Maya's Haircut

We just returned from Utah last week and since I took over 300 pictures and it feels too overwhelming to start a "Utah Post", I thought I'd just add a few pictures from this week. Hopefully I will be able to post about our trip soon.

Maya mentioned on Saturday that she wanted to get her haircut and I was all for it because I am tired of brushing her tangles. We went to a cute little kid's salon and I think she liked the attention she received. After the haircut she got to put a piece of her hair and a special plastic card in a machine and a toy popped out for her.


Before








After

She loves it and so do we!

Josh has been sick on and off for the past week since we got home. The doctor's seem to think it's a viral infection and, even though he had a fever of 103.7 last night, couldn't really do anything for him. So we went home and he was just glued to me on the bed for a few hours. Nick played with Maya and when we checked his temperature again before bed it was up to 104.2! I felt so bad for the little guy. I called my friend from church who is a nurse (& always super helpful!) and she talked me through what we should do for the night. Nick and his friend, Travis, gave him a blessing and I know it helped him. He slept from 10pm - 6am and woke up feeling only slightly hot. After about an hour he started sweating really bad and finally he broke his fever. He hasn't had a fever all day but has been cranky, clingy, and slobbery - more teeth must be on the way!



Today I gave him a bowl of yogurt (dairy-free) and a spoon and he went crazy! He got quite a few bites into his mouth and was so happy to be eating on his own.

Maya's hair is adorable... I love that you actually get kiddy salons. LOL. How Fun! I hate fevers... Luke had a bad fever for almost 3 days after his 12 months shots... I could hardly sleep, because I kept going in to check on him because it wouldn't stop rising... I am glad Josh is better now!
