We're sick. I don't know what this stomach bug is, but we're having trouble getting rid of it. Our whole family has been ill for about a week now with no sign of letting up. I'm sick of being sick! Addison told me yesterday that she's sick of it too.
This bug has (apparently) come from some friends of ours who've seen the same sort of lingering effects -- you're sick, then better for a day or two and then sick again...
I don't like it one bit.
Here's a list of Hale's current spoken word vocabulary. He knows more words than this, but these are the words he can say right now at almost 17 months.
Addi, baby, ball, Dad, Daddy, eggs, glasses, go-go, hi, juice, jump, Lambo, meow, Mommy, Mom-o, moo, Nanny, O's, outside, pee-pee, please, potatoes, puppy, roar, Ross, row-row-row, shoes, spish-splash, stars, tickle, tractor, trash, truck, tweet-tweet, uh-oh, waffle, Wal-mart, Wiley, yes
I think that's pretty good!
This is part of our first album of pictures of Addison.

Friday is usually my favorite day of the week, because it's the end of the work week for Kevin and we get to have a few days of fun and relaxation. Today is an exception...kind of....
I have been in some sort of weird phase of labor since Tuesday evening, and quite frankly, I'm a little tired of it! So while I am still very happy that it is Friday, I'm more looking forward to Monday when I go back to the doctor and find out what in the world is going on with this kid!
Does anyone have any suggestions for kicking this labor into full gear? Be warned: if you tell me to just be patient and let nature takes its course, you're putting yourself in danger of a severe lashing!!
Happy Birthday, Bud. We love ya!
