Bye Bye Pacifier?

With Mason's recent desire to not sleep, he has given up his pacifier. I am crossing my fingers I have not jinxed this and it's the silver lining in the epic battle I assumed we would have down the road.

His rash (ring worm) never really went away and is back in full force. Tomorrow he has an appointment with the pediatrician. It's actually good timing as I hope Ryan asks about these "night fits" and he started touching his ears today. I am hoping that he didn't develop a case of swimmers ear (ear infections suck!).

On a happier note, we signed Miller up for after care at his new school this weekend and then attended a fundraiser at the boys' current school. There was a bounce house, petting zoo, pony rides, and tour of the classrooms. We met Mason's new teachers and checked out his bigger classroom. It will have a bathroom and more big boy toys along with more room to roam.

Mason was in LOVE with the animals at the petting zoo. He enjoyed petting the bunnies, ducks, chickens (he even held one), goats, and sheep. He even had his first pony ride. My pictures are on my phone so I will try to grab those another time. Miller has never loved animals in the same way. He was content to look and pet a few. Both kids rode the pony like champs. It's so cute to see them respect the horse and ask questions about it.

The bounce house was great because it was one set up like an obstacle course and they had it to themselves both times they went in. The prize to always being at an event when it starts is there usually isn't a crowd.

Lastly, Ryan decided to let Miller watch some Ninja Warrior competition show. Now I can't keep Miller off of the walls / furniture. He's always looking for his next challenge. Wipeout got him excited too. If he weren't such a chicken, I might have just found my way to make a buck (entering him into competitions). :)
