1.  Turning Circles
Another week, another illness for Mr. Brady.  This week the little guy was diagnosed with strep throat and due to high fevers and his behavior, they placed a catheter to gather a urine sample.  The cultured results from that sample were….(we’re still waiting!)
This is the third round of antibiotics for Brady yet somehow he continues to become ill.  His procedure was on October 5th with his first round of antibiotics beginning on October 3rd.  Today is November 6th, so it has been exactly 35 days since that first dose.  When I calculated this all out, Brady has been on antibiotics for 24 days out of those 35.

What is happening?!  Well, our pediatrician and a clinical team at Iowa City are wondering the same thing.  Not too comforting for this momma.  I am ready for some clear cut answers.

2.  A Fave

When I have products or items that I really like, I want to pass on the memo to others.  This lotion is everything.  I went to an Aveda salon in Omaha and they would always give me a hand massage before my cut/color (smart marketing, huh?).  I fell in love with the lotion then and have used it here and there ever since.  I just got a new bottle in October, hence the pink embellishments.  It’s the perfect fresh scent!
3.  War-drobe
I don’t know about you ladies out there, but my wardrobe needs a revamping!  I feel like seasons come and go so quickly and even though I want to make some purchases, I lack at doing so and then I find myself back to that season with the same old, same old!  I want to get some new, reasonable, items in my closet.  I follow some fashion bloggers for inspiration and clothing ideas.  Lately I have “liked” a few to see where they purchased their duds.  I stumbled across this cardigan sweater/coat that I knew was the IT piece!  I am in love, I have made up my mind it’s going to be my newest investment, and then…I realize its $895.  Say what?  I don’t think so.  So much for “everyday” items from that gal, ha!  Looks like I will attempt to find a duplicate of that cardigan!  Is anyone else playing war with their wardrobe these days?  Suggestions welcome!
Side Note:  I have been wearing a different bracelet since my “Tessa” one broke and yesterday I broke the replacement one taking off my gloves at the clinic!  Now I’m really bracelet naked. L
4.  Glasses
I have had a few people comment lately that they had no idea that I wore glasses!  Yep, I’ve had them since the 7th grade actually.  I realized this month, actually quite often thanks to Tess who wants me to show her some gymnastics moves ;), that I’m getting old.  And what that means is, so are my eyes!  I find myself wearing my specks every day for nearly all activities besides driving.  Eek!  #gettingoldisn’tfun
5.  In-Laws
The in-laws flew in from California last night for a long weekend.  I love having family visit!  We’re sure to have an awesome weekend together even though there isn’t anything particular that we are going to do.  Sometimes those are the best weekends though, right?  With their early morning flight, time change differences, and daylight savings….this was my sight before I took off for the clinic this morning.  Pretty precious!

Have a great first weekend of November folks!
