Watch out watch out, theres a stomach bug about!

Haven't been able to up-date the blog lately as we've all had a stomach bug and cold. Steph and Curtis went to visit one of the nurseries on our shortlist last Tuesday and like every other time after such a visit, ended up with a cold the next day, but this time it also came with a stomach bug too, or so it seems. So here's a quick run down of the week we missed...

Tuesday - visited nusery

Wednesday - spent afternoon at Louise and Islas house. Isla is another wee friend from baby massage. A calm and fun afternoon was had by all, though sadly I didnt get round to taking photos again.

Thursday - Daddy's G's birthday. It was Gareths birthday but we all woke up ill and he had to stay off work. Steph hadnt even got him a present or card so it was lucky that Curtis made one himself (see pic). All Steph managed to make was a rather rubbish (but diary free) birthday cake. We intend to do a birthday re-run to make up for this later in the month.



Friday - all ill again. Curtis now has a bad cold and cough, the poops (getting through about 2 nappies per hour!!) aswell as the usual reflux and dry skin problems. Most of Stephs clothes, the bedsheets and Curtis's outfits have ended up in ther wash each day...mmmm..nice! and the fact that Curtis cant be laid flat too often due to his relfux problem means that nappy changing has to be done whilst in his bouncer chair...not easy! Nothing to photograph today, so here are some of

Saturday - still ill! Curtis has been waking every 2 hours for the past two nights and feeding more often since his losing so much fluid. Steph is feeling pretty tired from it and Gareth is feeling quite unwell, but as usual little man is quite cheerful about it all. Sadly have to cancel seeing Lisa and Jamie today as dont want to infect them but Nannan and Taid brave the house of germs to catch a stop over with the cutest guy in Glasgow.

Sunday - lovely sunny day, which we began by watching the womens 10k at the end fo our street. Curtis was mesmerised as he watched the ladies go by. We also saw Mark, Moira and the girls whilst there. Later Curtis played in the garden with Nanna and Taid.




Monday - G is back in work as he is recovered. Curtis is back to his normal pooping and feeding schedule but skin problem and reflux have worsened today...just when Steph thought it was all over.
