Sick Time

Considering Nicholas has been in a day care center full time since he was 3 months old, I think it's pretty awesome that he didn't get sick until just after he turned 10 months old. I was just mentioning to a co worker how lucky we've been when the day care called me that afternoon (Friday) to tell me he wasn't himself. Nick picked him up and took him to the doctor. He had a fever a little over 100 and it turns out he had an ear infection. He'll be on amoxicillin for 10 days, 3 times a day. He doesn't mind taking it at all, and honestly, this kid is a champ because he seems to be handling it really well. We went to Connecticut to see my friend Jessie and other then being a little cranky when he wanted food, he was his usual happy self. The last few days, in pictures:

Socks, his favorite

He stood on his own for quite awhile - Nick says a few minutes, I thought it was about 30 seconds. But I totally cried. :)

Sunday morning before visiting Jessie, and right before he ripped out some of my hair and wiped boogs all over me. Suh-weet!

Hanging out in the car waiting for Jessie

He loved the food court, looking around at everyone. A little girl also patted him on the head and an older man told us he was beautiful and that both he and Jesus loved him. He was very sweet!

Hey buns!

Are you lookin at my buns?
