We're WELL again

Good heavens. One downside in daycare are the germs that come along with it.  And, let me tell you, once you get rid of something, you have a few weeks reprieve {if you're lucky} and then you get something else.  This time, it was a fever.

It started Saturday afternoon. It may have started before then because he was a little flushed all day but acting fine.  We took his temperature on Saturday afternoon and it was 102.7.  Sunday I pretty much alternated Tylenol and Motrin around the clock.  Sunday afternoon it got as high as 103.5.  I stayed home from work on Monday and we went to see Dr. S to confirm that it wasn't his ears or from the 1 year shots (MMR & Chicken Pox can cause delayed fever up to 2 weeks later- JOY).  He said he thought it was a virus with a sore throat and fever.  Monday afternoon his fever was back up to 102.  Tuesday, me and daddy split the day since he still had a fever.  His temp Tuesday afternoon did go up to 100.2 but went right back down on its own in less than an hour.  So, it was safe to go to school today. 

We did a lot of napping, a lot of sitting on the deck when it was shady or on the front porch when the sun was out back.  It was fun to be at home with my snuggly boy.  I will have to say though, it was exhausting!  It's a lot of work to be a stay at home mom!  CHEERS TO YOU GIRLS! 


But hey, it wasn't all bad.  Just the afternoons were sad (as pictured above)

This was lunch time on Monday!  Happy as a lark! 
That's my boy!!!

Time at home was nice but it was good to get back to work and school and ROUTINE today!  We THRIVE on routine here in the Farrar household! 

Here's to NO SICKNESS for a while!  We've got a BIG weekend coming up. Uncle Tyler is getting married to Jamey and we've ALL got to be healthy!  Please Lord, help us be healthy!
