Jalen Had a Fever

Last Sunday afternoon, Jalen started to get fussy and he felt hot to the touch. We took his temperature and he was running a fever of about 102 degrees. The poor guy was fussy and didn't want to eat. The only way to sooth him was to cuddle and let him sleep with you.

I left him sleep on me while I read a book.

Later that same afternoon, we took a nap together. It was nice... On Sunday night, he woke up screaming so we let him sleep in our bed. He was still running a fever and he'd wake up every hour saying "juice". Daddy would give him juice then he'd go back to sleep. We kept him home from daycare on Monday and Daddy took care of Jalen.

Jalen knows how to play peek a boo by putting his hands over his eyes now.

He also knows to lay down with his blanket kind of like how they take naps at daycare. Anyway, his fever is gone now. We suspect that he's experiencing this because he's teething. He's drooling like crazy, more than normal. Today he did fine at daycare so I guess he's almost all better.
