If you remember back to last week, I was home with a sick baby. I got right back into the my old stay-at-home-mom habits and after one too many days of not getting dressed, not doing my hair or makeup, and munching whenever I got hungry, I started to feel like crap. It is amazing…
Health
Prioritizing
In what I am sure is going to be an overarching theme during this entire year, our household was struck with illness once again this past weekend. I keep thinking we’ve tried every sickness that could possibly be spread at daycare, and then… …and then Cameron starts pussing from the eyes. So, on Monday (and…
Ragamuffin
There is still one thing that I have yet to get used to about being a Mom. It seems as though I am completely unable to dress this new body of mine. You wouldn’t know it by looking in my closet or on my bedroom floor (I will NOT post a picture for fear of…
When You’re Dancing With Your Honey…
…and his nose is kinda runnyand you think it’s kinda funny,Well it’S NOT*Typical. That’s my son for you. A typical snotty nosed kid. I love kids. I always have. But I used to get so grossed out when parents would let their kids run around with snot all over their faces. Grossest thing EVER! Shouldn’t…
Thankful Thursday: March Edition
Today marks the last day of March. And of course, we find Cameron sick again. Let me just say, I’ve been waiting for this day for a while. March has just thrown a lot of hard stuff our way. And I’m really just ready for it to be over. I’m ready for a fresh start….
Sick of the Sick
Daycare is going fine. The teacher is nice, the kids have fun, and Cameron is so messy and played out by the end of the day that it is super easy to get him bathed and in bed. Except that daycare isn’t going fine. Not at all. Because we’ve been struck with The Daycare Plague….
iPhoneography: Commuting
We’re currently in the middle of Apocalypse Daycare which has brought with it high temperatures, runny noses, coughs, serious baby malaise, and lots of sleepy snuggles. (Can someone please remind me why daycare is so awesome?). While all of this has been going on, my maternity leave ended and I went back to work. I am writing…
Love Immunized
I kind of feel bad about yesterday’s post. I feel bad that I was busy feeling sorry for myself when my baby was going from “coming down with a pesky cold” to being in a full blown respiratory disaster. He currently sounds like an old lady who has been smoking all her life, and his…
Thank you Dr. Google
Cameron’s mysterious illness has been diagnosed. And by “diagnosed”, I mean that Dr. Google (with an MD from Wikipedia U) has diagnosed it. Because walk-in clinic doctors are clearly under-qualified*. I’m pretty sure Cameron has Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease (HFMD). Here is how I diagnosed Cameron. Symptoms Cameron displays: Fever Fatigue Malaise Non-itchy body rash…
Mommy Knows
Cameron is sick. I’m sure of it. You see, he has a rash that has shown up on different parts of his body. He slept horribly last night and woke up with a fever. He refused to nurse. All these things lead me to believe that my baby is very ill. Unfortunately, the doctor doesn’t…
Thinner Thursday: Swift Kicking
It’s that time of week again. The day that I wake up first thing in the morning with my baby, take a quick trip to the bathroom, and stand on the Wii Fit to weigh-in (while trying to keep my son from crawling all over the balance board and throwing off the weigh-in). I did…
