Our First Fever Rash

Poor Stephen got a little virus this week. He was sent home from daycare on Tuesday because he was running fever and tugging at his ears. Well we went to the doctor and they said his ears were perfect but his throat was a little red. So it was just a virus and it needed to run its course. Nana kept him on Wednesday since he couldn't go back to daycare until his fever broke for 24 hours. I got off work at noon and my mom met up with me so we could have lunch, I could get Stephen and keep addy for a little while. You can imagine my reaction when we stopped at a park to eat and took off his outfit to find him covered from head to toe (literally, the top of his head to the bottom of his feet!!) in little red dots!! I called and left the nurse a message and then called "Dr. Lydia". I call Lydia every time something happens to Stephen. When he coughs a little funny I can her. Anyway, she said this is pretty normal with a virus. And should go away in a few days. Whew!! My kid doesn't have measles!! The nurse later called back and confirmed when Lydia had said. 
              Little red dots..all over!!

     Poor guy!! It doesn't even seem to
                bother him though!!

                         All over!!

           Even on his little bottom!!

So, now they are almost all gone (YAY!!) and his fever has been gone for about 36 hours now! I think we finally kicked whatever he had!!

4 months old


He is 4 months old! I can't believe how fast the time has gone by! He love standing up while holding your hands. We have not started solid foods yet. Maybe in a few weeks. He loves play time with Daddy, but still doesn't like to go to sleep for him. He is successfully sleeping in his own bed now. He wakes up between 1-2am and again at 5am. He is beginning to blow spit bubbles and is also becoming quite vocal! Peek-a-boo is very funny right now. He still lights up when Mommy picks him up from daycare! He fits in most 6 month outfits, but has a little room to grow. 
He has discovered his feet and is constantly trying to grab them or touch his face with them. 

             Asleep in his own bed!

We are loving getting to know this little mans personality! He astonishes us almost everyday with a new skill or noise!

First Haircut!!

Well, his hair is getting kind of crazy! Some is short, some is long and some is just falling out!! So, I cut it all off. Well, I just cut all of it the same length. Which is a "3" with the clippers. It went pretty well. Stephen wasn't scared of the clippers or anything. He did wiggle a little, but I expected that! He is a mover!!! 

                            Before

              Look at that mess of hair!! 

     I think he may be unsure about this!

And then we got the trimmers after him.
                     Here we go!!

Look at all that hair!! I know grown people that don't lose that much hair when they get a haircut!! 

                 And now he is bald!!
It's really not as short as it looks here..
     I think he is happy with his at home
                Mommy-done haircut!

I think it looks much better! And now maybe it will start to grow more evenly!!
