Time to catch up

Alot to catch up on...
Mia had her appointment with the ENT office last week...and well we all knew it, but she NEEDS tubes. After all the medications she had the past month and half her ears are still infected. The left one bright red and full of fluid the right ear, partial fluid and pink. So its a go...we need them. We have an appointment with the eye doctor on Friday to see if we can if we can get her blocked tear duct in her eye fixed at the same time. I am really hoping they can fit us in next week for surgery!
Other great news...Miss Mia started crawling last Wednesday night (June 3) right before Chris and I had planned to leave for Chicago. She was only crawling a few steps at a time..but she was so happy to do it. I love it, but I don't want her to grow up! Now she will crawl all over the room..just trying to be near everyone. We are really trying hard to watch what Vincent eats and plays with in the rooms now..no crumbs or small toys can be left around.
For the first time ever.....Mia slept from 9pm to 7am...all by herself...of course I slept like crap that night..but that's a sign she can do it!

Vincent has been busy busy busy! He is always on the go and loves it outside in the backyard swinging, swimming, climbing, playing with daddy's stuff in the garage. Tires me out. He has also been talking alot more, making full sentences. The only problem is he is starting to remember everything I say....for instance. He had some gum while we were at my parents house and now he wants it all the time. So I tell him:
Mommy: "Mommy doesn't have any more gum"
Vincent: "Gum please Mommy"
Mommy: "Mommy doesn't have anymore, we will have to go the store and get some"
Vincent: "Okay Mommy lets go to the store then"
Every day...I just tell him we don't have any...and he responds lets go to store mommy and get gum and occasionally he adds more onto the list...yesterday it was gum, chocolate and Gami's juice (sprite and crystal light) I love it!

As for Chris and I we recently went to Chicago for a little couple time. We had a great time...and spent too much money! Oh well....life goes on! We visited the Sears Tower...the Bean-globe, walked along Lake Michigan for a LONG time, had some nice dinners and of course the bars with a few friends.
