What a weekend!

Hi everyone!

It's been forever since I updated my blog. :)

MOPS on Friday went really well! I love the group and I look forward to making new friends! They have already invited me to a playgroup this Thursday. :)

Saturday night we did a trial run on the one girl we interviewed to babysit, because I really liked her. Chris and I went to dinner (just around the corner) and did some Christmas shopping. We were only gone 2 hours. She - Alicia - did really well and kept in touch with me via text and even sent a picture of Aidan. She brought Aidan some bubbles, a craft to do and a baby pumpkin to color on. When we came in Aidan was sitting on her lap watching cartoons. It was nice, I think he felt very at ease with her and had a good time. We have a Halloween party this Friday night, Aidan will already be in bed by the time we leave so Alicia will just be here making sure he is okay. She is great though, CPR certified, she's a CNA going to school to be a nurse

Ugh...so Chris has brought this nasty bug home from work. I'm not joking when I say his whole team has been out sick the last couple weeks.
Luckily, Aidan and I have really good immune systems and we had been fighting it off. Aidan and I got our flu shots Saturday morning, they wouldn't give one to Chris because he was sick. We were both fine, in fact I felt nothing from the flu shot.
Sunday, middle of the night, Aidan woke up with a fever. So we started him Tylenol & Ibuprofen, alternating them works the best!
He was all congested and coughing - just like Chris! We started the saline nasal drops/spray on him and they worked like a charm.
It was a rough day, but with a lot of cuddling and soothing and temp baths, he broke his fever Sunday night and has been fine since. Even his congestion is a lot better. This morning he is running around like a crazy boy!

Chris is STILL sick. I think he will have to go to the doctor. Unfortunately, I have picked up the bug. Sore throat, congestion...I am taking the over the counter stuff I am allowed to take and I using the saline spray (minus the snot bulb! LOL)
Oh and this weekend the baby, Keegan, and I were playing the poke back game! :-D I poke at him and he pokes back! I love it! How can I already be so in love with him?!

So I guess that's my update! I better go check on Aidan. I heard him jumping on our bed and watching cartoons. Good thing (being sarcastic) he's too smart for his own good and can turn on the TV via the remote (since it's wall mounted) and change the channel to Nick jr. He's a smart kid!
