We Now Resume Normal Programming...

We got the camera! Hurray for pictures! It felt so weird not to be able to take pictures for those few days. This picture was taken in a tube at the playground, that's why it's a strange tint. William is sort of better, no fever, but he's really congested and has a bad cough. I brought him to the Dr and she gave us a prescription to bring with us to WA just in case. I am getting organized for the trip and am getting very excited to get there!

It's Gettin' Hot in Here!!

Saturday afternoon William developed a fever of 103.5, but other that seeming tired, he had no other symptoms. Since then he hasn't dropped back down below 100 even on tylenol or ibuprofen. It is so scary! I am taking him to the Dr tomorrow. I suspect Roseola, but I will let her decide. Until then, we are snuggling, drinking lots of grape Pedialyte, and watching lots of Sesame Street. I just hope he's all better before next Wednesday when we leave for Seattle!

Where the Heart Is...

In 12 days William and I will be heading home to Seattle. I can't wait. I love coming home so much. Jason can't go this time, since he is trying so hard to get so many projects wrapped up, but he is willing to bach it for a while. There is a camera on it's way to me right now, so pictures will resume soon.

Update...

Our camera finally breathed it's last breath. So now we are looking for a new one. William is totally recovered, and is back to his old vibrant self. Our dear friends Ann G and Ann K came to see us on Monday and we had a ball. We went to Mt Vernon and did some shopping, which is always fun. William loved having all the attention, and even referred to Ann K as Grandma this morning! So cute! I will post more pictures as soon as I get a new camera...

In the Trenches...

Man! Parenting is tough when vomit is involved. I am not great at dealing with vomit in general, even as a nurse, but I do my best when it is my own little puker. I feel so bad for him! He is just laying here, so sick. He has been asleep much of the day, and when not sleeping he is either having diarreah or vomiting. Poor baby. I hope he recovers quickly, and by some miracle we don't all get it!

Meadowside Nature Center...

Today we headed to the Meadowside Nature Center to check it out. It was great! William and I went on a hike in the woods and then saw lots of birds on display. We saw a bald eagle, and a vulture, and quite a few owls. All the birds had been injured and couldn't be re-released into the wild. William loved the owls, and kept hooting at them. So cute! We ended the outing in the discovery room where they had lots of fun toys and a bunch of tanks with reptiles in them that are native to the area. We had a great morning and will definitely be coming back!

The Olive Tunnel....

Crazy how time flies! I love taking pictures in the same spots so you can see how much he has changed. It's amazing how much he fills up the olive now! LOL!
