Stephen is sick : (

Stephen has been awake since 1:30 am. He hasn't been sleeping well for about a week. I noticed that the last bloody crown he has is half out and the new tooth underneath it is half out. Of course the last one couldn't come out on its own! The kids have a scheduled dentist appointment for this coming Friday so I am waiting to have it pulled. I keep telling him to pull it out but it isn't even loose : ( He also has another molar coming in.

And now he is sick with a fever. Poor little guy. His temp was 101.4 armpit (so it's actually 102.4). I hope he takes a nap because he won't take the oral medicine and he has to be really sick to give him the suppositories otherwise he won't let me put them in. The only relief he gets when he is sick but not sick enough for suppositories is when he sleeps.

Poor kiddo. I hope he feels better soon.

I tried to get him to take the quick dissolve acetamenophin and he got about a 1/4 of it in him (what little dissolved on his tongue every time I put it up to his mouth)before he started crying. I am probably going to have to give him the suppositories and hope he lets me and they stay in long enough to help him.

Hope you are all staying healthy! It seems like a lot of moms have been blogging about sick kids or being sick themselves lately.

Ugh! Hope he feels better and nobody else catches it!

I've been sick for almost 11 days (well, it will be 11 later today). Thankfully the kids have not caught whatever it is I have. (I really should NOT have said that!)
