sick again...still

Here is how we spent our weekend. If there is an upside to having a sick child, they certainly are cuddly.



Meredith is battling an ear infection that she has had for over a month now. We're on our third antibiotic (amoxicillin, augmentin, and now cephrozil). As if going to the doctor three times in a month is bad enough, she managed to come down with something while she is on antibiotics.

This weekend also marked the return of my two goldfinch friends. I was delighted to see them back. They showed up last spring during nesting season because apparently the fuzzy stuff on the back of Greg's grill cover made excellent nest-building material and we've had a feeder out ever since.

Last but not least, I made another trip to Goodwill since it is 50% off kids stuff on Thursdays and I got all this for $13.

1 like new tonka truck

2 children's place fall shirts

1 brand new osh kosh genuine kids skirt

1 pair of children's place capris

1 pair of arizona sweatpants

1 almost new pair of stride rites

And here's a close-up of those hardly been used Stride Rites I got at a dirt cheap price of $3.99.
