Tough Girl and the Ballerina

Annie and I have started taking Mom and Babe ballet classes on Friday mornings. Today was our second class and Annie really seems to like it a lot. Generally there is a lot of prancing around in circles, or hopping...waving wands and silky scarfs around. I have to say that Annie is a natural! Future ballet star for sure. So that is the Ballerina portion of the post...now onto the Tough Girl! For the last 2 weeks or so Olivia has had some pretty bad poo problems and a really bad diaper rash. Since we had recently started her on solid foods I thought maybe that was the problem. So last week we stopped feeding her anything other than milk and rice cereal. Still the poo kept coming, but only in the mornings so I almost didn't believe her daycare teachers when they told me she had been going through diapers left and right. So yesterday I took her by the doctor and we found out that she has a horrible ear infection! I was very surprised because 'Libler hadn't once made a peep about having ear problems, in fact I can't remember the last time she cried. So she is on cherry flavored medicine now, and a probiotic, and special diaper cream, and something else...I can't remember. Anyways, we figure that she has a high tolerance for pain, and I guess that comes from having Annie the Amazon as a big sister!
