Halloween Pictures


Tiggers like to pounce

Well even though he wasn't feeling good we still put the costume on him for a bit and took some photos. (Can't tell from this photo) After about ten minutes he was not digging being in the hood outfit. So I took some photos of him and even upload a photo from the other day of him eating.

Getting Better

Well Gavin's fever has come down, but he is still cranky. Hardly slept at all last night, keeping the whole house up. At some point in the middle of the night I even got fed up with him wailing. It is good to have Heidi and I swap him off when we can't deal with the crying any more. I'm amazed at single mom's, cause I would have gone insane by now or been a horrible parent. But he's not a bad kid at all, just he's been sick and not sleeping well. Oh well Halloween is tonight and we're going to stick a costume on him. I'll grab a photo and throw it up on the site tomorrow.

Weekend of Sick

Well Gavin was sick all weekend with a fever, ranging from 101 to 103. We spent most of the weekend comforting him and trying to make life easier. Heidi went to the doctor on Saturday fearing that he might have another bladder infection but the test came back OK, he just had a viral infection, (if that could be a good thing). I also got sick and lost my voice, I feel like crap but haven't had a fever so I'm at work today. Heidi some how managed avoiding getting sick, guess the JuicePlus is working for her, might have to start taken them myself. Anyway they are home today, last time I talked to her she said his temperature was 99 degrees, so a lot better than all weekend.

Cheerios

Gavin has discovered that he likes to eat Cheerios, but he hasn't mastered the skill of getting them to his mouth. He can pick them up, but they somehow resist being eaten. They end up sticking to his face or falling to the floor. If we only had a dog then we wouldn't have to clean it up after every meal. The cats took interest at first, but after a sniff they didn't care so much. The most I could get Bristo (our cat) to do was bat them across the floor and under the furniture. Also Gavin is sitting in high chairs at restaurants, which really shows how quickly he is growing up. Well tomorrow we are taken him to Apple Festival in Bedford, should be fun.

First cold and some new teeth

Gavin got his first cold. On Tuesday night he started coughing and had a runny noise. That night was a long one since he couldn't sleep well, he kept waking up and Heidi got up like five times. She took a sick day for Wednesday just in case he was running a fever. He never did, but Wednesday night was a little rough. I ended up sleeping on the Living Room floor so I could get some sleep, since Gavin and Mom were in bed.

Anyway tonight we were using the nose sucking thingy to extract some boogies and I noticed that his top teeth are poking through his gums. I am suprise that his teeth are coming in so early. From what I had read it said that teeth could come in as last as 14 month and he has his in less than 9.
