rough few days

saturday. rough day. high fever. rob remembered that last time this happened it was due to teething. E is gumming and making unusual hand mouth guestures, so rob is probably right and ely will have 5 new teeth tomorrow. all my family is together at a reunion today. sad we're not there, because i know they are having an awesome time. E sleeping a lot today and hot to touch. he isn't eating well or nursing as much as usual. nice to have him snuggle and read lots of books, but not nice that he is sad. hopefully will pass soon. glad it happened on a weekend when we could be here for him.

update Sunday AM. the fever has passed. i hope it won't return. he is nursing better. still lots of putting his hands in his mouth and drooling. poor guy. rob's working all weekend to meet monday deadline. midnight walks when E cant sleep. jolene is a good girl to go with us.
monday. good morning, but fever back after noon. sleeping a lot. resistant to drinking. i try to force tylenol and he throws up. his first tastes of popsicle and apple juice.
tuesday. rob is home with him.
