Knox's first fever.

I hate this.  It's no surprise that the winter is harsh on little ones, and we've been really lucky in the fact that he hasn't been sick yet! But it's hit.  We got home from Austin on Sunday and Stephen thought he felt warm.  Sure enough, 102.9.  Wowzers.  We gave him some medicine, and thankfully it didn't go up.  Unfortunately, the next morning it was up again so we went to the doctor.  He didn't have any other symptoms besides the fever, so she took some blood and found an elevated white blood count...infection.  So, we're on Amoxicillin and Motrin for the fever, and hoping he feels better soon!  Real soon.  He looks pitiful!

  2. Poor thing! The only way we can get Emily to take her medicine is in her bottle, just in case he spits it out through the dropper.
