Baby Update

Amelia had her second illness to date this week. She came down with a fever and the fussies on Saturday which continued to Tuesday. She didn't have any other symptoms besides a high fever (as high as 104 degrees) at night. Her doc said that a virus was going around that was only displayed as a high fever, followed by a rash. The rash was on her forehead and looked like a spot of rosecea. I would have missed it completely if he hadn't mentioned it.

It wasn't too bad as baby illnesses go. Although, I have to admit a 104 temp is pretty scary in the middle of the night. Her whole body felt positively toasty: as if we had left her by the fire a bit too long.

Amelia loves to look at her reflection these days. She giggles when she sees herself. She also giggles when she sees Booda, Bella, Gracie, Zena or Blanquita. But the dogs really make her giggle. Its pretty funny to see. The dog walks by, and voila! A laughing baby.

Booda has figured out that Amelia is a like a slot machine but instead of money, she dispenses food. He waits patiently at her feet while she is in the high chair; she either drops her food or throws it. It is a win-win situation for the poochie.

Claire, we miss your blog!!! I know you're busy, but maybe you can throw us a bone. I live in the same city as you but still don't see enough of you or your beautiful babe.

You can prevent the blog spam by logging into blogger.com and under Settings click the Comments link. The 6th setting on that page is "Show word verification for comments" - turn that to Yes and Save Settings. Now people have to type in the word shown in an image which pretty much blocks automated comment spamming. It's not accessible for the sight impaired yet, but given the amount you're getting hit I'd do it anyway.
