Elliott is always a little bit of a wreck, but it's been especially bad lately. He had an ear infection about a week and a half ago, took some antibiotic for that, and was free and clear of any sort of snot or cough for like 3 whole days. Now, he's back to being miserable. He's got a nasty cough, goopy eyes, and is just generally miserable. There have been some long night, crabby evenings, and lots of coughing. It may be a long weekend with him.
So, between all the sickness, working a 50 hour week last week, and some other odds and ends we have been pretty darn busy.
In other news, Emma has really been enjoying her dance class lately. We had her last class tonight, and they did a fairy dance routine. It was pretty adorable. I think she will miss her dance class, she really enjoyed the interaction with the other kids.
Elliott turned 15 months on Wednesday. We had his check up on Thursday, and everything looks good. He weighs in at 30 pounds, which is only 3 pounds shy of Emma. He got 2 shots, took them like a champ, and is overall looking very healthy and reaching his milestones with no problem. So, all good news there. Now, if only he could stop getting a cold constantly.
There's not really a whole lot else that is new and exciting happening in the Nelson Household. Emma had a really fun Valentine's Day party at her daycare, and we had fun decorating the house and making Valentine's for friends and family. Emma is very into crafts and painting lately.
We don't have much for plans this weekend. The weather is supposed to be gorgeous, like sunny and in teh 50s, so I hope we can take advantage of that. It anything, I want to open some windows and air the house out a little and see if we can kill some bugs. Also, I may wash bedding, blankets, pacifiers, and clorox wipe the house down in hopes of having a break from all the snot and coughing. A girl can hope right? Spring is coming. Spring is coming.
My parents are in Mexico right now, and my brother just got back from Hawaii. All I have seen are tropical, warm pictures these last couple weeks. And I am sick of it. It looks like they had fun, and I am happy for them, but I am sick of all the vacation pics. John and I need a vacation. Badly.
Anyway, this momma is tired and needs some sleep. Hope everyone has a fabulous weekend, and hopefully by my next post this household is a little healthier :)
