Little Okie Homestead

Poor little Rex has been sick all week. He had a fever for three days and now has a cough. This was the first day he had his fever. He curled up on the couch with his blanket and watched a movie and then another and another.  He's feeling much better now and has been fever free for 2 days. I just hope this cough doesn't last long. Of course because I was the main one taking care of him and exposed to the most germs I'm starting to feel sick too.  I'm going to start the neti pot today and I have been drinking my lemon and honey tea for a few days hoping it will help keep it from coming on but not sure if it will work. Also been trying to cook many meals with garlic and onions because they are suppose to kill off germs in  the body as well. Hopefully it will work and I won't get super sick.

Week letter C! Rex is so creative in many ways but this week he decided that it would be shown at the table. We had hamburgers made at home which means to fat for his mouth. He started to whine that he couldn't eat it and I just said 'Figure it out." He looked at his burger and decided the best way to eat it was piece by piece. He ate almost everything from it too this way. He also ate all his french fires too. He's so cute as he concentrated on what he was doing. He also will eat almost anything now as long as he has dip. He doesn't really care what kind of dip either. He decides what dip he wants by liking Mommy or Daddy more that day. Ketchup is a Mommy day ;) Ranch or mustard is a Daddy day.

So I didn't get to post week B last week but here it is. Rex was looking out his window at the beautiful Colorado snow! He's so cute!  Also our little bundle of joy that we got to see this last week! I'm so glad that all test came back with good news from our 12 week appointment!

I got a great idea from this lovely  blog  about doing a ABC photo book through out the year. Each week taking one photo that goes along with a letter. I have seen lots of great ideas for different photo blog ideas but all seem like to much work and something that I know I wouldn't be able to do. This one seems reasonable for our crazy life.  So to start off I have chose a great picture that I took of Rex and M playing together one day when he got home from work. Rex is so ADORABLE in this picture I just knew this was what I had to use! Plus I already know what I'm using for next week even though the picture hasn't been taken yet.  So here it is.......ADORABLE Rex playing with his Daddy! Oh I just can't get enough of this guy. Also as a little side note to how adorable he is...he kept posing for the camera once I got. He didn't care that Mommy was watching him play and wouldn't even look at me but soon as the camera was out he had to keep turning and...
