It’s the illness time of year
And as sick as the kids have been this week (especially Noah), I couldn’t ask for a better turnout. Neither of them ended up on antibiotics this time around. Seeing that Kellan had 10 ear infections in the first 21 months of his life, I got used to going to the pediatrician for […]
OurFirstMarriage #44: It’s All About Preparation
Our New Years discussion continues. Tom and Tanel have different views of checking up on kids when they are with a babysitter. Captain Evil’s tube surgery is discussed in detail. Shut up is a bad word. Four year olds are all about absolutes (not the vodka). Punkalicious’ first slumber party (he went to stay the […]
Update on the tubes

OurFirstMarriage #42: Printing Pictures Woes
Tom and Tanel are looking forward… to tubes. They don’t trust people that don’t drink. The duo traded presents for the first time this year (not in time for this taping). Tom lies… for a good reason. Guys shouldn’t ask gals to marry them in restaurants. People that give Christmas cards too early are evil. […]
Ear tubes
We’re finally giving in to the tubes. If I’d known that Kellan was going to have five ear infections in the 6 months following his first ENT appointment back in May 2007, I would have done it then. I’m not concerned much about the surgery itself - it’s outpatient and it’s a […]
Visit to the ENT
And miraculously, the fluid that’s been in Kellan’s ears since January is gone. Now that is exciting! Pretty much everyone (friends/family/pediatrician) EXCEPT for the ENT has recommended/suggested that we’d be better off with tubes. We haven’t necessarily averted tubes forever - just for now. Who would think that a baby who […]
