poor baby


Jack asked for "night-night" at lunch and I started to wonder if he was feeling alright. He woke up with a 102 temp and glazed over eyes. He just wanted to lay on the couch or be held. You know something must be really wrong when your 2 year old wants to be still. I set him up on the couch, not knowing how bad it was, I gave him a handful of Cars fruit snacks, hoping this would lighten his mood a little. I went to scrub potatoes for dinner and just as the thought to give him a big bowl crossed my mind, I heard a whimper and ran to the living room barely in time to catch his lunch. He lost it again later when we tried Tylenol. He asked for apples at dinner and had a few slices and kept that down. I held him on the couch after that and he was out cold by 6pm. I took him to bed and he slept until 10am. I checked his temp at 11pm and 3am while he was sleeping and it was down to 99, so was hopeful he would be a bit better. Glad I let him sleep, he seems to be much better. Happy to have my little chatterbox back with me. I seriously can count on 1 hand how many times my children have been even close to being this sick. We don't have a lot of practice with this around here. I attribute this to nursing him for 16 months, his awesome diet and the fact that he's not in daily daycare. We'll see how this changes with preschool. For now, I'm just hoping that GG doesn't get this or me for that matter since I have the workshop next week and no one else to cover it.
