Chest infection

Poor baby boy, he's not got a chest infection. His temperature keeps spiking up to 39+, he's on antibiotics. He keeps coughing, snotty, drowsy, not eating properly etc. It took 4 days for the doctors to listen and believe he wasn't well.

Hopefully he'll be better soon but it means all his activities are cancelled until he's feeling better.

My boys

Jonathan's ill AGAIN. He has conjunctivitis and a virus. Which means no slimming world and no baby clubs this week including swimming.

Took Buddy out for an our long walk today all over the cow field and then through CCA fields. We had great fun meeting lots of people and dogs. He's now asleep which I will be doing quite early tonight

Swimming

Went with Jo Gundersen to aqua aerobics last night. I really enjoyed it, got a good workout and had fun at the same time I think it's going to be something I am going to continue with.

Taking Jonathan to his swimming lesson today. It's his second lesson and I'm really looking forward to it.

I'm really enjoying the pool at the moment hopefully we'll soon get our own pool in Cullompton

Tendinitus

I have got tendinitis in my right wrist. It means my tendons are inflamed and it really hurts. I've got to try and rest it which means no playing minesweeper :(
I'm taking a cocktail of ibuprofen and paracetamol to help with the pain but it's difficult to rest when Jonathan is wanting to be picked up a lot still.

Birthday Boy

Jonathan was one on Thursday! I can't believe how fast this year has gone. We had a party on the Island for him and he got very spoilt.

He was such a good boy and only got a bit upset when Buddy got too excited. We then had a second party on Saturday when we got home for his Devon friends although only 2 babies turned up as there seems to be a lot of bugs going around. He still had fun eating his chocolate cake though and making a fine mess!

Poor Little man

Our poor baby boy has been suffering this past week. We think he has slapped cheek, he's got the rash on his tummy now so hopefully it'll clear up soon. He woke up at 5.30am and was really screaming, crying and wriggling I think his ears were hurting again or his rash was driving him crazy, I gave him some calpol in the hope that it would help but he just wouldn't calm down, he ended up sharing our bed until he got up at 7am. He fell asleep with his head under my chin so I couldn't move until he got up. Poor little man

Sing and sign

Jonathan is very interested in his sing and sign dvd. Maybe I should see if there is a class around near here to take him to.

I've been on a bit of a cleaning spree today, I've done the hoovering, the sweeping and washing the bath mats. I've also been doing some studying, I think I deserve a lie in in the morning.

Poorly baby boy

No wonder Jonathan has been clingy and difficult the last few days it seems he has slapped cheek illness. Hopefully it won't last much longer as the rash on his face as appeared which means it's nearly over and he's no longer infectious.

Had to change our plans for Valentines day today because the Farringford Hotel have changed their menu and it is now £50pp, stuff that!! So I've booked us into another restaurant for the same time which has got a yummy set menu especially for Valentine's day.
