I’m like 99% sure B has the flu. I keep wavering between bringing him into the pedi or just letting it ride out. I don’t feel like they can do anything but it’s killing me that we are on day 5 and he’s had a fever pretty much almost every day and the coughing. So. Much. Coughing. It was really perfect timing he had winter break this week because he would have missed the entire week anyway.

Another slow day at work today. I finally told my boss and his #2 about my pregnancy this morning. There's a new guy starting in a couple weeks and I know they've been discussing workload changes in our group. As much as I don't want it, if I was my boss, I'd give the new guy my programs and give me something new. But I'll be gone for a big chunk of time so I'm not sure what their plan will be. Figured it was better to tell them now before they had it set in stone. Externally they were both smiling and happy and saying congrats but I'm sure inside they were thinking oh shit! lol

waitwhat H's flu lasted 8 days. His fever finally started getting better when I'd give him tylenol & ibuprofen at the same time every 6 hours. Do you want the dosage chart for weight to make sure you're giving him enough? It's usually a little more than what the bottle says.

waitwhat Forgot to say that I'd take him to the pedi. Obviously if it is the flu, they can't do anything. But they could at least rule out and EI or strep.

I have a magnetic thing on my fridge but I think it’s from the bottle. Maybe I’m not giving him enough.

I really am not 100% certain what he weighs currently.

I really am not 100% certain what he weighs currently. Do you have a scale at home? If so, give me his weight and I'll provide you the dosage. I'll give you the formula too, in case you'd like to check my math.

It’s a boy! I’m still kind of in shock. I was so convinced it was a girl this time since this pg has been so different. I’m happy everything looks healthy and little man is growing on track.

We tried no diapers this morning.
Diaper is back on. For a good while I think.

We've closed and celebrated with some pretty spectacular cuban sandwiches. Now we're heading to OUR house to look at what we may want to paint this week and come up with our game plan.

Hi All!
I've been MIA the last couple of days. I've been using all my free time (AKA, work hours) looking into a trip to Denver this summer. I think I am going to do it for our anniversary and surprise MH with the trip. I'm mostly just waiting to hear back from my parents/ILs about them watching the kids and dogs. Once I get that set I'll pull the trigger.
Still unsure what exact dates I want though. I was looking at sometime between 6/28 (Friday) and July 4th (Thursday). Our anniversary is the 2nd, so I for sure want to be there on that day. I'm going back and forth between leaving on Friday and coming back Wednesday, leaving Saturday and coming back Wednesday or Thursday or leaving Sunday and coming back Wednesday or Thursday. I feel like 4 full days might be too much. We won't have a car so we probably won't leave the city limits. Flights are cheaper on Sunday than Friday or Saturday, and coming back they're cheaper on Thursday than Wednesday.
I also want to get tickets to a baseball game. The Rockies are home the whole time we would be there. Evening games Friday & Saturday against the Dodgers, an afternoon game on Sunday against the Dodgers and evening games on Tuesday & Wednesday against the Astros.
I've been looking at Airbnb. I found a neighborhood that looks like a great place to stay and has a shit ton of breweries in walking distance of each other. So I'm hoping we can stay in that area.
So that's what I've been doing the past 2 days.
