Yesterday, Drew woke up crying. He was complaining of being dizzy. We sat him down on the couch, gave him a drink, and took his temperature. Sure enough, he had a fever. We turned on treehouse and discussed what to do next.
We decided to see how he felt this afternoon, and let him just hang out on the couch for the morning. He literally just sat there the entire morning, and didn't move a muscle. He wouldn't drink or eat anything. We gave him tempra every 4 hours, and monitored his temperature. The tempra was keeping it under control, so I didn't worry too much.
At 3, Drew fell asleep on the couch. I took him up to his room, and he slept until 6. I brought him downstairs and by 6:30 he was asleep on the couch again....took him back up to his room and he slept until 8:30. At 8:30 he woke up screaming that his tummy hurt. We decided that it was because he was hungry and came downstairs for a snack. He had a couple of bites of cheerios and then couldn't eat anymore (sore throat). We watched a bit of treehouse and then he was back in bed at 10. The little monkey slept through the night (called for James at some point in the middle of the night, and asked him to sleep with him). They were up at 8. We took him to the doctor at 11, and she said it was just a cold (his throat didn't look too "scary" as she put it). We are to keep giving him tempra and to let him rest. When we got home, monkey pants asked for a nap. He slept from 12-3 and then asked to go to Nana's.
We headed up to nana's, and he was alot better up there. We layed low (or as low as we can be up there) and played inside and then headed outside and drove the vehicles. He's now in bed, and hopefully will be all better tomorrow.
