Final Marathon Update and a couple of Boo Boos
Well, I did it! 27 miles! I wanted to make it to 30 miles, but I sort of banged up my knees while at the Tigers game yesterday. It's so embarrassing how it happened.
First of all, I think I'm going to start wearing a knee brace when I run. Near the end of my run, my knee has been starting to hurt. Anyway, yesterday because of the cold weather, my knees were stiff. They're doing a lot of construction at Arrowhead, so we had to walk clear around to the other side...I know, don't you think we should have gotten to ride a tram or something?! I digress.
We had really good seats, and we had to go down a lot of steps which did not help the knee situation. Once we finally made it to our seats, we stood the entire time. The first half of the game was slow, but the second half the Tigers came out to play!
I got so excited jumping around and hugging everyone, I flung myself onto the seat in front of me ramming my right knee. Not to leave the left one out, stupidly I did the same thing in the fourth quarter when they took the lead again (only this time it was the left knee)!
When we got home, my knees were hurting (no kidding!). I now have two huge knots (boo boos), one on each knee...and the Tigers still lost :(

It was a cold and wet day...
and we spent it watching our beloved Tigers battle it out against border rival Jayhawks! The Tigers lost by 3 in the final seconds of a very exciting game! Darn!
Here are a few pictures from the day!

Weren't we just at the dr's office?
The week of Halloween, I posted about Jackson having an ear infection. Today, I am posting about Jackson having a double ear infection. UGH! I think this is the third one since August.
He had a low grade fever over the weekend, and it never broke. By Monday afternoon, when we got to the dr's office, his fever was almost 104. I seriously did not think he felt that warm! I figured it was his ears because...well, because I think I'm a dr myself sometimes! Anyway, it was his ears (both of them!), and he was prescribed an antibiotic.
We picked up his meds from the pharmacy and headed home. By the time we got home an hour later, his fever had broken! Yea!! Unfortunately, the dr says if the ear infections continue, he has to go to the ENT.

I heart Reese's Peanut Butter Christmas Trees
I love them so much that I ate 1/2 of a 1 lb, 10 oz bag of them. Can you believe I have a really bad stomach ache?
