Sleep does a body good...oh and Motrin.

Last night Asher was feeling a bit warm, but had multiple layers on and zonked out as soon as we got home, so we figured he was fine. When we picked him up from the babysitter today, she told us he felt warm all day and was a little clingy and tired. So, of course I wasn't going to be able to sleep not knowing if something was wrong. I called our pediatrician who has the world's greatest hours....open til 7 on weekdays and even open some hours on Saturday and Sunday! She got us right in and we found out our little man had a 103.5 degree fever! Goodness. Ears looked good, throat looked RED! Thankfully no strep, so the doctor sent us home with a good dose of Motrin and one tired baby boy...by the time I drove a mile down the road to our house this is what our little guy looked like...

After a good 2 hour nap, breaking the fever with a sweat, taking a bath, and a bottle the little guy was good as new! Check it out for yourself...


Whew, we all feel better!
Mark, Allyson, and Asher
