End of August

Alex in his puppy dog bath towel! He is so adorable. It has ears and a tale!

After bath last week we started letting Evan wear his "Big Boy" underwear until after story time to see if he could stay dry. I tried to catch a shot of him and you can see he was so excited he could not stop moving!

Thursday at lunch time daycare called to say Alex had a fever and that he needed to go home. He had a fever as high as 103 and was not very happy. Evan gives him a hug to comfort him, but he doesn't like it very much.

Friday I brought him into the clinic and she said that he had sores on his mouth and throat and he would likely get worse and could have the fever for a few days. Friday night he was refusing to drink and we feared we were going to have to take him into the ER to get some medicine to help his throat, so he could drink to avoid getting dehydrated.

He had a miraculous recovery on Saturday morning. He woke up with no fever and drank over a bottle of milk. He didn't quite have his appetite back, but at least he could drink without pain. As you can see he is a little tired slumped over in his Elmo chair. Today his appetite and spirit have returned. He was sad when Eric took him to get a hair cut..(he never likes that)! In that pickle picture you can see how badly he needed a trim!
