Mia is 77 weeks today!


Current mood: sick

Happy Friday and Happy New Years Everyone! Despite the hard week this week has been, I did remember to write Mia's weekly update! Unfortunately, I am really sick now and so I don't think I can write to much.

The week started off fun and full of family celebrations. We celebrated Christmas Eve with the Pizano family, and Christmas with the Cardoso family. She was loaded down with tons of presents and had great time with all her cousins.

The rest of the week wasn't so great for us. Adrian brought home a cold from the post office and gave it to Mia. Both have been extremely sick all week long. I have been running around playing nurse and only today have I finally been over come by the cold. My throat hurts horribly bad and now my nose is starting to run... great.

Poor Mia has really felt horrible. She doesn't eat much, doesn't play much and cries constantly. She even had her first fever! It reached 101 but we got it back down to normal by the next morning. Despite all this horriblness, she did manage to do a first. She fed herself with a fork for the first time. She almost made it through the entire meal of egg! I was so proud of her. She likes feeding herself too, I think its because she feels like a big girl when she does!

Well thats about it. Most of the week has consisted of trying to make Mia feel better and cuddling her. Hopefully next week I will have more happy stories to share.. till then I need to lay down. My head is starting to pound now and my throat is showing no signs of letting up. Sigh... being sicks is awful!
