This past week as been the LONGEST week ever! On Sunday, early afternoon, Asher started to get fussy and was really warm. Turns out it was the start of a fever. He had a fever of 101-102 for the next 3 days. We did take him to the doctor's on Monday, but they didn't see anything wrong with him, we just had to let it run its course. If he still had a fever on Thursday we would have had to take him back in but thankfully his fever broke Wednesday afternoon. The doctor also said that there could be several reasons for the fever and one may manifest itself later- runny nose, cough, rash, diarrhea, vomiting, sore throat. So Wednesday evening and Thursday we watched as not one, but all of those possible symptoms showed up! He has been such a sick little boy, which isn't fun for anyone. It's so sad to hear him try and 'talk' and only squeak because his throat is sore. And it's so sad when he won't eat anything because he doesn't feel good. And it's especially sad when he only sleeps in bed with mom and dad so only he gets to sleep. He is still fighting a cold, but is getting much better today. I guess since he has never been sick up to now, we should have expected something to happen but I will be so grateful when we have a healthy, happy baby boy again.

He's never been sick!?!??!! You lucky lucky thing! Babies get sick an average of 11 times in the first year! You seriously should be so grateful you've been so lucky! Emery was sick at less than a week old! Lucky, lucky, lucky!!! :)
I hate when babies get sick! I hope he is feeling better soon so all of you can get some rest!
I hope that he feels better!!! Poor Asher!
