The Birthday Boy decided that we should spend the morning at the Sedgwick Co. Zoo for his bday. The crisp morning air was perfect and we spent a few hours exploring (and running from the bees).
Mitch opened his carefully wrapped present, with some assistance from Caligator.
That afternoon, Davis woke up and was running a high fever. Both of the boys had caught my cold last week and it hit them hard. Cal just got my cough, but Davis got my cough, wheezing, and apparently my fever. I took them to the doctor on Monday and Davis had the beginning stages of the enterovirus that is spreading throughout the Midwest. He also had a double ear infection, poor kid! Luckily, we have been able to manage and treat it at home through breathing treatments and antibiotics. Cal was starting to wheeze, so she prescribed him an inhaler to help knock out his cough. I'm happy to report that both boys have turned the corner and are on the mend. I'm so thankful for medicine and our doctors!
Since they've started feeling better, we visited Petsmart and this is the first time that Davis really noticed all the animals. He loved it!
His hands are blurry because he was banging on the glass.....poor birds.
Cal was using his binoculars that he made at school. He was "reading the map" and telling us where to go next.
I stayed home with our sick Davis on Friday, Monday, and then Mitch stayed with him for a few hours on Tuesday morning so I could run in and see all my students back-to-back. I took him to daycare on Wednesday and he did ok, but didn't eat much. He still doesn't have much of an appetite.
The weather was nice and cool (up until the last few days when it rose back into the 90's), so we played outside when the boys wanted.
Davis was helping clean up the chocolate pudding.
Cal got a new haircut this week! I put some gel in his hair and he looked so darn cute! Doesn't he look so much older?!
Davis has started tearing my Tupperware cabinet apart. He loves it!
On Wednesday afternoon, I could tell that Davis was feeling better because he was back to his ornery self!
