Updates and tags

Sweet sweet sleep was mine for the taking last night. I was so well rested that I got up with Dave at 5:15 this morning. That is not something that I normally do. He has a very busy day planned today and I will probably not see him much until bed time, so I was motivated to spend a little bit of extra early morning time with him. I took my sweet little Noe in to the doctor last night and I am so glad that I did! He has an ear infection. It makes so much sense now as to why he would wake up screaming the past few nights. Poor baby! Ear infections can be so painful! Now that we are treating it he is getting the rest he needs as well. I could hardly believe how patient Noe was yesterday as we had to wait in the waiting room, wait for the doctor, wait for the prescription, etc. He was the epitome of cuteness in his fleecy Rudoloh jammies and had every one in the doctors office caught up in his flirting and chattering. He babbled constantly about shoes and brothers, owies and jammies, puppies and snow. Then he would crawl up onto his chair over and over declaring to his enraptured audience "I did it!!" He was exhausted by the time we got home, but so very well behaved! I relish those one on one times with my boys! Now on to some business that I am very late on. I have been tagged several times by several people and am embarrassed to say I don't even remember who all has tagged me. I keep tucking it back in my mind as a future post to do, but then get distracted by other ideas. :) I am very distractable. Ohhh - I should've waited and wrote that as one of the six random things I am supposed to write about myself. :) Okay, here are the 6 random, and very exciting things about me. 1. My favorite car right now is the Chrysler 300. Since you probably can't fit three car seats in the back, I am settling for a mini van. That is, for sure, the only thing standing in my way. *wink* 2. My brother married my sister's husband's sister. No, it really isn't as wrong as it sounds. Read it again. It's okay, I promise. In fact, it is really cool. 3. I married my dear friend Sarah's husband's brother. 4. My dear friend Rachel used to date Dave. It's always been good for a few laughs. :) 5. I often feel very intimidated to try new things, but when I do I feel so much satisfaction. 6. I am really bad at small talk. One of the most fulfilling things in my life is truly connecting with people on a deep level. Starting little conversations about external stuff is not my forte, but I am trying to do better at initiating conversation and being okay with small talk. :) I think almost every one I know who blogs has done this tag, so I will let it rest. :) Okay, I also got a photo tag a while ago. I think this one was from Jacy. :) The rules for this one are: go into your pictures, click on the fourth folder and then the fourth picture and post about it on your blog. This is what I found: This was K's first birthday! :) He was so tiny at only 17 pounds, sitting on that ice cream pail. :) It was so fun to go into old photo folders and see pictures which brought back memories.
