Crazy about LOVE DAY!

Yesterday was so crazy!  Not even kidding you!  I honestly can't even remember half the things that happened because there was just so much!  OK, let me start at the first I guess.  Carter is still pretty sick :(  After feeding him yesterday morning, he went back to sleep.  When he woke up, he threw up all over me when I was taking him in his room to get dressed.  We're not talking "spit up" here...we're talking Exorcist style, (green and everything) projectile vomiting all over me.  I yell at John to come in and grab him so I can clean us both off.  I throw baby in the tub and then I get in.  I put Carter in a onesie and lay him on the bed with John.  He has been sleeping a lot since he has been sick so I just let him go back to sleep.  I am a procrastinator...putting John's gift off to the last minute, of course.  I wanted to get him a vintage Batman toy from an antique store but, alas, neither of the stores I went to had any such toy :( Boo!  So I got him this instead...

A new hopper for his paintball gun.  He has needed one for a long time and I decided it was a good gift :)  He told me my gift is in the mail but he won't tell me what it is so now I just wait...I'm no good at waiting...

So after I gave John his gift, I took Carter in to get him dressed.  Last week, during my Old Navy splurge, I got him an adorable Valentines outfit, pictured here...

"Little heart breaker".  I think he is ;)

Side note...while I was getting Carter ready...this guy was staring at me through the window!!!  Can you see him?

No more than 20 minutes later, he throws up AGAIN!!!  All over his adorable outfit. NOT TO MENTION all over my bed :(  I was not having a good morning (yes, I said "morning".  It was no later than 11 at this point).  I'm really getting worried now.  After he threw up, he just kept dry heaving and coughing.  I decided it was time to call the doctor again.  My doctor was booked solid yesterday so I got an appointment with another Pediatrician at 1:10.  I had already taken him to the doctor on Friday but he said there wasn't much I could do other than just wait it out.  When we got there yesterday, the first thing they did was weigh him...he was down 8 ounces since Friday!  Not good!  Also, he had a lot of wheezing in his lungs so she hooked him up to a breathing machine.  Here's my little man in the doctor's office

This picture was taken with my phone so it's suck-ola.  Don't ask me what is with the color, because I have no idea.  He actually did really well with the mask.  He squirmed at first and then he calmed down and just breathed in the medicine.  They sent us home with a rental and our very own attachments...woot!

After the doc, I headed to work.  I made super fun Valentines for my Kindergarteners and co-workers.  Behold my craftiness

I also made cupcakes for my co-workers but that didn't happen until last night so they are getting Valentine treats a day late...I'm sure they won't mind ;)

Way funny story from work yesterday:  So my friend, Aiko, made little valentines for the kiddos as well.  She got up in front of them and asked, "What day is it today?"  they all yell back "Valen-times Day!!!!".  Aiko:  "That's right, and what do we do on Valentines Day?"  Adorable, innocent, sweet little girl:  "We make love!!!"  Me and my friend Marlyn bust up laughing!  I couldn't even hold it in...it was just too perfect!  I ♥ my job...seriously!  Who can say they have amazing things like that happen almost every day?  That's right...not many.

When I got home, I took John dinner at work.  I do this every Monday and I really enjoy it.  I used to do it every night but since we've been working on the house, I only get to do it on Mondays so I take advantage of it.  When I got home, Carter was having a pretty hard time breathing so I gave him another treatment, sucked out his boogies, fed him, jammied him and put him to bed.  Poor baby was just so tired.  That was about 9.  After he was asleep, I got a lot done.  I made the cupcakes.  Here are the ones I made special for John :)

Aww...how presh!  Then I worked on some blocks I am making for a very dear friend's baby who is due this month!  (I will upload pictures of them when they're done...I'm very excited at how they look so far).  Then around 12:30, Carter starts screaming.  I can hear him through the monitor and he sounds super congested.  I went and got him out, changed his diaper, sucked out his boogies and tried to rock him back to sleep but he was just too congested. 

 His face says it all, I think :(
By this time, I had to go get John from work.  I had to wake up my mother in law to take Carter so I could leave.  When we got home, they were in the rocking chair and he was half asleep.  I decided to give him another breathing treatment.  John's first time doing it:

Carter is honestly so content when we do the treatments.  He just sits there with his mouth wide open and just talks.  I have a video of him...maybe I'll upload it if it doesn't take 8 years like it usually does.  Here's another picture of him with his fish face ;)

After his treatment, we sucked out the boogies again, fed him and then he was happy and content :)

Ha ha, I took this upside down picture of him before he went back to sleep.  Mind you, this was at like 2:30 in the morning.  Well, I guess that concludes the insanely crazy day I had yesterday.  Surprisingly, I wouldn't consider it a "bad" day.  All in all, I enjoyed it and I'm glad my little monster is starting to feel better :)
