I would like something to eat

Today is one of those days that I had a stocked pantry and fridge with EVERYTHING in it and a personal chef to make me anything that might sound good. Oh and that chef can make dinner the rest of the week too. That would be great. At this point I just wish something in my house sounded good to eat.

My Sick Little Monkey

(He was so sick, he passed out on my chest. That hasn't happened since he was a newborn.)

Let me be honest, this week has sucked. Maddux came down sick on Sunday and is still waging the battle. During sacrament meeting on Sunday he was not a happy camper (I had no idea at the time that he was running a fever. I am a horrible mom.) and Cesar took him out into the hall until the end of the meeting. I myself had been feeling nauseous the entire meeting, so we went home for Maddux and I to nap. When Maddux woke up, I realized his skin was so hot it felt like it was burning mine. I didn't take his temperature because all of our thermometers take at least a minute to read, so I gave him some Tylenol and called it good. To say the least he didn't sleep at all and neither did we. So Monday morning, I went to Walgreen's and purchased a fancy $50 thermometer. Took that boys temperature when we got home... 103.6! And his skin felt cooler than yesterday. I about died. We went to the doctor and they gave us some antibiotics but to be honest I don't think it's doing much for him. So for now we are just taking it as it comes. I came down with whatever he has on Wednesday... yippee a fever, runny nose and morning sickness!

Maddux at Dinner

Maddux has starting blowing raspberries these days and when we went out to dinner for my birthday he just kept them coming non-stop. But when I got my camera out he stopped and just looked at me like nothing was going on. So nothing is really going on in this video, he just looks cute.
Enjoy!

My Birthday and Maddux

Maddux is 7 months old today. Time is just flying by! Next thing you know he will be 1! I can't wait to see him grow. I especially can't wait till he is talking and I can hear what is on the cute mind of his!
Saturday was my birthday and I turned 23. I forgot that I was 22 and until my mother mentioned my soon to be age days before my birthday, I thought I was turning 22. Ha ha! Cesar made sure I had a wonderful day. We went to Idaho Falls early in the morning and I got swept away with the girls (Esther, Patty and her two girls, Shantall and Samantha) to Macys (Maddux stayed with the boys). I had a great time shopping and came home to cake and candles.

After we left Cesar's parents house, we went to the Idaho Falls zoo with my sisters and then out for Reed's Dairy ice cream. If you haven't tired it, you must! We then finished the day by going out to dinner. I absolutely loved it!
