Jealousy, UTIs, & Cheez-Its

Random title, I know, but I had three different stories to tell! One, we went to a Bridal Shower this weekend. There was the cutest 2 month old baby there! Burke was sitting on the loveseat in between me and one of my cousins just minding her business. My cousin passes me the baby and I say, 'Awww, sweet baby.' Burke YELLS, gets up and starts to pry my arm off the baby! I'm pretty sure she threw a 'No!' in there too! At her party she acted a tinge jealous of me holding Landon but not really a big deal. Well, she was obviously NOT liking me holding this baby! Does that rule out another kid in my future??!!

Two, Burke has another UTI!!!! UGH!! She started running a fever late Thursday night, and Friday she was feeling pretty lousy with high fever and stinky pee-pee. They always have her pee in a bag at the dr and this time you could actually SEE little white floaties in her pee. Meaning, it's a pretty bad infection. Anyway, the culture came back today and I am waiting to hear from her specialist to see if this is any cause for concern. I imagine not but that it will mean she will be put back on a daily, preventative antibiotic. Dang those megaureters! We had an ultrasound done in January and everything was almost back to normal size. But, it's only been 5 months since her surgery and I'm sure it will just take some time for her to keep healing. It WAS a major surgery (4 hours and 6 nights in the hospital people! Don't forget!) Anyway, she is definitely better but still running a low grade fever. Poor girl! On Friday when she was so sick she still managed to wave at everyone she saw...my brother, the little girl in the waiting room, the cars that pull up beside us at the stop lights. What a sweetie!

And third...this picture is evidence of what kids do when you ignore them for a few minutes. Dan and I were digging through all the boys baby photos this weekend. She was sitting behind me on the couch 'playing' quietly. I treasured those 10 minutes of not having to pull pictures out of her grubby little hands! Well, when I turned around this is what I found...

Poor girl's cheek was red from the fever. Thankfully, Cheez-Its don't leave a big greasy blob on the couch! I should have known though...all forms of crackers are crunched up by this girl!
