infections

It's been a tough week at the hometead. Over the Memorial Day weekend, both Jen and Meredith were slowed down by infections and fevers. So, it was good we didn't have anything planned because we didn't get very far away from the house. Several days later, the virus turned into a nasty double ear infection for Meredith. Elaine still gets to take medicine for her ear infection, gas, and acid reflux. Much of each evening involves walking Elaine around the block in her stroller so that she can calm down.

Earlier this week Meredith was talking about families and her own future plans. She outlined her detailed plan to me. She thought she would be a mother and have 6 babies. She would work as a firefighter and our current house will be the firehouse. I would be the grandpa and live with her and Jen would be a mommy with her. Also, a babysitter will live in the house to help with all the kids. The girl is a planner.
