My poor baby has been throwing up and feverish all day.  Doc Daddy was here to take care of him though.  He&#8217;s normally a tough kid so when he comes to me with a face so sad I even got a fever.  He grabs my arm and tells me, &#8220;Daddy, I don&#8217;t feel good.&#8221;  I scooped him up and gave him a sure cure.  Snuggles.  After a few hours of that and a few naps in his favorite bed otherwise known as my lap, he was back up and running around.  I guess I was a little too relieved that he was feeling better and playing again because while we played a game we like to call Daddy Ball, I got hurt.  Daddy Ball consists of Aden trying to hit me with his Lightning McQueen Bat (yea the car from Cars) while I try to dodge in every way possible, giving us both a workout.  Everything was going fine and we were having fun until something happened in the Superbowl which distracted me just long enough for Aden to make me wish I&#8217;d worn a cup.  I instantly fall to the floor but Aden doesn&#8217;t let up with the bat and hits a homerun with my head while I&#8217;m still on my knees from his first at bat.  He hits me a few more times before he realizes that something is wrong.  And in a way only he can, he jumps on top of me, wraps his arms around me a whispers in my ear, &#8220;I love you daddy.&#8221;  The pain almost instantly subsides I smile and reply, &#8220;I love you too Aden.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>During Aden&#8217;s naps I had a chance to finally add a few things to the site:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>User Photos<\/strong> that you upload to your profile will appear whenever you comment or write on the blog<\/li>\n<li>A <strong>Random Blog Post<\/strong> section was added to the sidebar of the site<\/li>\n<li>A <strong>Music Page<\/strong> was added as a tab to the top of the site<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>We&#8217;ve added an amazing writer, Vanessa today and some of her work is already up with more on the way.
