One word....

busy.

swamped.

exhausted.

crazy.

That is me and my calendar for the next three weeks. 

My full calendar started this past weekend with an awesome visit with my aunt, who was in town to run the Bolder Boulder.  My dad and aunt came our direction to visit for a bit, the next morning we headed their direction for some race festivities, and then the following day Claire had tubes put in her ears. 

We didn't get to see much of the Bolder Boulder, but did get to see the elite runners and some of the memorial day program.  Sky divers brought in flags for each of the military branches, and the Stars and Stripes.

 

Claire's tube surgery the next morning was as quick a process as everyone said it was!  Her surgery was at 9:00 and we were on our way home by 10:30.  She slept a lot of the day, and was a bit crabbier than normal, but really she did great with the whole thing. 

Claire's nurse (in the background of the first picture) was awesome.  He and is wife are both nurses, and they do foster care for medically fragile children.  Claire's other nurse had an adult daughter with Ds.  It was great to visit with both of them.

Claire went to daycare today, but I ended up picking her up early.  She was out of sorts and over tired, and came home and slept for almost three hours.  That is an insanely long nap for her!

The next few weeks are packed with dr appointments, therapy and work so there may not be too many exciting updates....except for Claire's first Happy Heart Day, which is next week.

Sorry for the crappy pictures.  The only camera I had with me this weekend was my cell phone.

Thank you for all of the birthday wishes, and for making it through what turned out to be kind of a random update!
