Smelly Dog, Smelly Dog,

What are they feeding you....
poor Kevin is still outside and everyone misses him, Chasen saw him today and went nuts, wanting to get down and play with him.
We did decide to let him sleep in the dining room tonight :(

Today I took Chasen to the dr. exactly one week before his well baby check up because his entire body was covered in a weird rash.(He ALWAYS gets sick 1 week before his well baby check, and then I have to pay to take him twice)
Since the ear infection he has had a bad rash in his groin area that hasn't gotten any better. Today they found that he has a fungal infection down there and the other rash was related to the virus he had before and it should clear up in a week. His ears were clear and throat was good! I tried to get a pic of the rash but you can't really see it as well as you can in person.

"such attitude"

Chasen has changed so much this month.
Today, his second tooth came through,
He can walk while holding onto stuff(which gives me a mini heart attack each time)and daycare said he took one step alone today.

I predict we are walking by 11 months for sure...God help me!!!!!!

nothing is safe now!!! what will I do when he walks?!?!
Today he started something new, we were on the porch swing and I was holding him in my lap and he wanted down so he could crawl around but I wouldn't let go so he grabbed my hands to tare them off of him. So, I would move them, then put them back, and he would try to take them off again. It amazed me that he was smart enough to realize that I was the thing causing him to not go anywhere(before he would have just cried and squirmed) But it also broke my heart, this will just be the first of many times that he pushes his mama away :(
There are times when I want him to push me away, like at bed time.
He has been getting up at night and I have been starting the bad habit of putting him in bed with us because its so much easier.
Well, now he is used to it and likes it.
I read today that babies at this age start waking up in the middle of the night due to separation anxiety and that it is good for them to have a blankey or stuffed animal to comfort them so tonight when I rocked him to sleep we held onto a little doggy.
well, Im off to bed to.
If only I could snuggle with my doggy :( poor Kev.
