We're supposed to be pumpkin patching.
Instead, I’ve been up half the night with a stomach flu. Can I just say that dry heaving when you’re seven months pregnant is incredibly painful. I finally broke down and called my obgyn, and they are awesome about having doctors quickly return non-labor related phone calls. There’s already an anti nausea prescription that I can put on my wrist being prepared for me. Kicking...

Sickly. Normal?
Monday morning Kylie had her two year well-baby visit. She was scheduled for her Hep A vaccine, and after the pediatrician and I talked about it, I decided to get her a flu shot this year.
