Last week was a whirlwind.
I completed a case that I’ve been working on for 7 years and Dave’s been working crazy hours on a new product launch. Then to add to the fun, I decided to take on the Ice Cream Social, the PTSA’s largest event of the (and really one of the largest events for our small town, lol). This year I was in training and that meant 2 days of prep work and running around the school with the current coordinator. The kids thought it was cool because I got to drive them to school and have lunch with them and get them right after school.
The event went lovely and the kids had a great time. My parents came up to help and then took Noomi home for the night as Ajax had his doctor’s appointment in Ann Arbor the next morning. Dave and I both took him and the doctor did an exam and seemed to rule out Crohns. She reordered blood work and prescribed a cleanse. That of course meant that we all spent the weekend at home. Really that suited us just fine as the whole family was beyond beat. Both kids had fun watching movies and playing video games with Dave as it was just cold and windy outside. We let Ajax stay up late one night and watch a movie with Dave and I and eat popcorn. The cleanse didn’t really seem to help his stomach and next the doctor stated that we would try reflex medicine. She also said possible gluten intolerance or stress. Guess we’ll wait on the results.
With all of Ajax’s stomach issues Noomi has been walking around stating that her throat hurts “really bad.” But she’s 4 so it’s hard to know. OH, I also freaked out and decided that she wasn’t ready for kindergarten and opted to do young 5’s instead. The school secretary didn’t think I was totally nuts, but I may have over-explained my thought process.
