Let me just start by letting you know this is going to be a very random post.....
Camdyn has an ear infection. Yes another ear infection. Yes she has tubes and should not be getting them so much, but regardless she has an ear infection. I got a call from school on Thursday afternoon about 12:45 letting me know that her ear was draining a bunch of gunk. Matt was able to call and get her an appointment with the ENT at 2:15, thank goodness the nurse practicioner had a spot to see her so fast. He went to pick Cam up at school and I met them at the office. The nurse practicioner told us that she could tell it was infected by the color of the drainage. Just to be gross for a second; there was a ton of drainage. Matt said when he picked her up it was all over her face, and her ear was full of gunk when we got to the office. So they took a culture of it and we should hear back what kind of infection/bacteria it is middle of next week. In the meantime she gets ear drops twice a day for 7 days. Luckily since she does have the tubes at least she doesn't need an oral antibiotic to treat the infection. Once the ear started clearing out she started getting back to eating much better and sleeping better. Thank goodness!!
Saturday was another ASU game. It was fun to get back into tailgating and a game since it has been a while since the last home game. This weekend was homecoming so we took the girls over to watch the parade. It wasn't a very exciting parade but I think the girls enjoyed it.

While we were at our tailgate we got to do something pretty exciting. Jimmy Kimmel went to ASU and since it was homecoming he was doing a taping during the football game. As luck would have it his camera crew set up all their stuff right next to our tailgate!! The guys were playing beer pong and they wanted to film a segment where they were playing and Ya-Ya (a funny guy Jimmy sends out to tape stuff, I guess) would come up and they were just supposed to go with the flow of what he did. Turns out the guys had to drink hummus. Lindsey had to try it first and she said it tasted worse than sour milk..... um awesome??? Then the guys lined up and they took big swigs of it. It was pretty hilarious watching them all drink it and how their faces re-acted. Ya-Ya and Matt gave their cups to each other and it was just all over Matt's face. Disgusting to watch, haha. They also filmed a cars.com segment with the 4 of us. Tatum was terrified of him but she did give him a high five at the end. Camdyn did good and didn't even cry when Ya-Ya held her. They taped different segments with all of the tailgaters in our line of cars, just doing silly things. We aren't watchers of Jimmy Kimmel Live but it was such a fun thing to get to do!! We will see if anything they taped at our tailgate will air or if it all ends up cut. But none the less we all had a great time. Watch for it Tuesday night!!

Of course ASU won big time over the CU Buffaloes. So it was fun to have such a big win. Tatum did a lot better with the fireworks. She is still terrified every time they go off, but it is just while they go off. We didn't spend any time in the team shop at all, which is a big improvement. Very proud of her!! Cam did good at the game too. She slept a lot of it and just looked around taking it all in the rest. Tatum has become a pro at the pitchfork sign. She is so proud of herself for being able to do it now!!

Our running this week went pretty good. We got a new stroller because the wheel totally busted off the old one, and the new one rolls like a champ. This morning we did 4 miles, our farthest run yet. It was a lot different running in the morning than at night. Much harder if you ask me. We did pretty good. We did it in about 55 minutes, still walking some. Still not the fastest, but we are doing it and that is what matters. Matt is so great telling me I can do it and to keep going, best trainer ever!!
And finishing up this random post.... Camdyn is standing up so tall. She can pull herself up and down and stand straight up while holding something. She can even do a little walking if she is pushing on something. Let the countdown to walking begin!!
