Busy, busy days

I’m in the middle of so many projects at work… I just haven’t been able to keep up with details on Jordan’s exciting world enough. She was sent home from school on Thursday with a fever… I couldn’t really figure out what was wrong. When she woke up on Friday with the fever still around, I took her to the doctor. I just wanted to make sure it wasn’t an ear infection. And since Jordan is so calm, I wasn’t sure if she was sick or not. So she let two doctors check her ears without crying. No ear infection thank goodness. Just a virus. I took her to work for the day — And she was not feeling great, but I had to get some work done. I didn’t get nearly as much work as I needed. But at least I tried.

She didn’t sleep well last night. Jordan actually woke up twice in the middle of the night… A first in a really long time. But that’s okay. I got a good nap in this afternoon.

Other than the sick fevery stuff… Jordan is getting more and more social. We were on campus this week and Jordan was waving at every person we walked by. Oh — And signs that Mizzou students are the best around: Jordan dropped her blanket as we rushed to a class where I was speaking. During the class, I noticed the blanket was missing and figured it was gone forever. I retraced my steps after the class and found the blanket on a lamp stand — someone obviously picked it up and put it where I could see it. Thank you anonymous blanket saver!!!

Another sign of Jordan’s growth: She is letting Daddy and other friends and family members hold her… As long as I get out of her view pretty quickly. Her clingy-ness has been pretty tiring, but I really can’t complain. Watching my daughter love me with all her might is not something I want to complain about. I just went through the pile of pictures I took this week of my kids… I took way more of Cam than of Jordan. I know why. Jordan is so in need of my attention, I haven’t had enough space to breathe — let alone take pictures of her!!
