Oh 2010 is among us. And what a fun COLD way to start out the year. I have always been one that enjoys the cold. Never really turned the heater on much UNTIL THIS YEAR. This winter is starting out to be a very cold one, like Mountain Top cold. Which I enjoy when I am all decked out in my ski stuff skiing down a mountain. But not really enjoying it when I have to dress up for work and walk a distance to get to the building. Anyway I still keep the heater on but it is set very low, I don't want to freeze my baby Zibby!
Speaking of the baby Zibby, I had a very fun day with him on Sunday. I am pretty sure some insect bit him on the nose while he was outside that morning. Around 10am, we are heading over to my parents house and I look over at him and his left side of his face is swollen. I mean his eye was really fat and his left side of his mouth was fat. I was a little worried, but he was not acting like he felt bad. I got over to my parents house and they had allergy pills so we gave him one. We kept watching him and soon the swelling went to his nose, which WAS REALLY FUNNY TO SEE! His nose was BIG and he look a little like a pit bull with a huge nose. (Sad to say none of the pictures I tried to take turned out well so I do not have any photos of this experience.) But he was still eating and acting fine so we did not worry much. I watched him the rest of the day and the swelling went over to his right side of his face then he had bumps all the way down his back. So we gave him one more allergy pill and he slept for the rest of the day. Waking up on Monday just fine, no more swelling and by the afternoon he was back to his old self. Needless to say it was my first experience with a bug bite and my child. I now know why my mother laughs at me when I have a black eye and my face swells up. It is kind of funny looking.
Happy to say he is all better and we are doing great, just trying to stay warm in Lubbock. Hope you all are doing well with the start of the year. I am excited about 2010 I don't know why I just feel there will be a lot of fun to be had this year. I will keep you posted!!!
