Update on Sick Day

Everett has done really well lately in learning to share with Hampton- in fact, today he shared his pink eye! Poor Hampton contracted Ev's pink eye in both eyes along with the virus/cold/flu stuff to follow. Now I have two sick babies. I knew later today Everett really was not feeling well (other than the fact that he told me) when I took them outside for a few minutes for some fresh air and he just laid in my lap and kept asking me to sing him "Rock-a-bye-baby." Another day at home tomorrow to rest and re cooperate. Praying for a night of full sleep.

Sick Day

Everett was sick yesterday and got progressively worse. Eric took him last night to the pediatrician's night clinic. Turns out he has an ear infection (explains the recurrent fever), pink eye in both eyes, and a cold. Treatment involves antibiotics and eyes drops. Even though he was sick this morning, it wasn't going to keep him down! Everett kept talking about his experience last night. He told me, "That was a good doctor. I opened my mouth and said ahhhh. He looked in my eyes. He looked in my ears." Thankfully Hampton hasn't gotten sick-yet.

Everett had fun this morning reading books, playing with PlayDoh, learning to cut with scissors, and pasting pictures from magazines on to construction paper.

He has to miss preschool this week and we missed MOPS this morning. But it has given that much more quality time together. Plus, I love how he just wants to snuggle.
