That's a first...

We've had our first cold & fever.

With all our company this weekend for the baby shower, our little man slept in our room last night. It turns out that he's noisy...or so I thought. There was a lot of grunting and groaning coming from the end of our bed. At 3:00, he woke...this hasn't happened in a while. He felt hot, but seemed to cool, particularily after being completely changed due to a "pee-thru".

But at our new wake up time (5:30) he felt hot again and when he had two bites of his bottle and fell back into a deep sleep, I pulled out the thermometer....100.1F. Not bad, but high enough for a little Tylenol.

Daddy started a cold a few days ago and even though he washed his hands lots and was careful about kissing Noah, he still contracted the cold. Now I understand all the noise...loud breathing, coughing, etc.

Noah has been in good spirits all day, regardless of the fever and cold. He has slept most of the day... on Mommy or Daddy. It turns out we softies. The fever is now gone and he's gone to bed.

The first our many germs to go through this house. I hope not to get it, 'cause I hate a summer cold.
