TWO concrete pours added on a sweet little addition to the back patio. HUGE thanks to Stan the Man for all his help. Uncle Gary and Uncle Dave got dragged in a bit too-such handy men and helpers in our lives, feeling blessed.
THREE days of fever about two weeks ago Caden ran a fever of 101.5 for three days. varied a little but consistently hung around that temp. lethargic, not much interest in food or drink, thought too high for teething and just a random little bug but who knows-definitely not us. Little man didn't even notice the cheerio I placed on his nose one bit. Baby Animals is like the twilight zone-just sucks ya in.
FOURth tooth working it's way in...sssllloooowwwwly.
FIVE work days down-TGIF
SIX hours of date night last Saturday cut short to dinner and rented movie due to Gary's horrible bursitis. not a fun time for him to say the least :/
SEVEN weeks old nephew Toby and Denai welcomed Huckleberry Joseph Lee on June 22nd. He is adorable. feast your eyes and be jealous. the last making it look as if I'm giving him a head lock (not the case). He's adorable and his big sisters are wearing their title with pride
EIGHT days until Caden is 12 months old. less of a sting if you put it in months....are you flipping kidding me. 1st Birthday?! Sign me up for the cry session please. add my good aunt flo to that, a box of kleenex and P.S. I love you-I could get a years worth of crying out.
NINE hours of high temp yesterday. like, drop everything I was doing at work and go get him high. woke up with 101.5, advil helped that go down to 99 for daycare, yet a few short hours after spiked up to 103. dropped a degree after some advil and was able to get into the east location for Cadens doctors office. hand, foot and mouth diagnosis and outlook of '5 days with fever' later we were home with a whimpering 104.3 temp baby. had over an hour until another dose could be given, at the earliest, so a lukewarm bath was given which helped soothe and led to sleepy cuddles until we could give some milk and more advil before bed (104.7 at that point-insert freakout face here.)
TEN hours of sleep and woke up to see God truly blessing Caden through much needed healing. was a high 99, low 100 all day. Ate and drank and even played some-great day with daddy in our eyes-didn't expect such a positive turn around with the night before being so grim. God.is.good.
one, two, skip a few, ninety-nine, one hundred.
FIFTEEN day old nephew oceans away my brother and his wife had baby Alexander on Friday, July 26th. He is precious. I long to hold him, snuggle and kiss his tiny self, to hug them in congratulations and to laugh together-sleep deprived and all. they are already great parents-couldn't be more proud of and excited for them. Alex has the cutest expressions. He's a handsome little fella-love him so much.
