tummy bug, colds and fever

Since the last post, Will and I got a tummy bug, then once done with that, shared another cold with Daddy.  Yesterday was his second round of immunizations, and with that came his first wee fever (still enough to call the on call Dr. to check in--a small fever is common with the shots, but Dr. wants to know regardless)--100.4.  So now Will has got another yucky medication taste to add to his sensory experience.  I can't tell which "flavor" bugs him more: the "banana" or the "grape."  I have tasted both, and they are nasty.

So in about another 10 minutes (2:35 a.m. right now), he'll get a little more "grape" stuff.  He seems to be resting comfortably--still eating on schedule--just taking deep mellow snoozes between feedings.

Maybe Raffi should update that song-- "when you wake up in the night time and you don't know what to do, you post your blog. tap tap tap tap, tap tap tap, tap tap. you post your blog." (everybody sing!)

Still, one smile from him is like a dose of wonderful tasting, gosh what a sweetie,  make your bad day all better medicine for me.
