Surviving!

I can't believe how long it's been since I posted! It's been crazy busy and I just feel grateful that we've survived a few things over the past few weeks/months.

First and foremost, we have officially survived molluscum contagiosum. It's a horribly contagious virus that affects just the top layer of the skin. The only thing we can assume is that she got it from one of her little cousins who got it from another cousin or friend. Aitana has terribly sensitive skin and she seems to catch everything that affects the skin. It was annoying and took just less than a year, but it is gone. All gone.

The next thing we survived was Aitana's first ear infection. She got it 2 weeks ago after having played in a little pool at a family pool party. Poor thing would point to her ear and say "It hurts" and cry. I would say that 1 ear infection in almost 2 years is not bad. But still, we survived it ... she is not a good sick person.

And finally, we think that brothers GER is finally turning a corner. While at times he still spits-up, and it can be a lot at once, it is gradually happening less and less. It may happen once every every other day at this point. Where as before it was all day, every day. I'm just greatful because he seems to be a much happier baby and much less fussy.

When you are in the midst of all the madness, sometimes you never expect to see an end to it. But the end is here and we are ready for some healthy living!
