Happy Mother's Day!





Happy Mother's Day to all the Moms out there, especially to Dylan's mom, Jennifer!

It was an interesting First Mother's Day for  us. Dylan woke up with a very fine rash over his face, neck, and torso front and back. A bit of a fever too, but other than that, he was in a good mood. But we called the advice nurse, as "Does he have a rash?" is always one of the question they ask us when we call in. Long story short, Dylan ended up having an allergic reaction to the Amoxicillin (sp?) antibiotic he was taking for his ear infection. So he got a new antibiotic, but by the afternoon his rash had gotten worse (at least worse-looking) and so another call. The advice nurse, after listening to my description and asking some questions, she reassured us he was doing OK and we ought to give the new meds 48 hours... Well, poor kid looks miserable with the rash, but he (mostly) acts fine.

The Mother's Day wall hanging was something Dylan did at his daycare. His daycare provider, Yolanda, is a very sweet, loving woman and she somehow got Dylan's hands in paint and made the hand impressions plus took the photo (and a bunch of others I'll scan and post too) of him to add to it. It is so wonderful and Jennifer just adores it and the thought behind it.

Hope you all had a great Mother's Day and one less 'exciting' than ours!
