Catch Up Catch Up Catch Up

OK, so I'm really slacking, but I have barely been on the computer. TJ was rained out 2 days last week and had to take another day off because the brakes in our Jeep went out on his way to work. So my week was all funky.

This is how Tristan fell asleep in the car today. He's starting to like to have a blanket and I guess he likes it to be dark for his naps lol

Just like the shirt says....Mommy's Little Monster :)

Ok I know I went and missed a post again. But I had a sick little boy on my hands. He was still running a temp yesterday morning so I called and got an appt with the doctor. The doctor thinks he caught something from Chuck E Cheese. So it was just a matter of waiting it out. He still had a temp of 100.4 going to bed last night, but he actually slept pretty well, only getting up at 1 and then 5am. Fri night had been horrible, I only got about 3 1/2 hrs of broken sleep, he would only sleep if I held him. So I was much happier last night with him sleeping in his crib. I haven't taken his temp since before bed last night, but I can just tell the temp went away, at least for the most part, just by feeling his little head. He was burning up these last couple days, and now he actually feels "cool". My poor little guy!
OK well, I forget if I mentioned this on Thurs, but he finally rolled over!!! Yay!! Ever since he started sleeping in his crib he has slept on his belly. I could never get him to sleep on his back for more than a couple minutes. I went to get him out of his crib in the morning there he was on his back smiling up at me :)

It looks like Ville found Tristan's Bumbo, I've caught him sitting in it a couple times now......

So Tristan's appt today turned into his 4 mth well child check. He got his shots and all and now he's sick :( I hate this. I actually just got off the phone with the doctor's office. His temp is up to 101.3 at 10:00 after having some tylenol at 8:30. He's not showing any other signs of sickness or cold. Before his shots he did have a small temp it was I think 100.4 rectally. At 8:30 when I took it, it was 100.8. My thermometer is one of the 1 second ones that go in the ear. Now the doctor did tell me that for his eight I could give him .8ml of tylenol and up to this point I had been giving him .4ml. If the temp is about the same come morning I'm going to call and get him an appt. She said its hard for her to think the temp would only be from the shots since he had a slight one before the shots. But he hasn't been doing anything out of the ordinary to make me think there would be anything wrong. God I hope I didn't miss something. Now I'm scrutinizing every little thing. he went 5 hrs between bottles this morning, but that's normal for his sleep time. He's coughed a couple times today, but maybe 2 or 3 and it's not a raspy cough, almost sounds fake and it wasn't coughing spells. Well I have a feeling I'm not going to be getting very much sleep tonight.
Here's a pic, I snapped this of him before we went to bed last night.

So Tristan didn't have his 4 mth check up yesterday. I thought the appt was for 4:00 but when I got there they said it was 1:40 :( I have some issues with the woman I talked to at the front desk. After working in medical offices for the past 5-6 yrs before I had Tristan I was less than impressed with her and her huffing and puffing. So I have a phone call into the office manager who was off on vacation until next Mon. The woman wouldn't reschedule Tristan until 10/7 and said there wasn't anything else she could do. That was his next available. Well the amazing thing is I called in today and got an appt for....wait for it.......tomorrow at 11am. He actually had 2 openings for tomorrow. GRRRR I hope that girl's there tomorrow so she can see me checking in to see Dr Schucker. It won't be his actually 4 mth check with shots, that's still scheduled for 10/7, but I want to talk to him about Tristan's eating. Which I told that woman, but was she at all helpful...of course not. OK so enough venting about the rude obnoxious office worker. I swear if I didn't like the doctor so much I would be changing offices.

Ok so I actually have a ton of pics from today. We went to Chuck E Cheese for our friend's daughter's 3rd bday. Tristan was wide eyed the whole time checking out all the sites. Luckily it was pretty dead. I must say mid week during the day is the absolute best time to go to Chuck E Cheese.

And here's a pic of his girlfriend Lily knawing on some pizza

Well this afternoon at 4 I take Tristan for his 4 month appt with the doctor. i can't wait to get his latest stats and get the go ahead to start him on solids, which I'm sure the doc will give me. But I know he's up for some more shots, and I felt so bad after the last ones. Daddy was there to help comfort him, but of course TJ will be at work this time. So it'll be all me. I swear if he cries like last time, I will too. I've been feeling weapy lately and something like that, I doubt I'll be able to stop the tears.
Well for today's picture I have one of my newest obsession. Kettle Cooked Salt and vinegar...Yummy! I could sit and eat an entire bag in one sitting if I didn't stop myself.

Ok I know in this picture he;s out of focus, but I was surprised I even got to snap it, normally he stops doing the things I want to take a picture of before I can snap one. I've really been trying to give him more floor time. So I tried his bumbo with toys in front of him. I was on the computer and when I looked over he wasn't interested in his toys at all, he was amazed by his feet.......
