Poor little Max spiked a 102° fever last night. Fortunately it came after all of the holiday festivities were over and he had opened all his gifts from Christmas Eve and Day. I hate to see him so under the weather though. Today he's still warm and not up to par...but doesn't seem to be too miserable. Actually, he went down for a nap around 1pm and is still sleeping (at 5pm). I've checked on him periodically and seen him moving around or rolling over, but he seems content to be up there either resting or sleeping. I suppose it's the best thing for him...so I'm letting him sleep. I called the pediatricians office and the nurse told me just to keep an eye on him and if he gets a fever over 102°, starts not eating or sleeping well, or his chest gets really congested to bring him in. Right now he's warm, has a runny nose, and has a cough...but will eat a little at a time. Hopefully this good rest will help to get rid of this icky bug.
Besides getting sick...we've really had a wonderful holiday!
Uncle Rob (Brad's brother) arrived around noon on Xmas eve and we spent the day with him.
Then Christmas Eve we went to my parents for dinner and opened what seemed like endless presents. Then Christmas morning we opened our private Santa/Family presents and then Grandma Donna and Grandpa Jim came to spend the day/night with us. Brad, Mike, Max and I slipped away for a few hours to spend time w/ the Bellows side of the family at Auntie Mikey and Uncle Daves...and then came back to celebrate more with Brad's side of the family. My parents came over for dessert a little later that evening.
This morning Donna and Jim drove back home and the boys (Brad, Mike, and Rob) went skiing. Max and I have just cuddled and rested today and I started trying to reorganize the house while Max has been sleeping.
Anyways...we've had a wonderful couple of days and really enjoyed all the family time!! The slideshow above is just a little snapshot of our Christmas eve and day! Enjoy!
