getting better

So the bad news first...Diya has a double ear infection AGAIN! We have decided tubes is the way to go now. We were resisting it, but its for the best. Her last ear infection was less than month ago and winter hasn't even started yet. Seems like she gets them very easily. Luckily, the antibiotics are still having an affect. But the docs say it can cause hearing damage. That was enough for us to finalize getting tubes for her. We have an appointment for Nov5th at Children's Hospital for a preliminary exam and I'm guessing they'll put them in soon after. Panic mode has not set yet, but I'm sure it will once Nov 5th comes around. I know its a common procedure and many children (even younger than Diya) get it done it still scares me. It's mostly the thought of Diya put under general anesthesia that I'm afraid of. It sucks that the only reason they have to do that is to keep her still. Knowing Diya that really is the only way to keep her still.

Ok, lets turn to some slightly good news. Looks like she is mostly recovered. She has no fever and even had a good night of sleep yesterday. She 's pretty good like that...rough and tough.

Here are some random pics taken couple weeks ago.

Long, long weekend

I know…I’m slacking about posts…but there is a lot going on right now. This past weekend was a busy one. Premal and I both took Friday off hoping to enjoy a relaxing day. We enjoyed, but it wasn’t really relaxing. We ended up doing a lot of errands.

Saturday was the last garba night at our samaj. I have a feeling Diya is going to grow up loving garba(like her mom). All night she was running around and getting in everyone’s way while they were trying to do garba. Of course when I tried to get her she wouldn’t have it at all. She didn’t want to be held at all. I had taught her this bit…if you ask her how does Diya do garba…she claps her hands in the air…her nani(my mom) loved that one. She was also enjoying running around behind the other kids and of course stealing their toys even though she had her own.

Sunday we went apple picking. It was Diya’s first time. She had a ball with everything…picking apples, the hayride, the petting zoo…etc. We will definitely be doing more of that in the future.




Unfortunately, Sunday night was when the fun ended. We got home and Diya felt little warm and it turned out she had a temperature. We hoped by morning it will be fine. But again she had a slight fever and as the day went on the temp climbed and reached 102. Doctor told us to give her baby Tylenol and just monitor her for the day. This morning no fever, but daycare called saying she has a temp of 100.5. So we got an appointment with the doctor. Dunno what’s wrong. Usually she has a cough or cold and its due to that, but she has no signs of anything. Only thing it could be more new teeth. Yup, 2 more molars coming in. That makes a total of 8 teeth on top and 3, plus one budding on the bottom.


Anyway, we hope its nothing serious and we get over this fast.
