My Poor Baby Is Sick.

Welcome to Manic Mommy Monday hosted by Heather from 2 Sleeping Babies and Tara from Crunchier by the Day! Every week every once in a while I link up blog posts that are updates about us and what is going on in our lives.

The Gnome is sick. 

He’s got a horrific cough and all kinds of gross drainage. He’s handling it like a champ though, except for at night. He’s having a really rough time sleeping. We haven’t found a doctor here yet (his first appointment with the pediatrician we want is October 30th) so we’re trying to just ride it out.

He’s also teething. 

Yay two-year molars. Not.

I am 11 weeks and 2 days pregnant. 

Isn’t the all day sickness supposed to be going away by now? Ughhh. On one hand, I am thrilled because it means I am still pregnant. On the other hand, “omggggg I’m dying.”

It’s not all whining and complaining over here today though!

The Gnome pooped in the potty again today!

This is a huge deal, even though he is pee-trained and has been in undies full-time since the beginning of August, he didn’t actually poop in the potty until we moved in here on October 3rd. It’s still hit or miss but it’s an improvement and I’ll take it!

I contributed for our first ever Bountiful Basket today. I wanted to do it in Texas so bad but our produce was cheap enough that it didn’t make sense. The location closest to us was sold out but I managed to get one from another location that isn’t too far away. I’m hoping I get some fun stuff – because all I seem to be able to eat lately is raw fruits, raw veggies, and ice cream.

I’m going to crawl back into my hole on the couch watching Elmo with my sick boy now.
