H Town

Two weeks later and Davis is fully recovered. I really don't even know if recovery applies to his tubes. He was back to his normal happy self by the time we left the hospital and played all day like nothing had happened that morning. If anyone was in recovery, it was me, from the lack of sleep and restlessness over the whole procedure. At our one week follow up appt with the Dr, there was no sign of infection. For now, we are done with the ear drops, but still keeping up with the ear plugs. I guess this is where the 'no hair' thing comes in handy, we don't really have to dunk Davis' head in water to wash out the shampoo, so we had no trouble keeping water out of his ears.

For the first weekend in October, Davis and I went to Houston. We had so many things to do and people to see. It was Annie's birthday, so we helped her celebrate with a wine and cheese girl's night, shopping at the Galleria, and brunch at Brennan's. The Galleria has a great kid's area with a train ride and of course all the kid's clothing stores all in one place. Davis rode the Choo-Choo-Train and even got to visit with some puppies that were up for adoption. Brennan's hit the spot! If you haven't been, it's a must. Turtle Soup, Eggs Benedict, and Banana's Foster are the three signature items. Anything on the menu is fabulous.

My good friends Kelly and Collin recently moved to Houston, so we snuck in a visit with them and they graciously offered to babysit Davis while we were at Brennan's. It's not exactly a kid place, but ironically the table next to us had about 6 kids, one in a high chair.

I also got to see my sweet friends Courtney and Courtney (not a typo, there are two Courtneys, well three really, but the third was in Cabo for the weekend). One of the Courtneys has been on bedrest pregnant with her second little boy, who she happened to have over the weekend!!! His name is Wyatt and he is so beautiful. The other Courtney just had her baby boy, Jay, and I was so lucky to meet him and hold him. He is such a good baby, but I'm guessing he slept all day with us and kept Courtney up most of the night. If you're wondering where Forrest was all weekend while we were partying, he was having his own fishing party down in Port Mansfield.
