Is spring really here?

Many people ask who Preston looks more like, but it is hard for me to determine. Although there are certain features that are distinct features of Josh and I.

I squint when I smile or when I am tired.

Josh's big toe is big. Hence, Preston has a hole in his pjs right where is big toe is. Cute huh?

The Red Iguana Mexican Restaurant in SLC makes the most AMAZING Moles that I have EVER tasted. Actually I have never tasted mole before going there, but I am obsessed with the flavor. I wonder if it is hard to make? But Mmmm it is so tasty. I go to sleep thinking about it and wake up excited to have the leftovers. So thanks to Red Iguana for making me love food that much more.

Preston's new trick is getting on his knees and into everything. Oh and can I say that the three naps is dwindling now that he can sit and pull himself up to look over his crib.

This is what I feel like today! I have such a yucky cold that makes me:

*FORGETFUL (I had to undo a vest I am knitting three times because I kept doing it wrong)

*WEAK (Preston feels more like 50 pounds than his normal 18 pounds)

*CONGESTED (I HATE colds)

*TIRED

I blame my head cold to Rigby's 30 mph bitter wind. I forgot how chilly it gets up north.

Today I am at work and only caring for one patient which means I have some free time. The problem is my free time is sadly missing a book! I am desperate for a book to read at this moment to make this 12 hour shift go by a little faster. To top off this boring day (which I am very happy to have boring days) I can't turn my head to the right. So annoying and hurtful. But I am trying to figure out if anyone has read any good books lately? Other than that my life is simply wonderful with Preston finally getting his first tooth!! Hurray!

Is it already window washing season?  Not for Preston silly, although he looks dang good in the clarity window's hat! 

Yesterday I lied Preston down for a nap and I went to check on him and there he was just sitting in his crib.  His tummy muscles are getting so strong and he can now sit up from a lying position. I am amazed!

QUESTION: Did I use the lay, lie, lied, lying correctly?  I am trying to remember from Rigby English the correct verbage.... and is verbage really a word?  Well, in my dictionary it is.

I am happy to see Preston's hair a bit shorter since his hair started to etch its way over his ears. Josh was more than happy to give his hair a bit of a cut.  Preston was a bit mortified of the clippers and just hung his head low to get away from it.  But it looks so much better. This is his SECOND haircut!! Oh and he LOVEs feeding himself.

Has it already been five years since I started my career as a nurse?  

Thank you Josh for buying me a light for my herbs. My basil is already starting to peak up through the dirt.

Preston got the flu!  It was so sad.  You would think I would remember from my Mexico pediatric rotation what to do with a sick baby. (That just brought me back to my Mexico days... cold showers, roosters, beans, pyramids) ANYWAY.. we called the nurse twice making sure we were doing everything for Preston.  I even set my alarm clock in the middle of the night to check on his temperature and make sure his breathing was "even and unlabored." 

He is feeling on the up side today thank goodness, but still wants to be held constantly.
