Happy Thanksgiving from the Nash's

Turkey Trot

We did it !

On Saturday the 21st I completed my first 5k. It has been something that has been on my to do list for a long time. My dear friends Shannon and Jessica also ran with me. Well, Shannon ran all of it and me and Jessica walked/jogged. Either way we all finished. It was so cold and I was not really prepared. I only gave myself 3 weeks to get ready for it, and Charlotte was home sick for one of those weeks. Never-the-less I was determined to do it.

It isn't enough to just have a few toys out,she must empty the entire basket.

Here we go again

Poor thing is sick again. On Friday she had a fever which had gradually risen from 99.5 in the morning to 102.0 by evening. So off to the instacare we went where we were told she had a virus, and there was nothing we could do. Over the next few days her temperature really fluctuated anywhere from 100.00 to 103.2. Sunday her fever had broken, and has not had a fever since. I thought we were in the final stages of her being sick.

I spoke too soon.

Monday morning I noticed she had a few spots on her stomach. Just thinking it was some heat bumps and nothing more, we went to the gym as we do every morning. Well, by the time we got home she had a full blown rash on her torso and back, so off to Dr. Montgomerie's we went, and the verdict is.....Coxsackievirus. This is a form of hand, foot and mouth disease. Although she has no sore on her hands and feet, her throat is swollen with canker like sores. Poor thing. She has been extra fussy and clingy. She is constantly climbing me and I cannot go more than a feet from her with her crying. This should clear on its on in the next few days, but it seems we are on lock down here since she is contagious. Oops about going to the gym. I hope none of the kids there get sick.

and she's off...

I spy with my little eye....

Charlotte and her stinky stead

Charlotte - 8 Months

It really is unbelievable how fast the time has flown by. Charlotte is now 8 months and on her way to being independent. She is getting her first tooth, holding her bottle , she is crawling and climbing stair, she can calm herself without me most of the time. Just in the last week she has started to crawl, and already has had a few bruises on her head, but that does not seem to bother her any. She is interested in feeding herself whether it is with her bottle or trying to grab the spoon from my hand. She too is pulling herself up into standing position with the help of the sofa. I have always heard people say " they grow up so fast" and "the time just flies by" but I truly never believed them until I had a a baby of my own. Everyday she surprises us with new things she has learned. Just the other day we too noticed that her looks are changing. She is coming into her own and we could not be more proud. I am so lucky to have been able to stay home with her the last 8 months.

Ladybug Halloween

Halloween night was spent over at Grandma Jeanie's'. Charlotte got all dressed for for pictures. She was so done with having the wear her costume. We trick-or-treated at Grandmas and then we had dinner. On reason we did not go around the neighborhood was 1st It was a pretty chilly, and 2nd Steve and I did not want anymore candy. Earlier in the weeks Charlotte went trick-or-treating at Grandmas work so we had more than enough.
