Our sick little guy

It started off as a runny nose...I didn't worry. Then started the fevers of 103...I still didn't worry (don't freak, all my boys burn hot!). But when I tried to take his temp with the ear thermometer and he cried and pulled away, I worried. Into the car and off to Minute Clinic to confirm Nathan's first ear infection. Luckily he didn't seem to have any ear pain and was only miserable when the fever kicked in. He probably was pretty close to working through it himself (I tend to be conservative when it comes to antibiotics usually) but it was getting close to his birthday and I wanted my baby to feel good for his special day! He bounced right back and is feeling fine.
After running around CVS pharmacy and terrorizing the candy and toy aisles, I gave him his meds and told him to go lay down. He climbed on our bed and conked out.
Snuggling and watching a little TV
When it first started, he was my sleepy little snuggle bug. I hate seeing him sick, but he is so sweet and easy to take care of.
Feeling so much better! He helped me make some brownies
and what a good little helper he is!
