Taking a few days off.

Alex apparently has come down with Bronchiolitis and is contagious. The daycare said they would take him since he has no fever, but would prefer we keep him home. No problem for me!! I am taking off three days and then getting off early on Thursday to take him to his well-baby appointment. (I hope he is well enough by Thursday.)

I did not complain at all about having to stay home with him. I am enjoying getting my house cleaned, making dinner and just being with Alex.

We even took Roman for a walk today! These are getting fewer and farther between since his arthritis is getting worse. As soon as we stepped out the door a hyper sled-type dog (still a puppy) bolts up to us and startles the cackles up on Roman. The dog had only a Rabies tag, so I let her walk with us around the block. Roman eventually realized this dog was harmless to us and calmed down. I tried to look for open gates where she might have run out, but found only one, and the owner had never seen her. She was so sweet. I tried calling the Banfield number on the tag, but no one answered. I figured the only way to find out whose she was was to take her in to get scanned at the vet. Well, by the time I decided to try, she had run off. I guess that was a good thing. Maybe she will find her way back home.

On a side note. . . our pediatrician is starting Chemo this week for breast cancer. Please keep her in your prayers. I couldn't even begin to think about what she is going through-or how she is still working during this terribly emotional time.

I know I need to post more current pictures, so will try to get some up soon.
