Uggh, sorry for the lack of posts!

2009-07-17T10:34:00.000-07:00

Hi guys, sooo sorry for the lack of posts recently. Yes, I am still back from vacation, but unfortunately it seems that my computer is not. I've been having MAJOR issues with my laptop, it can't even handle having firefox open without freezing these days, so I'm relegated to IE, and even then it seems like cnn.com is way too much for it to deal with. I hope to get it fixed or get a new one and be back to normal next week, sorry for the long absense!

The Joys of Parenthood...

2009-07-01T14:26:00.000-07:00

So, I'm sure you noticed the lack of posts yesterday and today.. well, Zach is sick, yesterday afternoon he woke up from his nap with a fever of 102 and we just went downhill from there :(. He was up pretty much all night screaming and burning up with a few hour long naps stuck in, so needless to say we're both exhausted today! His temperature and screaming were unchanged this morning so we took him to the doctor, turns out he has "herpangina" technical term that amounts to a viral infection that brings with it painful blisters to the back of the throat. We have a recommended treatment from the doctor and he's doing MUCH better today, although definitely not 100% by any means. He is thoroughly enjoying the prescribed pudding, milkshakes, and ice cream though (seriously, the doctor said that's what we should give him, lucky kid! I never had a doctor like that when I was little!!). Hopefully he'll be better soon, we're headed to San Diego on vacation tomorrow, and I had planned to line up some posts to go out while I was gone, but, I was planning to do that today, and with Zach being sick I haven't had time :(. So the lack of posts will continue unfortunately. Hope everyone has a GREAT 4th of July!!

Our doctor actually told us that it was as good as tummy time to build core muscles, which was great since Zach HATED tummy time!
