Saturday: happy birthday to me

 

We were going to go to the Iris Garden for my birthday, and in the morning it looked like that might still happen. But then when it came time for him to take a nap he just wouldn’t really sleep deeply and spent much of the day clutching to Carly. 

At one point he was up enough to Skype with my parents. Sort of. After that, his temperature was up around 39. We tried to take him to the doctor, but they closed at 1. 

After a couple more hours of him not doing much of anything, we found out from Derek that the doctor over at eMart is open longer hours on the weekend. We had given him Tylenol by this point, but the cough and throwing up were concerning. 

So we took a cab to eMart. By the time we got there the Tylenol had kicked in and he was having fun in the waiting room – particularly because they had Pororo playing on a couple screens. 

The diagnosis is a throat infection. He was doing quite well at this point and the weather was lovely, so we walked home. We stopped at the pink building for groceries and then got pho takeout for dinner. 

He was a bit better this evening, but unfortunately getting to sleep is really difficult for him. He finally went to sleep around 9:30, but woke up 45 minutes later. He is just now asleep again and hopefully he can get a good night’s sleep.

Feeling better and watching Pororo, but a crazy cough: 

Walking home: 

He doesn’t really show off his letter skills in these videos, but you can see his Pororo magnets:
