10 Years, 2 Years, & 1 Sad Baby

10 Years!
On Friday, we headed out to Nevada for my 10 year class reunion! Yep, that's right, I graduated from high school 10 years ago! A LOT has happened in those 10 years. Maybe one day I'll reminisce about those 10 years but for now it is sufficient to say that it was great to see some of my high school friends. Some I hadn't seen since graduation, some I see every Christmas (holiday season), but it was still great to see them and catch up. Being from a graduation class of around 50 people, you know everyone and are interested in what everyone is doing these days. It was fun to hear about those who weren't able to make it. (Yes, that's one of my senior pictures up there.)


2 Years!
The best 2 years of my life! ;0) On Monday, Richard & I celebrated our two year anniversary. In lots of ways, it totally seems like longer than two years... but, of course, in a good way. We were traveling back from my hometown for most of the day, but we did get back in time to go out to dinner and do a little shopping. Since the gifts for the 2nd anniversary are cotton or china, I got new sheets for our bed and Richard got 1 GB of "name brand" memory for our computer (made in China). I know, how romantic?! At least we can check those things off of our list of things to buy!


1 Sad Baby
Nelson's 1st tooth popped out about a week-and-a-half ago, and it's been a bunch of "ouch" moments ever since. Yes, I have been in pain, but he has been in even more. On our trip, he had a horrible time sleeping and eating. Poor baby! He was just miserable for most of the trip and was not happy self at all. I knew it was probably more than just teething that was making him so sad, so I took him to the doctor's yesterday. He has an ear infection in his right ear. Now he is on an antibiotic and benadryl for his cough and stuffy nose. He slept through the night last night for the first time in five days. He was much happier this morning, and I cannot wait for him to get back to him smiling and laughing all day.
