Ups and Downs

The ups of the day: we had fun watching baby Ava Mantegna for a few hours. We saw a glimpse of what it will be like with two girls:

• Hannah was an AMAZING help! She wanted to do so much.
• She helped Ava with her pacifier and playing toys to help her not cry.
• She played her music on the activity mat and laid next to her.
• She tried to help feed her and change her diaper.
• She helped Mommy and Daddy every time we asked.
• When Hannah woke up from her nap she asked where baby Ava was. So cute!

  The down(er) of the weekend was Renee's giant waste of 2 hours when she took Hannah to the doctor late Friday afternoon. Hannah's eyelid was very pink and swollen since she woke up on Friday morning. After a couple of doses of Benadryl and a good nap it seemed worse. After waiting for almost 2 hours - the end results was A MOSQUITO BITE! Apparently she must've gotten bit on the eyelid during the night and it swelled overnight. Today it got a little better but you might be able to see it in the picture below. My only thought is there is no way to protect this girl as even if you put bug spray on her you can't spray her eyes! So you can't win for trying. But like my Mom says, Better Safe then Sorry! At least it wasn't anything worse, right!
