Smoke Balls, Sick Baby, and Supportive Shopper

This weekend was kind of a hodge podge of activity for us. Saturday we needed to pick up a few things at Target and of course anytime Daddy comes shopping with us a few extra items end up in the cart. Yesterday it was smoke balls, snaps, and spinning eye balls. Ever since our stop at the fire works place in Georgia he has been obsessed with fireworks - as are my daughters.

Here is Kate dancing in the smoke from the smoke balls!

Saturday afternoon we went over to my Mom and John's house and went swimming. When we got there I noticed that Owen felt a little warm. I gave him some Tylenol and we ate and swam. As we were getting ready to leave, I felt him and he was warm again! My baby had a fever.

Here is Owen sleeping and miserable with a fever.
Thankfully the doctor gave me a prescription for an antibiotic when I brought him in last week. She said that his ears looked good that day but if he started running a fever to fill the prescription. So we filled it and when I got him home his temp was 101.3. Poor baby!

Sunday morning, I stayed home from church with Owen since he was still running a fever. Unfortunately, I needed to out and do a little shopping because we are headed to the beach next weekend and I still don't have a bathing suit. I hated leaving Owen when he was sick, but today was my last chance. So Savannah and I headed out for an afternoon of shopping. She was so supportive!!! She was saying, "oh here Mommy, this is beautiful! Try this one!" In all, I got a bathing suit, two shirts, a pair of flip flops, and a dress.

She even carried my bags!!! All I had to do was buy the girl a soft pretzel with cheese and she was great for me!! She is getting to be such a big girl!!!!

  2. It's like a stink bomb without the smell :) You light it and it starts smoking....in assorted colors I might add. The girls LOVED them!!! I was not impressed.
