I love the smell of clean baby...

So I think I can safely say that my baby is sick. He is congested, and just not feeling 100%. All day today he has seemed about 5 minutes away from a nap, even if he just woke up from one. And his fuse is really quick- take one second too long on getting his bottle ready and we are in for a baby meltdown of massive proportions. But a nice warm bubble bath, some fuzzy pj's, and a warm bottle and he has retired for the evening. I rocked him a little longer than normal tonight, stroking his soft little cheek and stroking his hair. Is there anything better than a freshly washed baby? I don't think so.

This entire day has been trying to say the least- I am tired and fighting off another sinus infection too- and we can't both whine all day long to each other. So I have to suck it up and be the mommy...it's in the job description after all. I don't remember actually signing the contract, but I was on a lot of vicotin in the hospital so maybe they slipped it in with the birth certificate paperwork.

On a good note- our playgroup went really well yesterday! The kids and mommies had a great time! And we are doing it again next week- which should be extra fun because my online buddy is coming to stay with us for a couple of days. Her daughter is just a few days younger than Jackson, and we have pretty much already decided they will get married. LOL I hope, hope, hope that we are feeling better by then because this baby slumber party has been in the works for months now.

Well, I am off to make dinner and chug a carton of OJ.
