Happy 2013!

Well, it's a new year and Libby FINALLY lost her 1st tooth. So excited and a bit sad. Baby girl is growing up. It's been loose for so long that the new tooth has been growing in behind it (shark tooth).

The last week of school before the break started was a bust. We spent the Monday up in Aurora getting Olivia's passport renewed. Tuesday, I kept Olivia home because she had a cold and Wednesday, the last day, we had a blizzard. Schools were closed. I wound up taking the girls to the pediatrician that day. Turns out both girls had double ear infections. Thankfully, we discovered it a few days before we left on our trip, so they recovered pretty well (Amox 2x/day for 10 days, 10ml for O and 5ml for S).

We had a nice trip to Jamaica for Christmas and New Year's. Sabrina had a tough time with her ears on the landings of the planes (we had 3 flights) and true to form, O put up a fight with her medicine, though she toughened up in front of her cousins.

Behavior during the trip was pretty bad, but improved over previous years. I guess she gets too tired running all day and night with the big kids and starts acting out ?? Things have been better since we got home on the 1st. I hope these few days of recovery will leave her in good spirits when school starts back on Monday.

The girls swam in the pool, played in the yard on the zip line and had tons of fun with their cousins.
