Boo-boo

Noah is sick again. He was clingy and sleepy this morning, which quickly moved into mega-crabbiness. After being up for two hours I finally put him down for a nap at 11AM. He alternated sleeping, nursing and cuddling with me for the next 2 hours, but didn't sleep very well.

At 1PM he wanted to get out of bed. I checked him temperature and it was 102.4. Poor kid. He kept crying and saying, "Ow, boo-boo!" but I couldn't get him to tell me anything specific. I assumed it was body aches. Almost an hour later I checked his temperature again and it was 104.8! YIKES!!! I called the nurse line and they said we should bring him in. I called Stan at work and he came right home. After he got here, we took his temp again and it was down to 102.9. We finally got him down for a nap and Stan decided to go back to work.

Noah woke up soon after Stan left and started crying again. Nonstop. For two hours. I called the nurse line again and they said even though his temperature was down we should bring him in because of the crying. The wait at urgent care was an hour and a half, so I called Stan and told him we would need to bring Noah in when he got home. I finally got Noah to sleep and he crashed until 6:30PM. He seemed a lot better so we decided not to bring him to Urgent Care. We're just going to hang in there and see what happens. It's 8:15 now and he's had spaghetti, some cheese, strawberries and blueberries.

Jeppa ran to the grocery store for us and got some pizzas at Papa Murphy's. It's good to have live in help. :]

So things are better now. Don't know if we'll be able to make the show tomorrow night at Illusion, but Noah is more important. I can take the disappointment.

All for now. Dinner should be ready soon. . .
