My kid is a petri dish...

It's been a while since I've posted.  I've been busy, as this post will detail.

We can't seem to win the healthy battle.  Otter is CONSTANTLY sick.  Seriously.  We made it 6 days with out a cold this time. I should buy stock in my pediatrician's office. I've had mini meltdowns in their office about how I feel like this is all my fault and how can I can I fix this.  Truth is, Otter is a "daycare kid" and is going to get sick.  Sure, he seems to catch everything. But, we'll get there.  But there are days where I feel like he's a petri dish and all the germs are testing out their skills on his immune system. 

However, when the cutie is sick, I get a lot of snuggles.  Sometimes they are whiny snuggles, but snuggles all the same.  Some of my favorite things to do when he's not feeling amazing are to throw a fresh towel and his most comfortable pair of jammies in the dryer.  Then we hit the bath.  Once bath time is over, which ever parent that isn't chaperoning bath time brings in the warm snuggly towel and jammies and we dry off and get in the jammies immediately and then head to mommy and daddy's bed with snack and a sippy.  We don't leave the bed unless he wants to.  I love it.

Anyways, in my attempt to keep Otter healthy I've added yet another type of wipe to our house (Huggies for the bottom, Boogie Wipes for the nose): Johnson's hand and face wipes.  Washing our hands, currently, is more like a splash fest and exploration of everything he can reach- soap, toothbrushes, toothpaste, medicine cabinet. So, I'm hoping these alcohol free wipes will help out a bit. Wish us luck.

Oh, I think I hear Otter up for his nap.  That's all for now. I hope you are making memories!
