Finally! Okay okay I know that it has been forever, but finally we've got things working and Conner's not sick! To start off with my sweet loving husband spoiled me this Valentine's! The weekend before Valentine's we got to go to the Couer d'Alene Resort! I was super excited because he was leaving his phone calls with a lady in the office, and Conner was staying with the Grandmas, so it was like we both got the weekend off! : ) We headed down there on Saturday and of course did a little shopping and then caught a movie since we never get to do that anymore. After the movie we got to have a super nice yummy dinner at the restaurant in the resort! It was serious like the best steak I have ever had! Jess spoiled himself with some King Crab Legs! : ) We had the coolest room too! It had a lake front view and a fireplace a curtains that opened and closed with a remote! :) We made our way back to Moses Lake after a yummy breakfast and of course a quick stop at Cabela's! We missed Conner so much. It was the first time that we had ever left him over night, but of course he survived! He spent Saturday and Saturday night with Grammy Walters, and Sunday with Grandma Moberg! He didn't even realize that we had left. That Sunday night we made our way back home to Tri-Cities. Monday morning Conner and I got up with Jess to give him a ride to work because the car was at his office, and once we got there Conner threw up all over himself! It was so sad! By the time we finally got home he had thrown up 2 more times everywhere! I guess that's what we get when we go and enjoy a weekend away. He was sick last month too, but nothing like this! It lasted all week and it only got worse after Monday. He had diarrhea all week! He never had an appetit, his poor little bum was so sore, and he drank so much stinkin Pedialyte! By Friday I was a little concerned because he still had diarrhea and we all had had very little sleep. I didn't think that it was very healthy to have diarrhea like that when your still so small, so I tired to get into a Doctor, but we haven't seen one here in Tri-Cities yet so that didn't work. I could have taken him to a clinic here in town, but last month when I did that I had a really bad experience. I ended up on going up to Moses Lake on Friday and taking him to my Mom's old work. They are so great there, and I knew that they would take good care of him there. We went in and they took a stool sample to send to the lab to see if he had bacteria or anything that could be causing him to have a bad stomach, but 2 days later everything came back normal. I was kind of frustrated, because he wasn't acting like himself, and I just wanted to know what was wrong with the poor little guy. Anyways, he ended up getting 100% better by the next couple of days, so hopefully that won't be happening again ever!
We did have our ultrasound on Valentine's Day and my sweet mother came over to help me with Conner. It was so fun to see the little guy, yes guy. It is for sure a BOY! We are so so so excited! Conner and him will be 18 months apart, and it will be so much fun to watch them play and grow together. Everything looks good still, so 3 more months and this little guy will grace us with his presence! We still are having name problems, so if you guys have any suggestions please let us know. We need any help that we can get! : )
More crazy news, our little guy has moulers! : ) Moulers! I couldn't believe it! One day we were on the couch saying bye to Jess before he went to work and I just happened to look over and see two huge white things in the back of Conners mouth on the his bottom jaw! I totally freaked out because I had no idea when those popped up! Sure enough after fully looking and feeling we came to the realization that he's getting big way to fast! His top ones just broke through. What a champ though because he wasn't showing any signs of huge teeth busting through his gums. Jess joked that in celebration of Conner's new moulers we were going to have steak for dinner! ; )
Here are just some random pictures from the weeks that have past!
It's so funny. The weather here right now is really nice and it's like Conner has totally discovered the outside all of a sudden! All he wants to do is go outside. All week we spent atleast an hour or two outside playing in the grass, throwing the football around, riding in his wagon, and going on walks. As soon as he's done eatting breakfast he runs and gets his shoes and brings them to me. I just set them aside just trying to act like I don't know what's going on, but then he just cries and gives them back to me. This kid is so stinkin smart there is no fooling him! After he gets his shoes on he even runs and gets his coat all by himself. He just cracks me up!
During one of our days outside he fell on the sidewalk and got his first boo boo outside. If you look right above his right eye brow he got a little scrap. His face looks sad though because we came inside not because of his boo boo. He does throw a massive fit when we come inside.
