doctor, doctor

Well, it was Bella's first trip to the doctor.

Super Dad was home last Thursday, (snow day, yes, you heard me, snow day, the middle of April) then home Friday sick. Then all weekend he was sick, it was great fun. Booger bombs everywhere. (for those who don't know what a booger bomb is; a wadded up kleenex so wet with snot it sticks to your foot if you step on it, i.e. a "bomb") Well, then he stayed home sick Monday too. And of course Bella had gotten considerably more and more stuffed up. So, mom checked her temp, and a low grade fever had emerged. Thanks dad.

I would have just let her heal on her own, but the fever is my line I do not pass. I will treat all kinds of dreaded kukamunga sickness with vitamins, herbs, rest, chants, etc. until a fever presents, then I give in to those who are degreed in that sort of thing.
Doc said she's fine (of course her fever had subsided by the time we got to the office) and she is just congested and a lot of drainage (which explains her upchuck Monday morning) so Benedryl if it gets to where she can't handle the drainage. So far I have not had to use it. More boob juice for Bella! (studies show that increased breastfeeding during illness heals babies faster!)

You'd be interested to know that our little princess is now 11 lb.
I KNOW! Where did my little one go?

Another milestone... the onesies she was wearing in the hospital... now TOO SMALL!! I had to move some of the 3-6 month clothes over to her armoire/shelf from the spare closet last night.
Well, I guess its time to pack up some of the newborn clothes for the next baby!

Then earlier, we're in front of the computer.. Bella's happy, smiling of course, then a little fussy, so I started singing the theme song to Sesame Street, and she stopped being fussy and started smiling, almost laughing! It was so neat to know someone likes my singing! See, I told you all I could sing well.

other than that... going well!

I hung some laundry on the line... (Bella helped by holding a clothespin) working on my side job (I make scrapbooks for people, they pay me... its great!)

The weather is supposed to be great today, I think Bella and I may go for a walk. My mom is supposed to get my stroller for me, I CAN'T WAIT!! Then we can go for walks ALL THE TIME!

well, back to work. I've got Bella in the Moby and its so nice. May I suggest to all pregnant women and already mom's with kids less than 45 lbs. BUY A MOBY! BUY A MOBY! BUY A MOBY!!
