Mommy's little helper

I'm getting Anna started early on chores...It just happened that we were in the basement and the laundry was finished, so instead of going upstairs to put her somewhere, I decided she fit just fine in the laundry basket and she agreed!

Today was our first sick visit to the doctor, and I'm so glad we went. She's had a cough for over a week now, and last night it started getting wheezy, plus she woke up a lot. She woke up when Grey's Anatomy came on (she's a GA junkie like her mom) and only calmed down when she saw Alex (her favorite). But after she fell asleep nursing, she woke back up screaming the minute I put her in the crib, which just isn't like her. So this morning she didn't eat well, and I thought we'd better get it checked out before the weekend- turns out she has her first ear infection! She also received a breathing treatment for her wheezing. So now she's on an antibiotic and albuterol for her wheezing. She doesn't act too sick- just a little more fussy around naptime. As you can see in her picture below, she looks just fine!

This is my favorite new outfit (courtesy of Old Navy's baby sale!) Even the socks have squirrels on them- you can't really tell in the picture, but the top is the short sleeve look with the long sleeves underneath...so cute. Did I mention before that Anna is sitting up? Well, she isn't 100% yet, but is getting better everyday! You still have to watch her closely or she'll do a quick dive-bomb for a cat or Madeira!
