Quick Little Update

Happy World Breastfeeding Week! In honor of WBW... I just want to say THANK YOU to my mother for breastfeeding me. <3

This past weekend, Nathan and I celebrated seven years of marriage. My parents came up to spend time with Milo while we enjoyed a lovely meal and went to see a movie. And I'm pretty sure Milo didn't miss me a bit. :( I was a little sad, but really happy at the same time. Its nice being able to sneak away and spend time with my hubby, especially on our anniversary.

Last week Milo had kind of a mystery fever. It spiked up to 104 at one point. Aside from the fever and low appetite, there were no other symptoms. It lingered for about three days, then went away. Well... the next morning he woke up with a lovely rash from the top of his head down into his diaper area. Our first though was chicken pox... but a quick call to our pediatrician, and she said it was Roseola. Fortunately Roseola is a mild illness and the rash is a sign that its nearing its end. I'm pretty sure Milo probably caught it at the zoo. Roseola is very common in daycare centers. We visited the zoo... I let Milo touch the dirty windows in the gorilla area... with all the smudge prints from the massive number of kids that pass through (lots of daycares...) and then that night the fever came. Regardless... the rash is gone and he is feeling just fine now.

Aside from that... not much else is new. We got to go to the Shelbyville Horse Show... which is kind of a big thing in these parts. It was actually a lot of fun. Sticky and hot, but still fun. Milo loved the horses and tractor that combed the field. All in all, it was a great evening.

OH and shoes. Milo has such big, wide, fat feet that we struggle to find shoes for him. And the shoes that fit a week ago... no longer fit. I have a feeling over the course of Milo's first 18 years... I'll be spending a small fortune on shoes. Ugh. That's why I will be buying them on consignment!

OK. That's all I've got for today. :D
