Yesterday afternoon we went to the eye doctor for Joe. He does not have an inverted eyelid...just some lashes that have turned in and gotten trapped. Dr's instructions are ointment in the eye 3 times a day (translated as torture for both parent and child) until the lashes release. If they don't, we have to go back to the Dr. next week and he should be able to get them out.
After the Dr. we headed to Thousand Oaks for some pool time with Carlene and Brooke. Joe was a little fish. He was swimming all by himself with his life jacket and a noodle under his arms. He was very independent about the whole thing. This was unusual for me to see, but I was extremely happy and proud about it.
When we got home, Dan surprised me with a picture from our 80s PROM party and a card for my birthday. He is taking me out for dinner and then to a hotel for the night on Saturday. Jill and Brian are going to stay with the kids. Yeah!!! What a fabulous Birthday present.
Today was Dan's last day of work as the Public Works Director of Parkville. He will be starting with the Platte County Sewer District on Monday. I am so proud of my hubby. His abilities never cease to amaze me! I know it is a bittersweet time for him, but the change is going to be a good one. He deserves to be moving up in the world.
The kids and I did Gymboree this morning for Lynn's play class. Of course she didn't play at all. Joe was a goof ball the whole time, but he wasn't naughty, so that was a relief. We then went to Toy and Book for the first time. It is a resale place for...you guessed it....toys and books. Great store with tons of stuff. We will surely be going back. The owner offered to sell my snack bags if I wanted to do it. I am thinking about it.
