Testing Grandma Buechler's Skills

Grandma Buechler came to stay with Jolie on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday-woo hoo! And I'm starting to notice a trend of Jolie testing out her Grandma's nursing skills whenever she visits. This time it was the Mystery of the Random Fevers. Grandma was a life saver and slept with Jolie in the chair one night which was very much appreciated! She also has a blocked tear duct that Grandma showed us how to treat.

So after much debate, we are waiting it out and seeing how it goes since she doesn't have any other consistent symptoms. We're just going with that default answer of 'teething.' Although I am hard at work on a machine that you plug your baby into and it will diagnose them--like they do with new vehicles! It will make us a fortune, so if you'd like to be an investor, we are taking donations now. :) It's even moved ahead of my teleportation project that I've been working on to make traveling to see our families instantaneous instead of these long drives.

Even though these fevers keep coming and going, Jolie's been in a pretty good mood. Thank goodness because I would feel bad if Grandma drove all this way and she was a crabby paddy the whole time! Grandma, Jolie and Petey got to go on some walks and Grandma and Josh got to check out the Valley Junction Farmer's Market.

The weekend was low key and included playing outside with the neighbors and snuggling with mom and dad (the best thing ever!) Josh worked on Sunday, so I got to be a baby hog and have Jolie all to myself! I was hoping for a quick trip to the mall, but that darn wandering fever came back so I decided we better stay put.

Thank you again to Grandma Buechler for staying with Jolie and rocking her all night. Here's a text they sent while mom and dad were at work. It's an 'action shot' of her in the swing so it's a little blurry. :)

And I promise, I'm not always a psycho mom! Well I don't think so anyway. :)


See--look at that smile! She must feel okay, right???
