Videos of Jentry

For Mother's day we had the pleasure of having our Mom's over for dinner. It was so good to spend time with our Mommas! However, I don't know that we got the camera out one time :( I think thats what happens when 4 little ones converge on our house! However, I'm so excited because Jentry bought me a new flip video camera so you should see some posts with videos of her in them to come. Here are a few now :)

Riding in Daddy's Truck

Madness Pure Madness...

Today Jentry and I, along with my school friend Susan ventured to Fort Wayne to go to the annual Vera Bradley sale. It was a VERY LONG day of standing in lines...5 hours or so...and a short day of shopping...only about 1 hour...I was not impressed with the sale this year. To be totally honest I was very bummed that I wasn't able to get a large duffel bag for Jentry. However I must say my princess was PERFECT today. She happily sat in her stroller for many hours and was an angel! We came home with only 4 bags and one of them is for her! She loves to carry it around and it's very cute! Here she is in her high chair waiting for dinner with her milk and her new Vera bag! Gotta love it! We left our house at 6:45 this morning and didn't arrive back home until 7:30 this evening...so she looks a little rough and that's why :) **I hope you enjoyed the 5 updates today! That was the latter part of April for us. My plan is to do a better job in May...but don't hold your breath!**

What does it take...

for you to get comfortable at night? For Jentry to was her feet propped up on her bumper, her bear knocked over, her pacifier nice and close, and her head half covered with her blankie. Jack captured these two pictures the other night after I went in to see her and told him he had to check her out too. Jentry was still sick and it apparently took quite a bit for her to get comfy. Poor baby :(

When your sick...

It is very important to stay hydrated! Jentry has discovered our Tupperware cabinet and found the water bottle I used when I was pregnant with her. The other day when she was at home sick, I gave in and let her drink from the mini water jug. She made a big mess, but was so happy drinking away...and she was getting lots of water, which was the most important part of this whole ordeal!

Walk with me Daddy

These two pictures melt my heart. Part of it is the fact that our little Jentry was so sick by the time her and I arrived back home on Sunday, and part of it is I just LOVE seeing my baby girl interact with her Daddy! She got a bath to try and break her fever and was put in clean jammies and then wanted to work on her walking with her Daddy. She loves her Daddy and the feeling is mutual from him! She found her blankie and Daddy's hand and off they went for a stroll around the house. I just think they are so adorable together. They sure do hold the keys to this Mommy's heart!

Watching Mommy Mow

Those legs you see out the window pushing the lawn mower are mine! Jentry was standing at the window yelling at me the other night while I was mowing. Jack was able to snap this picture of her watching me!

Jentry Update

I don't have any pictures but I do have an update on our little princess. Jentry has been sick since last week. It started with some nasty ear gunk that I decided was an ear infection and started her antibiotic drops...this quickly morphed into an eye infection and on Friday she was put on a oral antibiotic along with an eye drop...thank you Mimi and Pop for taking good care of her this past weekend.

When we arrived home on Sunday Jentry's second ear infection appeared in her other ear. ARGH...and she had a slight fever. Of course mom of the year gave her some Motrin and sent her to daycare on Monday...and of course I got a call about noon letting me know that Jentry had a fever and needed to be picked up...so I finished out my day, let the school know that I would be taking Tuesday off and headed to get the princess...by Monday night Jentry had a fever of 103 degrees. I quickly called Dr. Miller and she wanted to see us. So in we went...and Dr. Miller agreed that there was definitely infection in both ears and she put Jentry on a stronger antibiotic and also asked me to call our ENT to get Jentry in there, since Jentry already has tubes in her ears...so I called the ENT and found out they couldn't get Jentry in until May 19.

Tuesday arrived and Jentry was still with a fever of 102 degrees...it would go down with Motrin, but as soon as the drug wore off, the fever returned. Needless to say Dr. Miller sent me a text message to see how Jentry was doing and when we were going to see the ENT. I replied to let her know that Jentry still had a fever and we couldn't get in to the ENT until May 19...she asked for his number and called him personally! Wowzers, did this cause some quick action! Needless to say Jentry saw our ENT today at noon.

Nana came to our house and watched Jentry today so that I could go back to work. I really appreciated that and she was able to meet Jack for Jentry's ENT appointment today at noon. Needless to say, Dr. I our ENT agreed that there were issues with her ears, he sucked out the pus and set her up for another surgery. So our princess is set to have a bigger set of tubes put in her ears and her adenoids removed on May 19...our original date to see Dr. I. It amazes me that it takes a phone call from another Dr. to get the ball rolling with a sick kid.

Jentry had her tubes put in early in December and has been nothing but sick since. It has been very frustrating for Jack and I and we are hoping this is the answer to our prayers. We just want a healthy baby girl...she is an incredibly happy girl...now we just want her to be healthy...so we are asking that you join us in praying that this is the answer to her health problems.
