This is David at the doctor’s. Look at those piercing eyes. Even with pinkeye, he looks amazing. I took him to the doctor today cause last night as I put him to bed, I realized he was burning up and it turned out he had a temperature of 102. When I looked it up online, it said pinkeye and temperature together could mean ear infection so I figured better safe than sorry. I think I jinxed him by telling the doctor how healthy he’s been when I took him in for the yearly checkup last week. Oh well. He has no infections and the fever is down a bit today so we’ll see how tomorrow is.
I seem to be doing ok today, gave up on trying to be super-productive and just taking it easy. Resting, relaxing, and reading. And just in case you thought I might be done with the tulips, I bought a purple bunch today so expect some more photos later this week.
Happy Monday!
What can I tell you? I can’t help myself.
A quiet day around here. Exhaustion, heartburn, and nausea translates to not doing much besides sitting around. The fact that it’s raining cats and dogs isn’t doing much to inspire me to go out either. So David and I are just enjoying some relaxing time togehter.
I’ve been thinking a lot about writing and how I spend my time lately. More on this later. Off to lie in bed and read some. I hope you’re having a great weekend.
I know it’s the crappiest photo and, in retrospect, I should have taken a screenshot instead of a photo but I don’t care. HAPPY BIRTHDAY YONA!!! My wonderful sister is born on this very special day and I am so sorry I am not there to give her a huge hug in person. But I am still very thankful for computers and the fact that I was able to talk to her and see her this morning.
Little boy had a rough night last night, he was up on and off all night. Have I mentioned he woke up with pinkeye yesterday? Yeah, that was fun. I think his nose is all stuffed up so it’s been bothering him and keeping him up at night. Jake also had a rough night cause he drove all the way to SFO to realize he missed his flight and had to come back home and fly out this morning. It did mean I got to spend some time with him on Valentine’s day which was fun but all of us are a bit worn out from the long night.
Here’s Jake and David checking out a special lego set Jake owns. Another daddy-David moment.
I’m officially ready for my long, relaxing weekend to begin. I have some fun movies to watch, chocolate, and a few good books to curl up with. What more can a girl ask for?
Happy Valentine’s Day. May you have a wonderful one filled with health, peace, and love.
Yesterday was David’s 4-year checkup. Our doctor is so nice and sweet and good with David that it’s a joy to watch them. Here he is letting David listen to his own heartbeat. We also did an eye test and a hearing test and everything else. All seems to be well for our healthy little one. Knock on wood.
David was so funny during the hearing test that we had to do it three times. The rule was that you had to raise your hand when you hear a sound and put it down when the sound goes away. David was so distracted that he’d either forget to raise his hand or forget to put it down. Finally after the third time we explained, he did focus for a few minutes and passed with flying colors.
Love the funny looks he has. I know it’s been a lot of David lately but
I love them and want to make sure I get a lot of them. David’s been a
bit sadder and moodier than usual and I am not sure exactly why.
Otherwise he’s just perfect as usual. Tomorrow’s our yearly checkup so I
guess we’ll see if something is wrong.
I’m doing well otherwise too. Trying to rest as much as possible and
trying to get mentally ready for the little one.
Little boy wanted his teddy bear along this morning which was really odd
as he’s not the teddy bear type. But it looks like he was not being
himself all day cause when I went to pick him up they said he was sad
and out of it all day and wanted to go home. They had even called me but
I missed it cause I was in a meeting which, of course, made me feel sad
and guilty.
I’ve been ok today. I think while Mondays are the hardest meeting-wise,
I am most rested on Mondays so I go through them more easily. David and
I spent the evening being lazy since neither of us felt like being
productive so we lay on the couch and watched TV as we snuggled up.
Happy Monday.
Happy Birthday little boy! Today he turned four. I can’t believe he’s
four already. The years really are short.
He has grown up to be such an amazing boy. Kind, generous, sweet, and so
loving. Funny, silly, and fun. I am so so proud to be his mom.
This is how he waited while we were singing so he could blow the candles
as soon as we were done. (I blurred the other kids since I didn’t want
to worry about having them on the internet. And here’s one more after
the candles are out.
I don’t know if it’s nesting or OCD but I have been wanting to cleanup
and organize David’s toys for weeks so on our trip to Costco for David’s
party, we bought some containers and some ziplock bags and I’ve just
been cleaning, sorting, and organizing all day.
It was a lot of work but it looks so much better now.
And here’s a little shot of David. This is the face he makes when he’s
done something wrong but says “It’s ok Mommy. It’s ok.” When he wants me
to let him know that it’s ok and I am not mad. Who could ever be mad at
this little boy?
Look how the tulips have bloomed. I love tulips more than any other
flower. Bar none.
It’s been a few rough days here. I’ve been really tired. I mean
really tired. David’s been such an incredible doll. He’s been
playing by himself and helping me out and just doing anything and
everything he’s told. Just so thankful for the little one.
David’s birthday is this weekend and we decided to celebrate it today at
school. It was really sweet and he got to have both me and his Daddy
there with him. The candles were trick candles and kept re-lighting up
which was funny.
Nothing much more today except that I am getting more and more exhausted
and it’s officially starting to worry me a bit. Not to mention frustrate me.
