Fun day

Today was Hannah Cooper's 8th birthday party. We decided to go over early to visit with Grandma. Connor had fun playing on the piano:

Next, it was time for swimming and food of course:

Then it was time for CUPCAKES. Connor went crazy when he saw them and had to have one RIGHT THEN. Not sure why b/c he has not had cake or icing since his first birthday. He had a vanilla and chocolate one because the first one fell on the ground and man was that upsetting to him :)

Finally, getting better

Well I finally decided to go to the dr on Tuesday and she said I had a sinus infection (no surprise), ear infection (kinda surprised) and bronchitis(WHAT!!!) so I'm on a load of meds that are finally kicking in and I'm not coughing anymore. Looking forward to catching up on school work tht had gotten behind.

I'm taking Connor to the doc tomorrow b/c he's had a bad diaper rash for about 2 weeks now. We went once already and they said it was a yeast infection. I made a home diaper cream out of 4 ingredients and it was working until yesterday. I picked him up from daycare today and she said his bottom had been bleeding and sure enough its really bad again. So I think we need an Rx for something strong to knock it out. Since Connor is almost 18 monthsd old I'm going to try to squeeze in his well check up tomorrow. Cross your fingers :)

OK, chao for now

Well this house still is not completely better. We'll be good for a few days then one of feels bad again. Its getting really old. I guess everything has to run its course. I know Connor brings home germs from daycare and we can't help that. Speaking of daycare, last week, which was week six for him, was the first time I was able to leave without him crying!!!! Everyday since I kiss him bye and he waves bye to me. So sweet. It took six weeks but we made it :)


Last weekend we had a picnic and Connor fell and got his first busted up nose:



Combine the scab with a snotty nose in the morning and its a lot of fun getting him cleaned up, let me tell ya. Its getting better now, just scabby (if that's even a word)

Here's a cute video of Connor showing us his smile and body parts he knows:

On the job front, I was informed that I can't see patients at Shands Lake Shore so on Monday the 21st I am beginning to work with the lactation Consultant at Shands UF in Gainesville. This is so much better for me. I will a lot more experience and hands on contact. The only down side is driving there two days a week. We figure it will cost about $15 per trip :0 and gas isn't getting any cheaper. Oh well, I have no choice about this, I have to get the contact hours for my degree.
