I am a little behind in my blog posts and I skipped a milestone. Blake's first illness, scary, sad, awful but we all survived.
Here is how it went down
1. Daddy brings home germs gets a cold for 5 minutes, seriously like 1.5 days.
2. Mommy gets a cold for 4 days or so, is unable to stay away from baby, you know breastfeeding, co sleeping, primary caregiver it's pretty impossible.
3. We think we are in the clear until 7 days later baby wakes up with a cough. OH NO! Mommy freaks out.
4. Visit from Daddy's family, Blake cuddled and loved all day and appears to be doing great.
5. 8 pm that night illness intensifies and frantic call to my Shannon ends up in visit to Urgent Care. Baby has Croup, no fun.
6. Baby sick for a week or so, does great such a trooper.
7. Mommy's turns into awful sinus infection, goes on Z pack.
8. Baby gets diaper rash from antibiotics I am sure of it.
9. All housework behind, but grateful all in healthy and happy.
Daddy really tried to keep his germs to himself.

Grandma and Blake looking at the cool music table she brought for him, illness just beginning.
We had a lot of this face, runny nose and all.

And a lot of open mouth breathing.
Oh the laundry that piles up when mommy is out of commission and not up to par. It was all clean though, just needed to be put away.

Are those PJ's he's wearing in the bottom 2 pics, he looks like such a big boy in them :-)
They are pjs, babygap two piece pjs that Aunt Rachael got him!
thanks Lauren! I'm just so glad it's over...she'll have to have another when she's 4 or 5 before she starts school - already dreading it for her sake. Why will Blake need surgery? :( He is too cute and getting SO big!! I love those chubby cheeks! :)
