How much benadryl will it take?

I was doing stuff on the computer the other day when I turned around and found Emma asleep. It was 5:00. I thought "no way are you doing this to me at this hour" so I proceeded to wake her up. She was way more dopey than I thought she should be after what we had done that day. So I just tried to keep her up until 7:00. At bed time I had gone into my room when I noticed the benadryl bottle on my night stand...EMPTY. Click, click, click the pieces came together. Emma had taken the last 1/4 of the benadryl. No wonder she was so tired. When I called my mom to tell her that I now knew what dose it took to knock Emma out she asked me why I had given her that much. I told her "I didn't. She drank it in my room in the middle of the afternoon". I couldn't believe it. How she got the CHILDPROOF cap off is beyond me. Benadryl normally makes her hyper but I guess now I know what dose will knock her out right? Just kidding

Dodgers lost, we lose a tooth, and we have a pass out


We went to one of our favorite Dodger games recently. It is one where you got to watch a Celebrity game also. It is always a good time. What typically happens is you get to go on the field (before the regular game) and watch the celebrities play and you can run around in outfield. Then you get a watch the Dodgers play. Well this year the Dodgers played first and the celebrity game was after. We got tickets in the All You Can Eat Pavilion which was a lot of fun. All the foot long Dodger dogs you can eat plus popcorn, nachos, peanuts, soda and water. Because the Dodgers played first it ended up being a day game. Good thing we were in the All You Can Eat Pavilion because I think we drank our moneys worth that day. We were in outfield and had the sun blazing on us in the heat of the day. It was suppose to be 91 degrees that day (that is what it said when we checked but who knew that they do the temperature by the airport which is right by the ocean. Much much cooler over there then where Dodger Stadium is) so we were prepared for hot but not for HOT. It ended up being 115 degrees. That is a whole lot of HOT that we were not expecting. During the game Emma fell of the bench and of course fell right on a metal piece on the bench in front of us and nice big scape up her back. Also while we were watching the Dodgers play Tanner turned to me and his tooth that was a tiny bit loose now was a whole lot loose. He has a hard time getting teeth to come out so I told him how cool it would be to lose it while at Dodger Stadium. So he decided to play work on getting it out. 7th inning stretch came and went and he still hadn't lost the tooth. In the 9th inning he looks at me and says "mom it is out". We were all excited and I got my camera out and was taking a picture when all of a sudden someone falls on my lap. I look down and Emma is laying on my lap. I thought for a second that she was just playing around when it hit me she had passed out. We went from Tanner that is great laugh laugh high 5 to a oh my goodness and trying to throw my camera to someone before she fell off my lap. She came around pretty quick but what a scare. We took her down to the covered area and soaked her head with water and got some sugar in her to perk her up a bit. Mike wanted to leave but my worry was if she passed out again I didn't want to be in LA traffic. So we stayed there for awhile longer to make sure she was okay and close to the medical staff. The Dodgers lost and we didn't end up staying for much of the celebrity game Tanner wanted to play on the field a bit so we did that and left. What a day. Never a dull moment around here I tell you.

It has been too long

I know I haven't written in awhile. We have had company and have been having such a busy summer. I always though summer would be so much easier. Well I was wrong and I can't wait for school to start to have my schedule back. Anyways I am going to try to catch you up a bit on what we have been doing that past 1 1/2 months or so.
