Unfortunately this week Xavier and I caught the flu which we are still currently recuperating from still, Xavier has caught colds in the past but nothing like the one we recently had. In all honesty I felt like I had been hit with a shovel and I definitely looked like it just yesterday, Xavier has had the typical runny nose but this time he got a chesty cough which he has never had in the past. So off I went to the chemist only to find out the only thing you can do for babies this age is panadol/nurofen and some euky bear eucalyptus rub which I had been putting on his chest and on his feet with socks, I have been keeping Xavier hydrated with +H2Coco Pure Coconut Water . Warm showers with steam seemed to also help, as most of you know (the people who read all my blogs posts) Xavier doesn't usually day nap for very long and usually only has one sleep a day, well he has been so unwell that he has slept 3 times a day for about an hour each time, very unlike him. Thankfully that means I could get some rest in also so when he slept, so did I! I was also rocking the curly afro as suddenly my hormones have decided to give my ringlets and some new hair at the front, nobody tells you how much having a baby will effect your hair and for a hairdresser thats a pretty big deal, vain I know but I love my hair. Also after 9 months of large amounts of hair falling out here there and everywhere you think it would have stopped right? Well apparently it can take years!! So this has got me onto why not add to the clan then? If my hair is going to continue to fall out and my body have a continuos bloat that makes me look about 6 weeks pregnant (yep not even kidding!) I will admit I am getting clucky which I didn't think was possible until Xavier was at least 2 years old but those pregnancy jitters have crept in early! So we'll see how we go! So this week I have decided to share some photos of some the things we have gotten up to last week before we both got too unwell, Xavier loves music and I love the markets so I took him down to the markets to get some fresh fruit to eat and watch the puppet shows. We also got our cool new +freshly picked Moccasins that Xavier has sporting around all week and you'll also see a photo of Xavier and I below with Xavier in a sling. Yep! I sure did get a baby sling and became a baby wearer, I should have done it alot sooner and when the next baby does come along they will be all bundled in the sling also after all they grow up so quickly and become independent so why not keep them close until the day they decide they're too grown up to be cuddled 24/7.
