Last Part of the Update

Miciah is loving school. She likes to learn (though she does tell us that she's not learning a whole lot that she doesn't already know). She comes home and as quickly as possible shows us her stuff from the day. They often have things she wants to finish coloring or whatever. Sometimes she'll come home with stories to act out for us. She loves doing her homework and is very eager not only to do it and have FUN doing it (is that possible? She has fun doing homework?), but to do it right.

It did make me laugh yesterday. She came home and was trying to tell me about an event happening Monday night. She said it was a bagel thing. I was thinking about how I didn't know there was a school function that night that involved breakfast food. She then told me that they would throw things. I asked, "Throw bagels?" "Yeah!" she said. I was beyond confused. She then told me it was at 7. No, no, that wasn't right. The teacher said it was at 7:30. And we could watch it on TV. They would be playing a game. ... She was telling me about the BENGALS game. Bagels, Bengals, it's all the same. :)

Teancom still isn't walking or anything, and that's okay with me. He does say Da Da, and usually says a consistent bye-bye. That's about it. But, again, he's about the happiest kid I've ever met, so I'll take it. By this point in Elijah's life, we knew about his temper. I was wondering if Teancom would have the same temper, but it seems that he doesn't have a temper. He doesn't even get mad if he's hungry and you're not feeding him fast enough. And that's AMAZING to me. He's just really chill. It makes him a charmer because everyone falls in love with his soft temperament. Including me.

And the last thing, I've had some funky eye problem. There was a dry spot on my eyelid. Who knows what it is. I had it for over 2 weeks. As I was entering week 3 this weekend, it started swelling. First the swelling wasn't too noticable, then it got a lot worse. I finally broke down and decided I should treat it with something. I didn't know what to use, though cause just about everything topical says not to get in or near eyes. I tried melaluca oil, but it burned and made my eye feel like I put icy hot on it. So I decided to try this triple antibiotic cream that has melaluca in it. The swelling has now almost completely reduced and my eyelid is no longer red. Random of all randomness, but I'm glad it's going away. And no, I am NOT attaching a picture of it at its worst. :) That's the beauty of being the one behind the camera.

Hope everyone is doing well!
