Grumpy

On the way to grandma's house this morning Baby Bug was acting ornery. I told her "your grumpy today." Her response? "No I'm not, I'm Snow White!" :-)

Feeling Better

Baby Bug is feeling much better today. Just a little bit of a runny nose now. It is so nice to see her all perked up. She is really excited that tonight she gets to go to a real wedding. I was afraid she would be too sick to go, but we will be able to attend. :-)

My speak not talking very well.

I woke up yesterday morning to a horse Little voice saying "my speak not talking very well." It was true poor Baby Bugs speak is not talking well, and on top of her sore throat she has a nasty head cold. Her nose is running like a facet. :-( Poor Baby! She had a hard time yesterday. I sat with her and we played lots of quiet time games, read books, played with her leap pad, and drew on her auquadoodle. She needed me in touching distance at all times. I couldn't get her to eat any food, but did get water, Gatorade, pop, and Popsicles down her, her throat was just too sore for solid foods. :-( I had to be back at work today, my mom watches Baby Bug, so I know she is well cared for, but I HATE leaving her. Mom did get her to eat some canned spaghetti. :-) Actually mom said Baby Bug saw the can and got the can opener and a chair to climb on to try to open it herself. LOL After breakfast she settled into her favorite child size Disney Princess couch (Thank You Aunt H. it is her comfort place) and fell asleep. I am so glad she is finally sleeping, she only slept about an hour and a half last night. I am so glad my mom is able to watch her for me, I could never leave my sick Baby otherwise. I think my parents wondered if we were moving in this morning. LOL I brought her couch, a lap table, a couple of reusable sticker sets, pop, Gatorade (two flavors), two sippy cups (she only uses sippy cups when she doesn't feel well) and her stuffed Grover. This is on top of the normal Botty (her lovie doll) Nini (the bottle she is too old for that I let her have anyways) and Wags (the dog.) It took two trips to bring it all in. I wish I could be home with her, but I need to save my sick days for when she is truly sick, not just gunked up. Strep is going around right now I am so glad she didn't get that!! :-)

Waterless again

Well last night I cam home to no water. :-( My water meter had frozen for the THIRD time in ten days. This time it not only froze during the day, but I had left my water running a small stream all day long, and it still froze! Dad called the water department for me and they came out and thawed it out again. They removed my water meter and I will only be charged for the minimum usage until the spring thaw (yeah) but will have to leave my water running around the clock to keep it from freezing up again. (boo) It has been a cold winter, with very little snow on the ground. This has caused the frost to go deeper into the ground than normal. The water department told Dad that this is the worst year they have had for frozen meters since 1987.

Introduction

This blog is for others to follow along on the adventures of my two little lady bugs.

Baby Bug my oldest is three almost four years old. Baby Bug has been home from China for over two years.

Mei Mei is almost one and is waiting for us in China. I cant wait to bring her home.


I am waiting on my 171. That is a form from the USCIS (formerly the INS) allowing me to bring Mei Mei into the USA. Once I have that I will wait for my TA. That is the form from China allowing me to travel to bring Mei Mei home. :-)
