First 6 stands for the number of pounds I lost my first week back on Weight Watchers! WOO HOO! Thats a very good number for me!!
Second 6 stands for the number of ear infections Ava has currently gone to the doctor for since September. We talked and the doctor thinks she's had more but we didn't realize it. Its REALLY hard for us to tell when Ava has an ear infection because she is in such a good mood all the time. However the doctor is worried about the infections affecting her speech development and hearing. So we go see an ear nose and throat doctor next Friday to talk about tubes. I'll be happy when they are over and Ava stops having to suffer through these ear infections and rounds and rounds of antibiotics.

Tubes in Ava's Ears
I took Ava to the doctor this morning because she has a goopy eye and I figured she needed eye drops... turns out she has her 5th ear infection since October.
The doctor talked to us about getting tubes put in Ava's ears. I am sick over the idea of having Ava put under for this procedure. I called Dan after crying my eyes out. Here's my little girl happy as can be and not even upset with a 5th ear infection in 5 months and they want to put her under for tubes. BLAH.
We have a decision to make and I know I want her to be happy AND healthy. Not just happy. I called my mother in law to tell her and she even said, "you would never know Ava is sick" and you wouldn't! She is the happiest baby and still sleeps 12+ hours with an ear infection. Mother in law says Ava must have a high pain tolerance and will be good at giving birth hahaha. She's right though. Ava can fall and hit her head, or bump her arm or trip on her own feet and she never gets upset, even when I think she should.
I'm lucky to have such a happy baby, but not so happy about the ear infections. I love my little Ava.

Ear Infections
It seems like since we have moved we are often dealing with Ava getting sick with one thing or another. She had never gotten sick in her first 4 1/2 months and it seems like the last 4 1/2 months have been trips to the doctor every few weeks for something.
She's got a double ear infection this week... This is her 3rd or 4th go around with ear infections in the last 4 months. It makes me so sad. She is in so much pain and wakes so often when she has ear infections. She cries so hard and I hate to know she is in pain.
Thankfully this time we caught onto her signs within 2 days of them starting. The first time it took me over a week to figure out she had an ear infection :(

Sick Day
Everyone is sick here today! Ava hasn't been feeling well for a few days and then all of a sudden both Dan and I got really sick in the middle of the night. I hope Ava doesn't get a fever and that she doesn't have an ear infection but she has been acting like she has one and won't eat very much. Guess we will see tomorrow if we like her new Dr.
