This is a blog about our life. I started the blog because we lived overseas for my husbands job. That meant it was hard to keep family, back in The States, in the loop about what we were up to. It also became a great way to share my sons birth story with everyone who we wish could have been there. I slowly got busy with life & stopped blogging. Here we are in 2014, living back in the good ol' USA & as we make life changes I find this to be a great way to share my thoughts and save them for my son to look back on someday.

Baby Fever!

No not that kind of baby fever; my baby actually has a fever. He was sent home from daycare yesterday with a fever. Ran all night. Finally when I checked his temp about 3:30am it was down. It's after 7 now and still down. Hopefully that's a good sign. No idea what caused it. I pretty much go into crazy mode when he has a fever. I check his temp every two minutes. The mr thinks its hilarious & laughs at me but knows its just something I gotta do. Geez my baby is trying to sleep on construction out back is so loud UGH! Anyways, my husband is awesome. When the kid is sick he sleeps in our bed so I can keep an eye on him all night. The mr's body temp is just too hot to lay in bed w the kid when he has a fever so he made a bed on the floor next to us.  I know he was uncomfortable but he did it anyways. I just love & appreciate him! 

While the kid is rarely sick, he has been sick before so that's not new but what is new this time is that I work. My heart sank when the daycare lady called that Zyon was sick. I felt like I should have been home with him... I also am trying my best not to miss work because I'm new. So the mr picked him up from daycare....(his temp wasn't too high or I would have gone myself). This morning is my first time calling into work. It's really weird for me. It's weird because I always take work serious & don't want to miss days when I don't have to. I never even called in at previous jobs unless I was dying & even then my boss usually had to send me home sick. I guess this is what it's like to be a working mom. I think I take it so hard because I'm making the choice to work. I feel like it could be a non-issue if I was still a SAHM.  Did I make the right choice to start working? I knew the first time he got sick would be the first time I really question the choice I made....
98.2° lets pray it stays that way.

I haven't blogged much. I have been wanting to though. We are always just so busy on the weekends. I want to blog about the kids bday party. Every time we do something I think about how I want to document it for the kid to have to look back on someday. I have to remember to take a minute and write things down for him...

He loves fishing! He either catches Nemo or Bruce LOL
He thinks he is grown. Already floating the frio!
Putting on his new Mohawk helmet! I was shocked when he picked it.
New bike! He is ready! I am told he races the neighbor kid lol
