It Worked!

After many attempts, I have managed to post a video of Rex from yesterday. He was playing in his jumperoo while I was flipping through a cookbook. One recipe I came across sounded disgusting so I made a face and said "blech" and he thought that was so funny. I kept doing it for him and he just kept laughing and laughing.



I still can't get any videos on Flickr. I had to drag out my old camera and take the video on it. When I shoot video with my new camera and my video camera, I can't seem to get them uploaded no matter what I try. Not that this one was easy either but at least I finally managed to get it uploaded here. I will continue to try getting videos on Flickr but we'll see.

We have been fairly busy lately and not well, hence the lack of posts. I had what the doctors think was shingles- it started about 2 weeks ago. Thursday morning I noticed a rash on my neck and face. It wasn't too bad but not so attractive either. I was really dizzy too. When I went to the doctor the next morning, I had a fever. She put me on one of the world's most expensive medications and it went away. Shingles on your face is one of the least likely places to get it and the worst place since it can cause complications with one's vision. My vision was not affected at all and I was glad to see the rash go. Not too much happened around here for a week and keeping up with Rex was about all I could manage. This past week, I have been trying to get caught up with my cleaning and chores. Yay. Now that I am, I finally have a few minutes to work on the blog.

We have a lot of family visiting during June and July and the first ones get here next Thursday. I need to get things ready for them and I need to take care of arrangements for Rex's first birthday next Saturday. I am still not having a party for him but I need to get him a few more presents and order a little birthday cake for him to destroy. He'll probably like the cake- he doesn't seem to like much else we give him though. We are trying to give him more food like we eat and not so much baby food but he does not want hardly any of it. Sweet things though usually do just fine for some reason...
