Our Friday went well, despite DS having come down with a runny nose and cough. He doesn't see to be too bothered by it, which is good. I've still been working on the nose blowing, and he's made a teeny tiny bit of progress, so I guess that's something? He just doesn't seem really interested in it. The one thing he looooves is the nose frida. What a weirdo. He laughs every time we use it to suck out the snot. When he was sick as a baby, he used to hate it, so obviously something has changed!
It's another holiday weekend where we live...I swear this country has so many freaking holidays...it's ridiculous. Not sure what we're going to do with the extra day off. Now that I'm on modified bedrest, I'm thinking of hitting up our favorite Scandinavian restaurant for lingonberry waffles. DS loves those and it would be a nice treat after his cold. Yes...okay...I just made up my mind...we're doing it 😀😁

Morning! I need to get motivated to clean the house and start prepping food for DS's birthday party on Sunday. All I've done so far is a bit of decluttering and I finished his stat board.
Once DH gets home, I need to go finish food shopping for the party--my car is leaking power steering fluid again, so I'm going to wait and use his car.

Even though I only worked 2 days this week I'm ready for the weekend.
We're having some people out tomorrow for a BBQ. I'm excited mostly because I'm going to use them as my taste testers. My company is having our company picnic next week and there's a bake-off and I'm last years defending champ. I can't decided if I want to make maple bacon fudge or cookie dough cups (like peanut butter cups, but with cookie dough) and I need people to tell me which one will get me the blue ribbon for the 2nd year in a row.

My day in 3 letters: HFM. Waiting for dr appt this afternoon for baby. I hope he doesn't have it. DC has it in both infant and toddler rooms. So fx neither my boys (or I) get it!

This weekend will be the end of our trip and Sunday we'll be flying home. Tonight H and I are going out for dinner and drinks while my mom watches the kids (she's on vacation with us). I'm excited!!

Going to a birthday party for MIL/gender reveal for BIL and SIL's impending spawn. I have a bilateral ear infection. All week H was like "I had the same thing you had and I didn't feel that bad, you're not that sick, get over it," etc. BILATERAL EAR INFECTION. What am I, 9 months old? Steroids and antibiotics for me wheeeeeee. littlelion, we had HFM almost a year ago. HMU if LO ends up with it. We got through it pretty smoothly for her. When I got it, however...it was kind of rough. |

Alex does have HFM. He has no lesions in his mouth as of yet and no fever so he's pretty happy. fuzzylogic I keep hearing that! I sooo do not want to catch it. |

littlelion I'm so sorry. Hfm sucks. The girls and Dh managed to get it a few years ago. I wasn't aware adults could get it. Fx it doesn't get passed around.

littlelion sorry about the HFM. DS1 got it when I was pregnant with DS2, he didn't want to eat much or run around because his feet hurt but he didn't have many lesions at all. He did weirdly lose both of his big toe nails. Anyway, I never got it, and neither did H even though we've both never had it before, so hopefully you won't either.

littlelion, the chance of you getting it is pretty slim. Adults usually escape unscathed or with very few symptoms. I'm apparently special or some shit.  I'm glad the LO is doing so well! E had a pretty high fever but the lesions on her hands and feet didn't seem to bother her much. Grandma was kind enough to keep her here at home that week. I put bandaids all over my hands and feet and went to work and just didn't touch anyone or anything that wasn't mine!

littlelion Bummer about the HFM. I hope it is mild and that you guys get through it quickly! I hope nobody else in your family catches it. jubilantsquirrel Both of those options sound amazing, but I vote for the cookie dough cups! You know I am biased about cookie dough though...😀
