May Day

Luke is starting his second month of daycare today. He seems to really like it - he smiles as soon as he sees his "teacher" and she starts talking to him. That makes me feel better about leaving him there. We almost survived the first month without an unscheduled trip to the pediatrician. On Tuesday, Luke's teacher calls me and tells me that he is crying uncontrollably every time that they put him down, he isn't eating well, he has a slight fever and he had blood in his stool. Of course I am freaking out, so I skip my afternoon meeting and take him to the pediatrician. When I get to daycare to pick him up, he was sleeping soundly (not crying uncontrollably) and as soon as he woke up as I was putting him into his car seat, he is smiling and laughing. Immediately, I am thinking that he isn't sick but since he has had a cold for about 4 weeks that I will take him anyway. Long story short, we get to the doctor and he tells me that basically it is just a cold and nothing to worry about and he will be fine. I'm sure he thinks I am a neurotic first time mom, but I guess it was better to be safe than sorry, right?

We leave for Florida on Saturday. I'm nervous about the flight, but it will be nice to enjoy some sunshine. I'll have lots of pictures to post when we get back. In the meantime, here are a few we have taken recently.



He is getting so good with being on his tummy. I think he almost likes it now.
