Hearing or not?


We ran to town to pick up hot wings and pizza for dinner tonight and because we were only going to be gone 5 minutes, I didn't bother to bring the diaper bag. It never fails when you don't bring the bag the blowout happens! Luckily I had stashed Eli a spare diaper in the console of the car. So Miss Piggy that usually wears size 2 graduated to a size 6 tonight. 




I never ever would have wanted my sweet daughter to have a hearing impairment and I so wish she had perfectly good ears but here are a few perks to having a child with a hearing impairment. 

1. You can go to the movie theater and she will sleep right through the show. (We took her with us to see the Dark Knight and she slept so peacefully in my arms)
2. She can take naps without her 2 year old brother's screams waking her up. (This happens quite often--I was kicking myself today because I left them in during a nap and of course Eli screamed and there went the nap.)
3. She can sleep through Isaac's squeals of practicing the saxophone (he just started Jr high band--imagine how lovely that sounds).
4. Oh she gets tired while eating at a restaurant... out go the hearing aids and tada.. time to sleep!
5. Mommy and Daddy are having a disagreement... (What?? I didn't hear any yelling or fussing.) Not that that would ever happen ;) 


Love you Livi
