Feeling Yucky...

This week Cohen had Strep Throat for the first time. He started acting sick on Monday, and we took him to the Dr. on Tuesday. At the Dr. office, they showed me the back of his throat. It was covered with white blisters. It hurt him so bad to swallow. He would hollow out his throat and let his spit pool in his mouth. When it was totally full, he would open his mouth and let it dribble down the front of his shirt. Marshall and I had such a hard time getting him to swallow his medicine, his anti-biotic and even water. This photo above is of him holding a drink of water in his mouth. At the time of the photo it had been there for over 5 minutes. He was so miserable, that it actually seemed he was getting worse as the days went on. I called the Dr. several times, and they assured me that he would eventually get better. It was a LONG 72 hours, but on Friday he started drinking and even eating again. I can only hope that this never happens again. We are sorry buddy...We love you.

My New Do...

Wednesday morning, I got the itch to do something different with my hair. It had been far too long since I did anything creative with it. So, I called Sherstine to see if she had an available appointment--and she did.

When she answered the phone I said, "I want to chop my hair and go blond!!" She paused for a moment, and said, "OK, how short and how blond?" After talking me off the ledge, we decided on a medium length cut, and some caramel and blond streaks. It turned out just like I had hoped. She is good!! I love my new hair!!

It's About BLEEPIN' Time!!!

I am the laziest blogger EVER!! I hate that it has almost been a month since I posted. The worst part is that I don't really have a good excuse.

Many things have happened in the month of May. First, Marshall's brother came to live with us.

And moved out two weeks later! Cohen is really going to miss his Uncle Cody!!

Second, I have also spent a lot of my time at the gym. I go almost every weekday, in hopes to shed those last few pounds of baby weight. :)

Also, we had a great a fun filled Memorial day! It started out with a "Backyard Breakfast" with our neighbors. It was so fun and some great food.

Next, we went to the "Kart Kountry" in Shepherdsville, KY.

It was so much fun. The track was really long and the carts were really fast. Marshall and I took turns riding with Cohen. He loved and hated it all at once.

After the cart rides, we came home and had a pool party with the Watson's and the Maxfield's.

Finally to top off the day, we had a BBQ at the Maxfield's House!! It was great food and some seriously good Brownies and Birthday Cake. MMMMMmmmm...

Cohen had fun playing with Liv on the Maxfield's stairs!
