Sunday, January 31, 2010All the world's a stage..."I walk slowly when I'm dressed pretty because when I'm dressed pretty I feel like I'm up on a stage and I walk slowly because I'm shy." This while walking to the car in the garage.

Saturday, January 23, 2010Uma's first ear infectionUma got her first ear infection ear-lier this week. She had to stay home from preschool for 3 days, as she had a cold as well. We got her diagnosed early on Wednesday, but the first course of antibiotics was unsuccessful. When I returned from work yesterday, her fever was nearing 104. We got a different kind of antibiotic, so we'll see how that goes. She's definitely feeling better, and ibuprofen has more or less erased her fever. It's been a bummer, but she's in good spirits, and we've been pretty lucky that this is her first ear infection in almost 5 years.

Tuesday, January 12, 2010Uma's First Dental AppointmentYesterday Uma visited the dentist for the first time. The dentist took a complete set of x-rays of her teeth and examined and cleaned her teeth. Uma was cooperative and relaxed throughout the whole appointment. I was proud of her. The dentist said Uma's teeth were in great shape. She also commented on Uma's small jaw and the crowding of Uma's front teeth and suggested orthodontia might be in Uma's future. I was not particularly surprised. Braces are practically a tradition in my family.

A sartorial observation
Last night, Uma noticed that her shirt and my shirt had their buttons on opposite sides. That's pretty observant.Labels: words
Pretty dresses
I'm guessing this was Uma's idea, and he went along. The things that happen when I'm at work...
Ice breakers
Well, I didn't let them break my trophy. I retrieved that from the creek behind our house. It was an inch thick.
Back to school
Uma's been telling Kieran every minute or two, "Guess what? Today is the day I go back to school!" In spite of the repetition, he's never guessed it. She's been asking for over a week how many days until she gets to go back. I'll take that to mean she likes her preschool, not that she dislikes us.Labels: words
