No Place Like Home

Liam was so happy to see Mommy at the airport yesterday. He was sitting on Daddy's shoulders, looking around... then he saw me, and his normal inquisitive expression broke into a giant smile, complete with a giggle. He reached for me and wouldn't let go. Running through Dulles Airport (full sprint down two whole terminals) to make the tight connection and get home before his bedtime was so worth it.

While I was gone, Liam's new choo-choo arrived. He loves watching it go around all by itself. Plus it sings songs and teaches him letters (we'll see about that).

Another unwelcome guest arrived while I was gone. Liam's ear infections are back. The doctor today suggested the Ear specialist, who will likely suggest ear tubes. We'll know more on 10/2. Liam is really grouchy today, and I think he's in a lot of pain. Poor thing no longer responds to oral antibiotics, so he has to go in today, tomorrow and Friday for an injection in each thigh. We really *hope* that does the trick.
