"Emergencies and Take Offs"

Liam and me are finally back in the south... were we belong! D.C. has a few nice attractions, and some gorgeous old buildings, but other then that it has nothing else to offer to me. The place is enough to make me go mad if I had to be there much longer. We saw some of the craziest things, and met some of the rudest people, oh and btw if you are going to go to a parking garage, eat at a restaurant, or shop, do not expect to interact with a waitress/teller who knows how to speak plain English because there is no such thing. I think the craziest thing we saw was we were driving by this street with a few restaurants on it and we saw a Chinese man scrapping mushrooms off of a tree into a bucket..... I can't help but think those mushrooms were for the Chinese restaurant on that street... yikes. I am just thrilled to the bone to be out of that city and to have Liam out of it. I did not feel safe there with him at all, especially not when we were driving because people there are nuts, especially taxi drivers. I have no desire to be in a place where you can't park a jacked up truck lol.





On a different note, last night little Liam projectile vomited several times in a row and I noticed afterward that his right eye was really swollen. Like twice the size as is left eyelid all the way up to his eyebrow. I was immediately concerned so I did what any new mom would do... I called my mom. She seems concerned to and said she thought we should probably go to the ER or a ready care to make sure that it wasn't infected since the eyes are so close to the brain. We went to the Walter Reed ER which is a military hospital. Well when we got there they said that Liam wasn't in their system so they were gonna have to call all these people to have him put in it before they could see us. Long story short we spent forever there and the only thing they told us was it was not infected, but that it was something of concern so to see his primary pyscian on Monday. Now I want to know why in the heck that doctor couldn't tell me why it was swollen and why I am gonna have to see another one here in TN. Sounds like someone didn't want to do their job if you ask me. It was really scary to have to take Liam to the ER, but I'm glad we got everything checked out and he seems to be doing much better today.
Liam is an awesome flyer btw. We got a ton of compliments about how good he was on the way to and from D.C. He didn't cry at all, he mainly just slept and giggled. That's my boy!
