Those lashes!

Georgia has these amazing eyelashes that look as if she has used one of those tortuous eyelash curlers. They're gorgeous.

Just a quick update before I run out the door. I went to the eye doctor yesterday, and my prescription hasn't changed and nothing is wrong with my eyes that would cause migraines. So I check that off my list. This morning I go to the dentist to fix a crown that is a little off and could be contributing to my tension headaches. I'll get to the bottom of this eventually.

Yesterday Elizabeth came over to watch Nate while I went to the eye doctor and ran a couple errands. Blake got home before I did to relieve Elizabeth, and she told him that she had been giving Nate a piggy back ride and he fell (from a short distance) and hit his head hard on the train table. He was hysterical for several minutes, then she got him to lay on the couch and watch cartoons, and he fell asleep. Okay, he NEVER falls asleep on the couch. I'm pretty sure that has never happened before ever. He woke up when Blake got home and was in a bad mood. Of course I'm worried about a possible concussion, so I called Elizabeth and got more details, and we quizzed Nate on all the names of his trains and checked his eyes, and he appeared to be okay. This morning he has a good knot on the back of his head, and I'm still watching him closely. At some points I've thought he was acting wierd, but I'm pretty sure he always acts a little odd just cause he's 3. :)

Also, his teacher said he had a coughing fit at lunch yesterday and almost threw up his food. I haven't seen a coughing fit yet, but this is the second report of one this week, so I'm a little nervous. Please keep Nate in your prayers that he won't get sicker. We're still giving him his pulmicort treatments at night, and this morning I gave him an albuterol treatment to see if it would prevent any more coughing fits at school. In the meantime, I have a really icky, painful cough myself.

Off to the dentist.
