What a Week and Weekend!

Last Monday, I received the call that every parent dreads. Daycare called and Kendrick was running a fever and had thrown up his bottle. I rushed to pick him up and got him into the pediatrician that afternoon. Poor pumpkin had 2 ear infections. ;( For good measure, he also had a virus called "herpeangina", a virus that causes blisters on the back of his throat. The two are totally unrelated but of course he had to get them at the same time. However, the best part of him being sick was that he was super snuggly and only wanted to sleep on my shoulder. It has been a long time since he's fallen asleep on me and I loved every minute of it.


By Friday, Kendrick was feeling good again and was headed back to daycare. That same day, Greg flew to MN for a quick trip to see family and celebrate his mom's birthday (it's today... Happy Birthday, Sharon!) On Friday night, Greg, Greg's friend Justin, and Greg's parents went to the Twins game at the Metrodome. Before he left Atlanta, I had to be sure to dress Kendrick for the upcoming game (thanks for the outfit Grandpa and Grandma Seever!) Kendrick and Daddy looked so good together that morning!


While Greg was in MN, I definitely kept myself busy. Kendrick and I hung out together all day, taking Kirby for a couple of walks and running errands. While Kendrick napped that afternoon and then after he went to bed that night, I painted the bathroom.
Here's the bathroom before...




And after...







This coming weekend, as my birthday gift, Greg and I are painting the living room. I know Greg is thrilled to help with painting but I think the results will be worth it. I think one project at a time for the next 30 years will get us to where we want to be with the house. ;-)

  1. That is so sweet of him on your shoulder. I hope the ears stay clear! Welcome to daycare. I am glad he is feeling better though. He has gotten so big. Goodness. Happy EARLY birthday in case it passes my mind like everything else seems to be lately. I hope to get down to see you soon!!! Give him kisses!
