3 month fever.
>> March 3, 2010
Poor little guy. For his 3 month birthday, Carter received his first fever. Yuck! And, I just feel horrible about it. All morning he was cranky and clingy and I was just getting annoyed. He wouldn't go down for a nap, wouldn't play with his toys and would whine anytime I put him down. Finally, I decided we were going to go for a car ride so he would fall asleep. As I went to get him ready, I noticed he was really warm and sweating. Checked him temp. and yep...101.0...poor guy. After his first sick trip to the doctor, we are still playing the waiting game to see what happens. Luckily, his lungs are clear and no ear infection.
I tried to get a cute 3 month pic, but he wasn't having it this morning. So...here is one from yesterday with his new outfit on! Oh yeah..3 month stats from the doctor today: 17 lbs. 7 oz and 26 inches long (big boy!!!)
But, in the last month, he has really learned to love this time of night. He especially loves bubbles and relaxing in his robe and slippers after drying off.
Carter turned 2 months old yesterday. Last I weighed him he was 14lbs.! The boy likes to eat. Tomorrow we take him in for his check-up and vaccines. Poor little guy. Pray that he isn't in too much pain after those darn shots. 
As I spend each day with him, I am reminded by how quickly my maternity leave is passing by. I am dreading going back to work. I love my job, I love what I do, but I can't stand the thought of missing each little smile. Somehow, I know I'll make it work, thousands of working moms do. In the meantime, I will savor each little smile, coo, burp, giggle and cry.

Such a happy baby!!! I love this picture.

Carter's 1 month birthday. I think he got a little tired of me taking pictures all day. 
Carter all cozied up in his sleep gown. Matt hates these things...he said no son of his should ever wear a dress! (I still put them on at night and yes, Matt still complains!)
