I took Paige to the Dr. today because what we thought was ring worm still hadn't cleared up yet. However, Doc. said she was pretty sure that it was not ringworm. She said it looked like Eczema (An itchy red skin rash) So she prescribed her some cream to use 3 times a day and we are suppose to use Vaseline between those applications to keep it good and moist. She said it isn't anything to worry about and is very common. So that was a relief!
I also had my MRI done after Paige's appointment. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be! It was like being put into a funky tanning bed for 30 minutes and hearing really loud beeping noises, at one point I thought I was in a casino! The last 10 minutes were the worse, I thought it was going very fast and then the tech said he had 2 more tests to run and that it would take 10 more minutes. Those 10 minutes seemed like forever!
Tomorrow night Paige is going to stay the night at Grandma Peg & Grandpa Stubby's house, along with her cousin Alex. I'm sure the two of them will keep Grandma & Grandpa on their toes. Rod & I get to have date night, so I think we are planning on heading to Bloomington for the evening. It will be nice to have an evening to ourselves, even though I'm sure Paige will be the main topic of conversation!
Saturday night Rod is going to play cards in Lexington, but that's pretty much all we have planned for this weekend.

Not a very productive weekend
Friday night we went out to the Sportsman's Club to help get everything ready for the annual game feed on Saturday. Paige loved running around the big open space and playing with her cousin Alex. Well I can't say that I really helped, I just watched mostly. They had enough help.
Saturday Rod spent the whole day out at the Sportsman's club, since he is vice president I guess it was his responsibility to attend the festivities. Paige and I spent most the day with Holly and Michelle. We went to Maurice's and Fashion Bug to do a little shopping. I had gift cards for both stores from my birthday, and they were burning a hole in my wallet. Paige was great in Fashion Bug, the store is big enough to take her stroller in so she just watched everyone. Maurice's was another story though! Since everything in the store is so tight I just carried her in, and it wasn't 2 seconds before she wanted down and started getting really fussy, so we didn't stay long there. I guess I'll have to make another trip with out her sometime.
Sunday was a pretty lazy day I didn't even get dressed until 5:30 pm when Stubby called to invite Paige & I over for pizza. I was glad because it meant I didn't have to cook, since Rod was working.
Paige's ring worm is starting to look a little better, but it is still there. If it's not gone by the end of this week, I guess I'll have to call the Dr. office again. But hopefully it will clear up. I go for my MRI this Thursday, I'm a little nervous about it because I've never had one before and everyone is telling me how awful it is gonna be.

Shopping
I went to my Doctors appointment yesterday afternoon. Doc said I have Scoliosis, and probably have had it since I was born, but just never new. Also my coccyx (tail bone) is slightly fractured (probably happened while I was trying to push Paige out) and mine curves more than other peoples (So she wasn't coming out). But he said he didn't believe that that was my major source of pain, so he scheduled me for a MRI on the 26th. Most likely I have a pinched nerve in one of my disks.
Rod stayed home sick last night from work. He didn't sound very good so I was glad Paige & I already had plans with Aunt Kari to go to Bloomington to do a little shopping. Kari needed to get some pants for work and I wanted to pick up Paige's pictures from Sears and go to Kohl's to spend my gift cards and buy me some new clothes. We went to Lane Bryant, where we both bought something and then to The Children's Place, where I got Paige 2 cute outfits for summer and her first pair of sun glasses, I'm sure she will keep them on her head!
Then we headed to the mall and picked up her pictures at Sears then we ate at the Pizza place in the mall. Paige scarfed down hers, she must have either been starving or she thought it was just super good! After we ate, we went to Kohl's and I found a few shirts for me and a new pair of shoes for work. Also I got Paige a couple outfits for summer there too.
It was a fun night and nice to get out of the house for the evening. I feel like I do the same thing every night, so it was a nice change of pace.

Another Year Older
It was a nice long weekend. On Valentine's Day, Rod & I went to see He's just not that into you at the Pontiac movie theater then we went to Delongs for dinner. It was a nice evening. Rod didn't care for the movie too much, but I thought it was descent. Holly & Michelle watched Paige for us and of course she had to wait for us to get home before she would go to sleep.
Sunday, I turned 29. Rod had to work that night, so I didn't see too much of him. Paige and I went to Holly's for cake and ice cream around 2 pm. Grandma and Grandpa K got me a balloon. Mom got me a necklace & matching earrings that were really pretty and also a gift card to Fashion Bug and Holly & Michelle got me a gift card to Maurice's. Yeah, now I get to go shopping! After we left there Paige & I headed over to Peg & Stubby's house. I had to help Peg draw names for the annual American Idol pool. I got Michael Sarver & Alexis Grace. Hopefully one of them will win me some big bucks! We ended up staying for supper and Cake (Spice, my favorite). After we ate Paige fell asleep in her highchair. I guess all the commotion wore her out!
Monday I noticed the spot on Paige's belly was not getting any better. I thought it was just dry skin and I had been putting lotion on it everyday, well I looked a little closer and I thought it might be ringworm, even though I have never actually seen ringworm. So I called her Doctor's office. The nurse said I didn't need to bring her in, but the way I described it , it did sound like ring worm to her. So she said just to apply a special cream available at any drug store, to it twice a day and hopefully it would go away. So we headed to Walmart and bought the cream and hopefully that will take care of it!
Later today, I have a Dr. Appt. to see what my back x-rays show. Hopefully nothing bad, but it still really hurts! :o(

New Pictures
We went to Sears last night and got Paige's 1 year pictures taken. She wasn't her usual smiley self, but I think they still turned out pretty good. Here are just a few, enjoy!

New car seats
Well, I had ordered 2 new car seats for Paige from walmart.com, and we got them over the weekend. Now Paige is sitting face forward like a big girl and seems to really enjoy it! Also, we started her on whole milk, phasing out the formula and trying to get her completely on table food. I'm hesitant on letting her feed herself, because I know she will make a complete mess! I guess I have to sometime though. She seems to love throwing her plate, so I have a feeling utensils will be the same way! Oh well, the sooner she learns the better I suppose!
