Busy Week~

I missed my goal of updating once a week. It has been a crazy time! On the 23rd, Lindsay called me at work and said Bryell was very unhappy. She was the same on the 24th and 25th when I was home with her. She woke up EVERY 45 MINUTES on the 25th. I just assumed teething. Well, on Friday, the 26th, we played Mountain View at Mountain View. I went to pick Bryell up after school and head over to the games. When I got to Lindsay's, she told me that Bryell had a rough day again and that she was pretty sure something was wrong with her. I said I was probably going to take her in to the doctor the next day if we had a night like we had that Thursday. As we are driving to the games, something kept nagging at me to take her in right then. I took her to public health and asked what they thought- if I should take her to the doctor or not. They said yes. I ran over to the clinic here at 4:30. They were super nice and fit us in. The doctor told me Bryell had quite the ear infection in both ears and gave her medicine. Instead of going to the games, we went home and cuddled. I felt awful, I'm pretty sure she had that ear infection for a few days before I took her in. Next time, I will act a little bit quicker. Bryell is such a happy baby, I should have known better.
On Sunday, the 28th, I went to Casper for the school improvement conference. Those trips are always fun to get to know the teachers in other buildings, the teachers in my building a bit better, and the administrators. I got back Tuesday evening. Wednesday I spent trying to catch up with my college class work. Thursday was regionals. My parents came up for the weekend. It was so nice to have them here. I am pretty homesick and having them here helps with that a little bit. My mom stayed home from the game Thursday and watched Bryell- the game was at 7 and the boys followed so it was a bit late for her. I think Bryell enjoyed Grandma time. They read lots of books together and it was pretty cute, after my mom left Bryell was still going to the books they read together, almost like she remembered. My parents, Bryell, and I spent most of Friday at the house. It started to snow outside so it was nice to just relax at home. They left Saturday afternoon.
The girls did not make it to state- they played really well, just couldn't finish it. I know the coaches were proud though, they played their hearts out. It was close to the best I have seen them play this year. But not making it to state means that basketball season is over and Jeffrey will be home lots more, so it is bittersweet.
