Symptoms? Tingly hands and feet and a sore throat. Cure? Ice Cream!
Avery's been in a funk the last few days, which seemed to be peak yesterday afternoon. To avoid a weekend emergency doc's call, we took him in to Colleen, our fav at the pediatrician's office. Apparently, it turns out that he DOES have a virus. It's called hand-foot-mouth disease . Colleen said he probably got it at the Playgroup visit on Monday. This all reminds us that we might wait on the playgroup for a while. The bad news is, it lasts a week, and we're only halfway through it. Last night's schedule was-7pm sleep, 9pm wake up, 12 midnight come to our bed, 2am sit up and say, "Baa Baa", 3am wake up for Ibuprofen, restless until 4:30 and then awake at 7am. Needless to say, we are both exhausted (Walker is sleeping now, I got some in this AM). The good news is that it just runs its course, no antibiotics. Aside from having tingly hands and feet, he also has a sore throat. This means ice cream! Colleen advocated giving him popsicles, jello,...
We heart NY
Avery had a great time at Nan and Popi's. He didn't sleep all that well, so we hope Nan can get some good sleep tonight! Sleep aside, we were told that he did great. He was very flexible, loved all the attention he got, and woke up for the day very happy. Thank you to nan and popi for giving us a night away! Avery's walking so well these days. He's also starting to get a little more confident climbing up on furniture to perch himself in a cross legged position, satisfied with his new skills. Here, he's modeling his new NYC tee.
Sleeping at Nan and Popi's!
Avery will have his first sleep over tomorrow night. Walker and I are going to a wedding in NYC (7/7/07 is supposed to be a very popular date to wed), and Avery will stay with his nan and popi. His bags are packed with his toothbrush, Ibuprofen (just in case), his pjs, a few changes of clothes, SPF 50 sunscreen, a hat, his "Dumptrucks and Diggers" book, a few matchbox cars, some cookies...are we forgetting anything? Maybe he'll help clean up while he is there, as he was doing in this picture taken a few weeks ago. I hope he sleeps well!
