Colds, blood, and birthdays

So Evan's one year ck up isn't until tomorrow but I had to take him in
on Monday because he was all congested and waking up during the night.
He'd had a runny nose but his tooth was coming in so I figured that's
what it was. Ray and I turned up sick Saturday and Sunday and by
Sunday night we felt pretty crapy. We had sore throats and congestion
and my ears and Ray's teeth hurt. So we figured if he felt like us
that he needed to see the doctor. She said he had a cold and an ear
infection. He's on amoxicillin again for 10 days. He's still a little
congested but he slept through the night last night. We're almost over
our colds too. So everybody should be about back to normal by party
time.

Evan weighs 26 lbs now. He'll get measured tomorrow and more shots. He
usually does fine though, maybe a little sleepy afterwards.

He had a little accident on Sunday. Will was visiting and Evan was
walking along the coffe table in between him and Ray. He fell and
starting crying. Will picked him up and handed him to me. I hugged him
while he cried on my shoulder. He settled down a little and I pulled
him away from my shoulder. When I did we saw he had a bloody mouth. It
was coming out of both sides if his mouth. We figured he must have bit
his tounge. We cleaned him up and the blood stopped pretty quick. We
didn't see anything on his tongue so I said he might have bumped the
tooth coming in. I had the pediatrician take a look and she said
everything looked okay. Although he was cranky this afternoon after
his nap and I saw a little blood around his new tooth. It was gone
when I looked a little later. I don't know if it was because of the
other day or if it was from it moving down. I swear it was bigger
after the nap than before he went down.

Evan's birthday was good. Not too eventful. I sang to him at
breakfast. He looked at me like I was a little crazy. I gave him a
blueberry donut since it was his b-day. He seemed to enjoy it. My mom
and Ray's mom sang to him in the morning. And Ray sang to him and
played with him a little before he left for work. Ev and I spent the
rest of the day cleaning and grocery shopping. Ray came home and he
and Ev played and split another donut. Then I made him a cheese
quesedilla for dinner. Aunt Lindsay and cousin Piper sang to him
during dinner. He played a little and then went to bed. Dan and Sarah texted. Aunt Katie and
uncle Will called to wish him a happy birthday before we went to bed.
