Weekend Woes

It started so promising. Colin got home right at dinner time so we headed out to grab a bite at a local pizza place. It was Carter's first pizza meal and it was a hit. He dove right in, sampling all the options.
Dinner was yummy but Carter had an even better time watching all the other kids run around and by waving/blowing kisses at all the adults.

After dinner was over, we checked out the game room. Carter had fun with all the sounds and colorful lights.He even tried his hand at a few of them. And met up with some other babies for some skee ball fun.

After all the fun, Carter was super sleepy so hit hit the sheets but was up moaning a few time throughout the night. In the morning he wasn't quite himself and we could tell he was sick. The little guy gave it a good go, but he ended up sleeping most of the morning.

At the same time, dad woke up with his chest hurting. His back had been bothering him for a few days but the chest was new so he decided to run by the Dr to get it checked out. Everything looked good except one spot on his EKG so they sent him down the road...to the ER. After several rounds of tests, everything checked out and dad was diagnosed with a slight inflammation around his heart (Pericarditis) related to a virus he had two weeks ago. With a script for ibuprofen, we headed home.

There grandmommy had been hanging out while the little guy slept. We ended up waking the little guy up around 5 (yes he had been sleeping from basically 8 the night before) and he still wasn't feeling too well which meant he was basically a little cuddle bug.

The little guy went back to bed pretty quick and dad hit the sack recovering as well.

Carter woke up Sunday back to 100% and had the appetite of a bear. He had about 5 normal meals Sunday and 6 snacks. He ate about every 1-1/2 hours. Dad took it easy Sunday and felt a little better by the end of the day.

Thankfully after the weekend, dad was back at half speed and Carter was back at full baby speed!
