So it's been awhile, a LONG while since I have last blogged so I need to be a little bit better about that. It's funny I thought for sure with Michael gone and no distractions once Parker went to bed I would be able to blog all of the time BUT with Michael gone and doing the whole "single" parent thing I am EXHAUSTED every night. And about the only thing I want to do is look at fb, watch a little tv and go to bed;) Thinking and typing takes too much energy, ha ha ha! No, I love blogging just need to take the time to do it. We have tried to stay as busy as possible as we have done through out most of this deployment. It helps pass the time, plus I feel so fortunate to be able to stay home with Parker I want to get him out into the world doing hands on things as much as possible. Although venturing out without any help at times is a little overwhelming, if you have met Parker you know he is a BUSY bee! He NEVER stops if his stroller isn't moving then he is whining to get out, he wants to go, go, go! My mother came to visit and as always it was fantastic. I was pampered courtesy of my husband at the spa! I got my hair done and a massage, it was sooo amazing! It's funny I even enjoyed the car ride to the spa I turned up the music and sang the whole way there. And not once did I have to push play on the dvd, hand back a sippy cup, pass snacks back, get hit in the head with a bouncy ball, or console a crying toddler! It was wonderful, although I was excited to see my lil man after my spa day away from him. While my mom was here my cousins from AL came to visit and brought their beautiful baby girl!!!! We had such a great time visiting with them, but Parker was SUPER fussy the whole time and I just knew something was going on with him. Sure enough his fever spiked later that night and so I decided we should just go ahead and take him to the ER. Nothing was making him comfortable and when he only wants to snuggle in your lap you know something is wrong because as I stated before he doesn't stop for two seconds. So luckily we were in and out in 30 minutes, yes you read that right 30 minutes it was CRAZY. But don't worry we made up for the great time by searching forever for a 24 hour pharmacy. It ended up being his ears. He had a double ear infection. Poor baby. So he seems to be doing much better and our ped said at our follow up his ears looked great. Oh and he weighs 36 lbs now YIKES, such a big boy. We are really starting to count down the days until daddy is home. Can't wait!!! We miss him so much!!!!! Well I will try to blog sooner;)
