Long week

Last Monday night we went and ate at the Old Spaghetti Factory. Definitely not as good as in the states... BUT I had been craving Mizithra cheese like no body's business and so we went. PS... does anyone know where I can buy it? I googled and someone said Sobey's. I will have to try because I am dying to have more and am not willing to drive to downtown Calgary and pay $12.75 for something I can easily make better at home. Anyway, while we were there my little piglet Nixon ate nonstop! He ate the inside of 4 pieces of bread, a jar of baby food, mum mums, little puffs, and shared Deakon's tortellini. We hurried home and put the kids to bed and I went to clean. Fast forward to 1:30 AM when we hear Nixon crying. Finally I went in to find his soother only to be greeted with the most awful puke ever. Woke Kyle and had him give Nix a bath while I did damage control in the bedroom. Nixon went right back to sleep until morning and woke up happy and normal. I blamed all the food the night before. But alas, the puking started again mid morning and he ended up sleeping 7+ hours during the day Tuesday and Wednesday (and sleeping through the night) between the puking and diarrhea. It was so awful and gross. He wouldn't wake up when he would do anything and just sleep in his own grossness. Poor baby. He couldn't/wouldn't keep anything down except small amounts of watered down formula all week. Yesterday was our first day of no puke and this morning he FINALLY ate real food (rice cereal and some applesauce) We have all felt so bad for our little baby. What a way to spend your birthday week. Wednesday night I took him to the clinic and he had lost 3 pounds. Probably more now. Anyway, we are doing good today and I am excited to watch Conference. Nixon having his 100th bath of the week. If he hears the bath turn on he immediately starts crying. Poor thing. When he was awake, he spent a lot of time doing this:

Last Saturday we FINALLY got a table for the basement. We also got a mini fridge. Woohoo. So so so so so so nice not to eat at the coffee table all week!

Before he got sick... he is going to be our little trouble maker:

My mom's neighbor, Rosalee made Nixon a hooded towel with his name on it when he was born. Deakon has loved it and begged to use it almost every bath so my mom asked Rosalee to make one for his birthday. He loves it even more because it has Spiderman . Thanks Mom and Rosalee!

Hope you are enjoying your weekend. I like we got like 6 inches of snow Friday night so we are trying not to be downers about the lack of spring.
