Last week, Theo ran a fever off and on for a couple of days. Friday morning, he seemed fine. So did Dexter. But then two hours later, I received a text from our sitter saying that Dexter was puny and a few minutes later another one saying he had thrown up. And had a fever. Oh dear.
I left work and picked up the boys. Dexter was just a pathetic little blondie boy by the time I got there, sleeping on a pillow on the floor. How do they go downhill so fast?
We had to cancel some plans over the weekend but luckily we didn’t have anything out of town or have tickets purchased for anything. We certainly would not have been able to go. Dexter still had a fever Saturday and had started coughing. By Sunday, Theo’s cough and runny nose had worsened. I didn’t know a runny nose could be so severe….sounds like a minor symptom, but try telling a 2 year, 51 week old boy that. He cried every time his nose was running. He wanted us to wipe it. He cried every time we wiped it. This cycle repeated, ohhh, every 30 seconds. For the whole day. Poor kid’s face was raw!
So that’s our weekend recap. Here are a few pictures that I managed to snap on my camera and phone.
