I just can't seem to keep the smell of cat litter out of the house. YUCK! I'm sitting in the bathroom in the basement and that's all I can smell. Eww!
So much has happened with Shaun recently. I only hope I can remember it all. He just started singing this week; like really singing. All the songs I've been singing to him since he's been born are surfacing. He's even started requesting specific songs. The Wheels on the Bus he's been asking for for at least a month, and Shaun sang Twinkle Twinkle for Craig a couple of weeks ago. But within the past 3 or 4 days he's been singing ABC, Itsy Bitsy Spider, Chicka Boom, Bubbles, and just last night learned Row Your Boat and Hush Little Baby. I don't want him to grow anymore; he's perfect just the way he is. Once he gets bigger he'll become more independent and less of a little man. It's so sad that I can't control it!
Just a couple of days ago Craig and I started Shaun on a multi-vitamin and Enfapro, which is a formula designed for toddlers. Our plan is to add a couple scoops of powder to one cup of milk a day to try and boost Shaun's caloric intake. Last weekend he went 3 days without eating because he had a really high fever (40.2 C at it's highest; that's 104.5 F!). By Tuesday his fever was gone but he had a terrible sinus infection. No snot but very conjested. Maybe that's why he had the fever? That happened a few weeks ago too, and again just before he went to mum and dad's in March. The one a few weeks ago was from his MMR vaccine which is known to cause fever 7-10 days after immunization. It seems that when he gets a fever, it's not 100 or even 101. It's always close to 104. That's a little scary but now that we know his fevers are always high, I'll be less inclined to seriously worry in the future. It's just bad because when he does get these fevers he doesn't eat. If Shaun had some fat stores I wouldn't be concerned but since he's already so skinny going without food for even a day isn't good! He absolutely loves the formula though so hopefully it'll help him gain just a little bit of weight.
So I really want to start a scrapbook. I've seen stuff at Dollarama, Walmart and Zellers, along with the scrapbooking stores. Once we have some money I'll get started... *sigh*
Well, that's about it for updates. Shaun's in his big boy bed now and loves it. The transition was so easy! But putting all the baby stuff away was harder than I thought it was going to be. Oh well, I can only hope that we'll be dragging it all out again very soon!
