The week from...

UGH!!! Julian has been sick! I feel so bad for him...a really nasty cold! Green buggers....just plain yucky! I am not use to him being sick. We have been very lucky for 10 months! So Tuesday night we did our normal routine of bedtime, gave him his bottle, he began to snuggle after he had it, then he coughed a few times and then...vomit!!! I jumped up, yell down stairs for Jeff, he comes in with windex and paper towels in hand...I looked at him really weird, thinking...you weren't even a boy scout! I sit Julian on the changing table to change him, so I lay him down, he starts to cough again, so I sit him up and then (I have taken my vomit filled sweater off,so now I am standing in my bra) he projectiles everywhere(down my bra, down the front of me, lands on my feet!)...I mean everywhere...I kept saying your ok, your ok...mean while, I keep looking at Jeff and say what do we do? So that went on 5 more times...Julian was fine, happy and full of vomit! So Jeff, runs the bath, I get Julian undressed, we put him in the tub and he preceeds to be as happy as he was before this horrible cold! I clean up the bedroom...it is everywhere! I am so suprised at myself for not vomitting myself. So Weds. night he went to sleep fine, he had no temp, and slept through the night, getting up at 5:30am to cry a bit then back to sleep. Jeff gave him some water and juice and he kept it down, so now it is BRAT time. The doctor and I both agree it is most likely from the post nasal drip! Man I felt like I was in a movie, I have never seen anything like it in all my life! But we made it through!

So today was a long day! Mom and dad normally take him but they are sick...we think they caught their colds from the ER. So Jeff was with him all day. I love to hear how their day goes...Jeff gives me the play by play. So he calls me at work and says..."Julian asked for your picture because he doesn't remember what you look like, since you have been gone all day!" Ok, I left for work at 10:30am and it was around 2:30pm...I love how they make you feel guilty! Then my work phone rings at 4:30pm..."when are you coming home?" UGH! So I call Jeff when I am in the car...it is now 5:15pm...He says to me "Julian left...he went looking for you" I said really...how did he leave? "in his stroller" I said who is pushing it?" he said"no one!" we both laugh thinking about Julian in his stroller with a stick, like an ore from a row boat! Needless to say, I made it home to dinner on the table, baby already fed dinner and a nice warm welcome from my hubby, julian and our dogs...I tell you...after the day I had, it was nice to see all of them happy to see me!

Jeff is still on vacation and has promised the weekend to Julian and I! Jeff has been doing cores around the house all week...I am off tomorrow, so I am taking Gram shopping and spending some time with her. Everyone at work wants to see Jules...it has been a few weeks since he has been there. Then Saturday we are hitting all the farmer's Markets we can, stopping by Chuck and Michelle's house to drop stuff off...and the rest of the weekend is family time! So looking forward to it!!!
