The Mystery Is Solved!!

Brooke has been extremely fussy and miserable lately and it's been pretty frustrating for me. I was starting to wonder why my content little girl went but this morning she showed up and stayed all day:-) I couldn't imagine what the heck had gotten into her to make her have the sudden change of heart, but finally I realized that her top two eye-teeth have poked through at last!! Hopefully the worst is over and she'll be happier now.

I was pretty sick today with my allergies. I have had horrible allergies my whole life, except for when I was on allergy shots (which I quit when I got pregnant with Brooke). I have been wanting to go back on them but we're trying for baby #2 so it just seems pointless. I have this expensive allergy medication regimen which involves three pills, eye drops, and an inhaler, yet I still find no relief. I woke up this morning with my eyes glued shut and when I finally got them opened they were bright red and so irritated that my vision was blurry. NOT fun:-( I continued to feel this way for the entire day and Brooke's change of attitude made it possible for me to go through this day. I'm not sure how I would have handled a grump on a day such as today!

During Brooke's nap all I wanted to do was die from feeling so allergic, but my housework was too demanding for me to be able to relax. I got so much done so I was happy that I fought through it! ALL of my laundry is done, my floors are mopped, and my bathrooms are clean. Ahh, the satisfaction! Lol! I even made a really good dinner... I put tilapia, zucchini, lemon, red onions, butter, garlic, salt, pepper and broccoli in foil and had John through them on the grill when he woke up. They were AMAZING! I served it over wild rice pilaf and it was perfect. Cooking in the summer is so easy!

Alright, I'm off to watch the Olympics, which are my latest weakness. I just can't seem to get enough of them!
