beach trip!

Blake giving his reading of his story...

"Pride"

Bryce reading his paper...

Weird title eh? Well, we've had both going on this week! Working on our creative writing & presenting our work. Blake & Bryce both have wonderful imaginations (sometimes almost too creative as James & I have joked that they've lived in 'pretend-land' for most of their childhood!!!). So, asking them to write about any subject usually produces a great story full of adventure. Myself, I don't like to get up in front of a group of two or more & talk or read or anything else for that matter! I would LOVE for my children to have the skill of presenting and voicing their opinions/research/work, etc. as they grow up.

On the ear infection front...yes, C has yet ANOTHER one! UGH! Poor girl! This marks #5 for the year so we are on 'the bubble' & discussing tubes. We go back in one month for an "ear check". Our regular pediatrician is in China right now bringing home his little girl. EXCITING! So, we saw a different Dr. today, but I really like him....so...I'll keep you updated about the tubes.

It has been REALLY cold here by Texas standards & we've been bundling up to do our errands. Thank goodness for on-line shopping & UPS is all I have to say!!!!! Have a great weekend everyone.
