29 and a day

so, it was a big birthday this year. very memorable, but not necessarily in a good way. one bright shining moment: carson started to call me mommy, not just mama. it's so sweet!! i'm not crazy about rain, so that just made it all the more depressing. the day started with me taking a sick baby to the doctor. he has been having a really bad cough, so we thought it should get checked out. good thing we did!! he has an upper respiratory infection, just shy of pneumonia. poor baby!! he also got the flu shot, which went over like a lead balloon. we left there to get his medicine at the pharmacy. since they weren't ready for us, we rode the "ni" 5 times to pass the time. carson seemed to enjoy it, so i couldn't complain. we went home to play and wait for daddy. when daddy got home, i had lunch ready for carson, but he didn't eat much. i left for work where we had a nice lunch and cake - yummy!! thanks, shelley. :) too bad daddy called to report that carson had fallen and hit his head in the garage. rough day, little guy! i came home to sweet cards from carson and cj. carson and i ran an errand while daddy made me chicken florentine - it was great! too bad i didn't get to eat for 30 mins or so; carson was very upset. i gave him a bath and even jumped in to enjoy the bubbles with him. of course, he had to slip and bump his head on the tub as we were getting out. man oh man, kiddo!! we snuggled up to tigger as we fell asleep.
i was home until 12 on tuesday since i had a late appointment. good thing i was home! i was nauseous all morning and carson wanted his mommy. lily ran away (was sorry to have to find her) - good thing she was at the neighbor's house. carson fell asleep on the way to linda's then wailed when i left. it was horrible! i wanted to grab him and run home. he fell asleep on our walk/run then we played in the bath again. i just love to hear him giggle!!
he's doing much better than he was, and he's doing a great job with his breathing machine. he helps put the fish mask on, then he likes to turn the machine on to start and off when done. good thing he's helping - he has to do it 3 times a day for a week! he likes his medicine. he takes the dropper and sucks the medicine out. makes life a lot easier. hopefully he'll be all better soon. i hate having a sick baby!!
fyi - so far, being 30 sucks, and i'm only 2 days into it!!

  1. Sure wasn't the best way to celebrate, was it? Glad to hear he is doing better and w/breathing machine.
