My Sick Pooh-bear

My pooh bear has been feeling awful for the past week. It makes me so sad! Last week, I hadn't gotten to Landon's laundry, and he had run out of pj's to wear! The kiddo has been growing like a little weed, and he doesn't have many that fit him now! I always put him in pj's to go to bed because it gets pretty chilly in our house at night. Well, I tried to dress him warmly.. onesie, pants and socks, but my little booger kicked off his socks AND his blanket during the night. When he woke up, he was snotty and coughing, and I felt like an awful mommy!

I defintely have what I call the "Guilty-Mom Complex." You mommies out there probably know what I'm talking about! It's like, from the moment you find out you're expecting, you feel guilty about everything! Guilty about that coke you devoured while you're pregnant, or passing up the veggies for the two servings of chocolate cake, or as soon as baby comes... guilty about that gassy tummy, or stuffy nose. I feel so responsible for everything that happens to my little man. Maybe one day it'll get easier, but I really doubt it!

So anyway, Landon's been sniffing for the past 4 days, but that seemed to be about it. I figured he'd get over it pretty soon. Well yesterday, he added a cough and yucky throat to that too. He sounds really hoarse and can barely make those loud squeaky noises that he LOVES to make lately. (It's super cute! He sounds a little like two cats fighting when he talk to himself!) So now I feel bad about not taking him to the doctor sooner. He looks and sounds absolutely awful, and it breaks my heart! The worst thing in the world is to watch your baby suffer!!!! I've been giving him some medicine, and he's been a little better. We have a doctor's appt. scheduled for tomorrow morning, so I hope it's just a little cold and he'll be fine. I want my happy, healthy baby back ASAP!

Lately, I've also been feeling my crafty side come out! I've found all of these amazing DIY projects on pinterest.com, and I've been obessed with doing some of them!!! I've also found some really great recipes that I've tried on there also. My first crafty project was a paper wreath, made from a foam wreath, and paper from a dollar store chapter book. It was SO. MUCH. FUN! I love getting those creative juices flowing and completing something!

So here is the picture that I found to make:

So cute right?! And here is my creation!

Pretty cool huh?! It was the perfect addition to my dining room. I had been looking for something to put there for FOREVER! I have soooo many more crafts that I'm ready to tackle! Can't wait!
