So, today after pulling some weeds in the back yard for a half an hour I decided to take Katelynn over to Target to check out their toy clearance they have going on right now. It is definitly hit and miss of what you might find in the clearance but I bought $160 worth of toys for only $42. I got some Christmas presents for Katelynn, I know, she already knows what she is getting since she was with me, I am such a bad mommy! And some Birthday presents. I thought I was doing pretty good until I was putting the toys in the car and Katelynn was playing with the keys. She was hitting the buttons and I didn't know which ones she was pushing since she pushed it multiple times. I put her in her car seat put the keys in the front seat, closed the doors to put the cart away and then it came, the beep that all the doors were locked and Katelynn was in the car.
Great!
Panic for a milisecond and then call Ben since he was working in Clovis today. He was in Clovis and was near the house. So, he went and got his keys from home and then came to Target to unlock the doors.
Katelynn was in the car for 17 minutes. I am just glad that it wasn't the hottest part of the day and when I put her in the car I gave her her sippy that she drank all of while we were waiting. So, she was hydrated. She didn't even care that she was inside and I was outside. There was no crying or screaming. Just her staring at me through the window wondering why I wasn't getting inside!
So, how was your day?

Strep Throat
Last Saturday the 17th I was at work while Ben was at home with Katelynn the day was fine and everything seemed fine until she kept waking up ALL NIGHT LONG. She started sounding congested throughout the night and by morning she was draining like a faucet. We were up for the day at 5:30am. We all stayed home from church as we were all beat from the night and runny noses don't belong at church. She slept for an hour that day and had a fever up to 100.3F. We were hoping for a better night and she did sleep better but I didn't since I was worried about her not being able to breathe well. We were up again at 5:30am but she had a better nap and wasn't as drainy, so, I thought we were doing better. Nope.
Tuesday morning she woke up with a hoarse voice and I made an appointment with the ped for Wed, they were booked for Tues, I knew I needed to get here checked by Wed since I was working Thursday and I didn't want her to get worse for the babysitters.
Wed I took her in an she was positive for strep throat. I don't know where or how she got it since she isn't around that many kids or even adults besides Ben and I. So, she started on antibiotics and she is better now and doesn't have a hoarse voice anymore and isn't draining any where near as bad as she had. I am just glad that we have medicine available to help her feel better.
I hope you all had a better week.

Baby Love Letters #141
Share the Story with your child about a cherished object from the past.
At Grandma B's there are two end tables. They were filled with JcPenny and Sears Catalogs. We always loved looking through the catalogs and seeing the new clothes for school and looking at the toys that were coming out this year too. Sarah, Becca, and I were always playing with these chests. We would dump everything out of the chests and play hide and seek in them. We would use them for our forts and a place to put our feet up.
Grandma still has the chests. They had been filled with photographs for years until Grandma and Grandpa took a few weeks and filled a few photo albums so they are now empty. Now the Grandkids play with them. They were such a fun part of my childhood.
Here is Lily and Katelynn playing on one of them.

Couch and a video
Katelynn learned how to climb on to the couches this weekend and she is so proud of herself. She gets up there and starts giggling and bouncing everywhere. There have and will be a few crashes, mostly hurt feelings. She is also leaning over the couch arms and reaching for her books.
She can also stomp her feet on command and loves when we all join in.
