quatro

have i told you lately how much i love being your mom?  you are so interested in life, it makes my heart smile.  i have a feeling you're going to be very independent and pretty curious.  crazy that at four months i can already tell, right?  four months... whoa. when did that happen? you've actually  been four months for quite a little while, but we have had some serious drama at our house lately- let me just fill you in.


so two weeks ago your dad and i went to a banquet and left you with nany and pop.  nanny called me and said what we thought was a mosquito bite was a full on rash of sorts on your cheek.  being the ocd/control freak/obsessive person i am, of course, we went straight to the doctor... on a saturday.  that doctor said it was some sort of a bacterial infection, gave us an anti-biotic and said it would clear up immediately.  well after three days when it was worse and i started calling you my leper baby, we went back to the doctor got new antibiotics which again, did nothing. we went to a different prima-care type place and got even more medicine and still it grew, you looked like a cheetah and i felt like a failure.  after visiting the dermatologist, we found out it was a cold sore the whole time.  this of course made me feel like a total dweeb.  gross. where on earth?  how? apparently this nasty virus is everywhere, all the time.  i still feel sad about it but the doctor PROMISES me that if (when) you get it again we can get you right medicine and it won't take your face prisoner again.  hhhhh.


i say all that to tell you i haven't taken any pictures of you with your oh-so-cute four month sign.  grr.  i also haven't taken hardly any pictures minus the ones on my iPhone which are just pathetic.  this whole being a working mom thing totally stinks.  but.... guess what!? are you ready?
