Snow

Holy cow!I just went to grocery store and there were snowflakes falling. This is crazy!


I'm hoping this week will be a uneventful week. This past week Garrett was having a rough week. He has been so good about sleeping though the night. But this past week was like the first weeks he came home. He was up every few hours screaming and crying. We tried everything. We would finally get him to sleep after about 30 to 40 minutes for a few hours and then the cycle would start again. He had no fever which is usually why he wakes up in the middle of the night. He did have an ear infection a while back and just finished his medicine for that earlier in the week. We thought it was either his ear infection didn't clear up or it was his teeth. We were putting orajel in his mouth before he went to bed and giving him Tylenol. Saturday morning after a whole night of no sleep. Mike took him to the doctors. Other then a cold doc said he looked and sounded good. He has a lot of teeth coming in and that is probably the problem. No ear infection. We were happy that was not the problem. Now we are alternating Tylenol and Motrin. We actually got sleep last night. Yay! Poor Garrett is getting a ton of teeth all at once. How painful.

Let see other news.

We are still moving along on our reapplication. We just got fingerprinted this week for the 10th zillion time for Adam Walsh and turned in our residential history. Mike should be getting a couple more forms to fill out since he lived in Iowa.
Our agency sent off our finger prints on Friday. It takes 4 -6 weeks to get all clearances. Once we get our last reference letter in and all the clearances are back we will see our social worker again. We hope to be waiting by the beginning of the year or sooner.
