Last night the dinner options were a grill your own steak house and mexican. Joe and I rock paper scissored to decide, and the steak house won. I had a salad, baked potato, piece of toast, most of a huge ribeye, and a big piece of carrot cake. It was so good I didn't want to stop. I felt okay right after eating, but it hit me on the ride home ( Read more... )

Leo's fever finally broke yesterday after the second molar was through, but then a spotty rash appeared on his stomach and back. I did some research and it turns out he has roseola. I took him to the doctor today just to make sure and she said it was probably a viral infection. I asked her about roseola and she said yes, that was probably the ( Read more... )

Oh the last few days have been rough. Curse you, molars. Leo has been running a fever on and off, and he's been crabby, sleepy, and sleepless. Basically just plain miserable. His left bottom molar pushed through overnight a couple nights ago and I think the second one is mostly through. There were these dark purple spots on his gums where they ( Read more... )

I managed to squeeze Leo's playpen into this very messy computer room, so maybe I will have more online time from now on ( Read more... )

My poor little man had a fever all day, and still does. I've been giving him Motrin and Tylenol since 1am, which always makes me uneasy, but it's necessary. This last time the Tylenol wore off after 4.5 hours and he had a fever of 102. I gave him more and it's back down to the high 99s ( Read more... )

Leo has been so fussy these past few days. He's driving us crazy and I'm exhausted. Luckily Ron has had the past three days off. He can drive me crazy too and add to the stress, but it's nice being able to pass the baby off. So why do I still feel guilty? Leo is fussing now, like he has been all day, but I left him with his dad to have some ( Read more... )

My boobs are starting to look like shit as Leo is eating more solids. I'm sad, nursing made them look fabulous haha. They were huge! This sounds horribly shallow, but I wouldn't be opposed to a boob job when I'm done having kids. I had tiny boobies pre-pregnancy and I loved having big ones! I wish they would stay like that forever on their own ( Read more... )

For the past two nights, Leo has been waking a lot. & I'm tired. I assume teething is the verdict. He's cutting his top front teeth. However, I really can't complain about teething, because he has been pretty easy on us so far. I didn't even know his first two teeth were coming until Ron noticed the little razor blades poking through when Leo ( Read more... )

I haven't sat down all day and I'm exhausted ( Read more... )

There is nothing, absolutely nothing, sweeter in this world than waking up to Leo's cute smiling face. He gives me a reason to drag myself out of bed, even when I want to sleep in. He is my light and my world. Then I look over at my man and realize how lucky I am to have such a great, loving daddy for my son.
