Not an ear infection

well its not an ear infection ( BONUS) but he is teething and the vomiting may be a virus.. well to me that sounds like the dr couldnt be bothered to look further but hey its stopped now so i shouldnt be cranky . he is growing so much every day .. he now can hold my hand and walk.. his soo close to being unassisted while walking but im not going to rush it .. i find it hard enough with him not walking his sooo fast i thought id upload some pics of my scrapping today i know my page needs some improvement but hey ill work on it when i get my space im aslo going to upload my embarrasing space so i can get motivated for when my desk comes along to keep things neat and actually have space to scrapp in lmao well its 23 weeks til i get married EEEK i better get back to finnishing those invites.. but i have lost my motivation. its bery repetitive.. ive already changed the design of the thanks yous we where going to put cyrtal brads on them but it just looks terrible ao im going to leave them and use them for scrapping

today

well today we go to the dr and find out if aiden has an ear infection the last few days his has been grabbing his ears like crazy and yesterday was vomiting there is also excessive wax no matter how many times i clean them. so i hope it all goes well

stress of being a mum

well today im stressed to the max last night we had aidens drs appointment and the news isnt good . i was worried about the shape of his head and i was right . his head is in th 93rd percentile and we have to go back in 6 weeks and to a peadiatriction there is so much running through my head i dont know what i will do if there is something seriously wrong. i cant help but think is it my fault because i had to go back on medication during pregnancy because my body couldnt cope with being pregnant and being a mummy i dont know but today is NOT a good day. the rain thats pooring down is kinda suited its a dark gloomy day here to
