RSV and Birthdays

We had to cancel Carter's Birthday party bc he got RSV:(  The doctor did a breathing treatment which helped a lot and put him on about a million inhalers and an antibiotic.




Luckily Mimi was here.  Mommy has no more sick leave left and he was sick for most of the week. Poor Mimi had to watch Thomas the Train and Carter just roaming around moaning and coughing trying to get comfortable for her whole week.  She also got more snuggles from Carter than I think Niles and I have ever got.







Grandma and Gegaw still came up, despite the canceled party. He was a little better by then, but still cranky cranky. 
He terrorized all the animals while he was home for the week
 Grandma and Gegaw brought presents.  He didn't really get the present thing at Christmas, but something happened and now he does.

 Little People Farm and train were a big hit
 We decided to still do a small birthday dinner.  Lasagna and "Bunkey" Birthday Cake!


I am a little proud of the cake.  The monkey looked slightly evil, but Carter didn't seem to care.









After all the hard work of dinner he only ate one bite. And bc I made him.  He hasn't eaten much all week.


He didn't blow out the candle.  Just reached right over and put it out with his fingers.  I've always wanted to do that...

 He seemed to like the cake. 


 Can't you tell:)
 More presents...we ended up using them as meltdown blocks.  Anytime he would start to blow up, which was pretty often for the roided up 2 year old, we would open a present!  Great habit to start.  Once again I would like to state that all bad habits start when your kids are sick.   You (I) will give him whatever he wants.


We are trying to decide if we should reschedule the party.  We already have everything!  Either way he had a great birthday celebration...and I know still the actual birthday to come!

PS  My mom and I are both as sick as can be.  Thank you Carter.
