Can you hear me now?

Attention all blog readers, Jarem's ears are healthy!!! hehe This past week has been fun with Jarem. He's been slightly feverish, a teeny bit whiny and having troubles sleeping. He's also been batting and tugging at his ears quite a bit. All the symptoms of another ear problem brewing. Well yesterday was Jarem's follow-up with the Ear, Nose and Throat Specialist. I about fell over in shock when the doctor told me Jarem's ears looked great. Not only because that's the first time we've heard that in months, but also because I was stumped as to why Jarem has been having such a rough week. I guess I'll have to jock it up to the old teething excuse. But we're beyond excited and extremely hopeful that we will have no more ear problems with Jarem. He will go back in about three weeks for his hearing test and another exam. I am hoping it's more good news then. In the meantime, we'll just keep playing and loving our happy and healthy little boy. I am more hopeful after last night because Jarem stayed in his crib the entire night and slept for eight and a half hours straight. YAHOO!!! In any case, we're excited for this weekend together as a family and time with our healthy boy.

Tomorrow we're going to Rent. We are so excited!!! Eric's generous Aunt Linda got us tickets and our friends Karen and Uriel tickets too for Eric's birthday back in November. We've been looking forward to seeing Rent ever since then. We're really excited that it's finally here. We're going to have an adult date and leave the boys (Jarem and Raf) with babysitters at home. It is bound to be an amazing evening! So far we're planning on an afternoon movie, dinner at our favorite Mexican restaurant La Fonda (maybe even a few margaritas), Rent and then some late night dancing. I'll post more on Monday after our fun-filled weekend.
