The Hillian Collection

It happened. As soon as I let my over-protective guard down and decided to go to Tallahassee to celebrate my brother Josh turning 17, my baby got sick. There's an epidemic going around Tallahassee, so on Sunday morning, my mom, Sammy and I stayed home due to illness. Sean finally succumbed to it on Tuesday night.

I am thankful that this was a very gentle way to break me into caring for a sick child. Sammy's nose never go so congested that he couldn't breathe, and the highest his fever got was 102.5º. The hardest part was just comforting my very, very sad baby. For about 36 hours, the pathetic poor guy constantly had a soft whine accompanying him everywhere.

We're all better now, so, parenting challenges, keep on coming!

Sammy is! We've been putting our poor little guy through the ringer this week. It all started out with his first ever diaper rash, followed by his first visible bruise on his chubby thigh and finished with his little fingers getting slammed by our sliding door. Our ped said his fingers didn't fracture, they'll just be tender and bruised for a little while. Poor, poor Sammy.
