Firsts...

Mason has experienced a lot of firsts thus far in his short life. Yesterday, was his first round at real pharmacy grade medicine. He's been coughing. You know, that gross, little kid, hack till you gag cough. I thought I would be a much more skiddish, and crazy mom- but seriously, I think I'm pretty chill. I figured it was a cough, he's a kid, it will pass. Well, three hours at Nana and Papa's proved to be too much coughing for them! They called me, I called the pediatrician, and Mason had an appointment an hour later. Nana took Mason in without me, I had a afternoon packed full of meetings.

Mason weighs a whopping 19.8 pounds, in the 14th percentile. Walking, crawling, and playing soccer (he loves to chase, and kick balls) is dropping some weight off him. That, and the only thing he likes to eat is crazy bread. Naughty kid. But, he's fine. Just a little scrawny :) His ears were clear. His lungs were clear. But he has all sorts of congestion. My baby is definitely my kid- it is either a virus or a sinus infection. Story of my life there! Good news, he loves the pink bubblegum amoxicillan they gave him just in case it was the infection. What kid doesn't like that stuff. I am hoping he feels better soon- less than 30 days till my tiny baby is one! (Though, he's not so tiny anymore!)

PS- I have an unaffiliated love for Target. Yes I worked for their pharmacy. Yes we had the coolest team on the planet. No I didn't even fill at my old store. But, being a mom, I adore their liquid suspension bottles. It makes medicine a breeze. Totally awesome. Fill there. For real.
