Feeling much better
Posted by Missy Roberts at 1:31 PM About Jake
So Jacob has been a good boy about taking his medicine. He actually likes it. His little mouth opens up when he sees the dropper come near his mouth. Last week we pretty much took it easy, stayed around the house not doing too much. By the weekend he was feeling a lot better and his runny nose had cleared up totally by Saturday.
Friday night I went to Auntie Vanessa's Bachelorette Party. Daddy and Jacob hung out that night. I think daddy was pretty worn out by the end of the night because when I got home, he didn't even move when I got into bed. He was pooped! Jacob spent the whole day on Saturday with Nani. We went to a UCLA football game and were gone the whole day. the traffic was terribe coming home. It took us 2 hours from the time we left the stadium to the time we walked into the door. I was so happy to see my baby. I missed him so much.
Sunday morning daddy woke up with Jacob at his lovely 6am wake up time and I actually slept in until almost 8! When I went downstairs daddy was giving Jacob his breakfast already...what a great daddy! Later that morning we met the Kollen's at Irvine Spectrum for breakfast. We had a great time. Of course as soon as our food arrived, Jacob decided to throw a fit, so we had to eat in shifts. After breakfast we walked around a little bit and got Jacob some new shoes (again). The ones he had he could NOT walk in at all. they made him very clumsy. So we got some that are easy to get on and off and that he could walk in more easily. This child is spoiled. But daddy is lucky he is not a girl, becasue boy oh boy did they have some cute shoes for little girls. I think I would have bought about 10 pair instead of the one. Really, there is so much variety of girl clothes and accessories out there. I realize it's for girls and girls are "cuter" but seriously, they could have a little more variety for boys...anyway... Afterward we went to the Kollen's new house which is absolutely beautiful! The boys spent some time playing there and then we went to the park near their house. Jacob had a ball playing in the dirt (mulch) there. Unfortunately we had to leave just as they were really starting to have some fun because we were meeting Grandma and Grandpa for dinner. So off we went. We met up with Grandma and Grandpa at an Italian restaurant. They wanted to see Jacob take a few steps, but of couse he didn't, there was an audience and he did't feel like showing off.
This morning when we woke up I realized that I left Jacob's medicine out all night (it's supposed to be refrigerated!). So off we went to the pharmacy when they opened so that I could get some more med. The pharmasist said that it was okay since it's cool at night anyway. Gosh I hope it's okay. I was hesitant about letting him take it but she kept assuring me that it was fine, there was no need for new medicaton. I think she could see the doubt in my eyes, so she said several times, it's fine for him to take, just make sure from now on that you put it in the fridge! Well no duh, I've already learned my lesson. I was obviously tired last night and got distracted after giving him his medicine. I will now triple check to make sure that it's in the fridge after I give it to him. Bad mommy!
So now Jacob is taking a nap and I'm on the computer instead of cleaning something around the house...hey it's Veteran's Day...it's a holiday. Okay, until next time...mommy and daddy love you!
