assorted notes
May. 16th, 2007 10:12 amDillo's sixth tooth - the last of the top incisors - came through Monday night. We went to La Leche League after all, as mr. flea wanted to do last-minute conference prep - and Dillo was the jolly crawly man, full of energy way past his bedtime. I hope he did not infect too many other children; I tried to keep him contained.
mr. flea left Tuesday at about 5 (following a cab kerfuffle - stupid cabbies) and we had a leisurely morning since I was going to be home with Dillo. Then walk to school, field trip (Casper melted down towards the end, I'm pretty sure just because I was there), bus home with Dillo, some napping (45 minutes for me), some domestic stuff, bus back to get Casper. Walked home with the stroller and we played in the park for a while. Casper did a good job this time getting into a group and the little girls were playing kittens. She is so tall!
Managed the evening with no fights and only minor bedtime complaining, though I couldn't get Casper to go to sleep until 10. I was up coughing a LOT between 2 and 6am, sadly. I honestly think I've got a NEW cold now. Except when I am slightly paranoid I have leukemia, since I have had a couple of inexplicable nosebleeds. Dillo did some waking and self-settling in the night, which was good. He and I were up at 6, he very snotty and goopy-eyed, but not feverish and in decent spirits. Got Casper up at about 6:45 and out the door at 7:15, walking. She went off okay but Dillo cried and produced snot all over the place. I left feeling very guilty - so glad I don't usually do the drop-off. I got in right at 8, which was my goal, so phew.
