Well, since my sister has decided to deactivate her facebook, I've been told I need to start utilizing my blog again. My husband also criticizes me for reading blogs all the time and never posting in mine :)
I do have quite a bit to catch up on. My last post was November 13 and Andrew turned one on the 17th. I've got pictures from his birthday, Christmas(es), Thanksgiving, family pictures and first haircut to post :/ I'll get caught up on those in the coming weeks.
I have been stuck in the sick house for the past seven days. Andrew started running a fever last Sunday and eventually, we got the diagnosis of RSV (see pitiful-ness above). Since he isn't a baby anymore, this diagnosis isn't as serious as it could be, although, it was rough on the little guy. He had to stay home all week and got plenty of rest. The RSV is really just a really bad cold. He had respiratory issues, fever, snotty nose and ear drainage - and of course, no appetite.

Brian and I switched out staying home all week and eventually Brian got sick too. So I had two pitiful babies at home this weekend. Andrew is back at daycare this morning. He had his 15 month check up before daycare and is doing well. He is in the .9% for his length and 2% for his weight. He did lose almost a pound this week because of his illness. And his head circumference was 25%. He got two vaccinations and took them like a champ.
Watching Cars 2 while at home sick. He is addicted to this movie!
Overall he is a healthy little booger and a growing boy! He really is doing something new all the time. Right now, he likes to mimic everything that we are doing. He says a few words: hi, bye, uh oh, ball, dada and mama (although he uses this word whenever he wants something, not in actual context). He has learned how to shake his head 'no', which is funny. And is always "talking" to us.
This is such a fun age - and I know I've said that at every age so far but he really is the light of our days. Even when he is sick, he still has a great personality and is just plain fun to be with.
Here is a video of him pointing out the birds and showing off some sign language. Sorry you have to look sideways. I haven't figured out how to change the direction yet. :(
We had a lazy weekend, obviously with the sickness going on, and we have a non-eventful week, which I'm thankful for. My sister is coming in on Friday so we are looking forward to that. Oh, and I got a new phone so hopefully (?) I can post some great pics and videos on here.
