Halloween

As teachers, we have the luxury of having a long weekend at the end of every October. Thursday and Friday off were a nice break for us last week. Dan and I went out to breakfast on Thursday morning while Macy was at daycare, and on Friday we kept her home for a day of fun. My mom and I took her to her favorite place - the zoo for one last outing in the semi-warm weather. The fun stopped there because after her nap, I noticed a lot of goo coming from Macy's eye. I knew right away that it was pink eye, but of course the clinic was about to close. So Saturday morning meant a trip to the doctor to confirm. We caught it really early, but we have to do drops three times a day for seven days. You would think we were torturing the child because it takes both Dan and me to hold her down. Bribery doesn't work, so it's going to be a long seven days. Needless to say, Macy was not in a great mood for Trick or Treat. We put her ladybug costume on and made it to four houses before we were done. She had fun putting the candy from our bucket to hers for the rest of the night and watching the Halloween specials on Nick Jr. Overall, it was a fun, but stressful two days for this pregnant girl!

Good news, though...we were successful on the potty again last night!
