Universe:100 Lindsey: 0

So far today:
  • I scratched up the side of my car and the house while pulling into the garage
  • Caden woke up from his lo-o-o-o-ong (that should have been a sign!) nap with a fever of 102 on THE DAY that I had to toss out 99% of the Motrin and Tylenol in the house out due to a recall (more on Caden's sickness later)
  • I burned a bagel in the toaster (it fell down and touched the heating element) and set the toaster on fire
  • Caden was quietly playing (again, that should have been a sign!) and when I found him, this is what he had done...

...pulled out every single wipe in the box. Nice. Good thing I took a picture!

  • I put Caden in his high chair and *thought* I had put the tray on securely. Nope. He gave it a shove and it went tumbling. Luckily he didn't - even though I had not buckled him in. That'll teach me.

Is it a full moon? Universe: 100 Lindsey: 0 I think I'll go back to bed now.

** I was able to salvage 1/4 of a bottle of Motrin. That seems to have helped a lot. He still has a fever, but it is only (a relative term now) 100. I called the doctor and they were unable to get me in today, but we have an appointment for tomorrow morning. They didn't think he really needed to be seen since he is eating, not totally lethargic, etc, but I ever so sweetly explained that we were having a big birthday party on Sat. and if I waited 48-72 hours as they suggested, he might still be feeling bad on Sat. They graciously gave me an appointment for tomorrow and said I could cancel it if his fever goes away. If you think about it, could you please pray for a speedy recovery for our little man? No one should be sick on their 1st birthday!
