I am so frustrated. Colin has another ear infection. This makes 3 in each ear in the last 4 months. I'm frustrated b/c I breastfed him and he has had regular chiropractic care since birth. I'm about to lose faith in it all. I feel like he has had no benefit from any of it. I'm sure this is just a knee jerk reaction due to my frustration, but I think I'll reconsider if I have another child. Lots of people see the benefits of both, but I feel they have failed us. The breastmilk I probably shouldn't blame. When he had his first 2 ear infections he was mix fed, and his two since he has been on solids and formula. I don't know what to think.
On a happier note. Scott is a wine genius!! He passed his certified specialist of wine designation with flying colors. He studied so much. He had to know every grape; every way to make all wines and champagnes; every wine region in every country --ncluding their geography, grapes, and wine laws;, and so much more. It was intense just helping him study.
I think he might go for the certified educator of wine. This is really prestigious. He would have to due a "blind" taste test (where he can see the wine, but doesn't know what it is) and be able to tell the variety, single or blended, and age. This will require an investment of a lot of time and money (to get all the wine for him to practice virtually every night). He thinks he has someone that will pay for him to actually take the test and his accomodations. I think he'll decide in the next 2-3 weeks if he'll go for it.

Wow! I would be sooo intimidated by Scott if we went to dinner with you all. I know little to nothing about wine!
Double wow! I would also be frustrated by the many double ear infections in such a short period. I don't know what to tell you about ear infections. I just think some kids are more prone to ear infections than others, despite best efforts. It definitely sounds like you are giving Colin your best mommying.
Yucky ear infections! Sorry to hear about that!
Also, congrats to Scott!
