Sick Willie



As I mentioned in yesterday's post, Will got pretty sick over the weekend. This was the second time in his life he's been sick, so we knew a little better about how to handle it this time. It was a real bummer because we had big plans to have some friends over on Saturday to watch football and had to cancel. But it was for the best, he turned out to be pretty sick. He ran a fever all day Saturday and vomited several times. The first time, he was standing up at his cradle and projected right into it, all over some books and an Elmo puppet. Later, on separate occasions he puked on me twice and Erin at least once. We spent a lot of time getting cleaned up in the bath. Fortunately the clothes, carpet, and Elmo were all successfully cleaned.

It's not fun at all when your little guy is sick, but if you can get one positive out of the situation, he's most content to lay with you and be comforted like this (also here's a picture from the last time he was sick). No way he tolerates snuggling like this when he's well - too many other things to explore.
