The Sickies

Camden has been fairly healthy the past 10 months, however March is here and once again we face the threat of pneumonia. Right now he has Type A Influenza that started out as 4 days with a 102-104 temp, and then following that a horrible cough through the night time. The docotor feels that as long as he doesnt get the temperature back he should be fine, but in the case of another temperature spike we will have his lungs x-rayed to check for the always occuring pneumonia. He has missed school this whole week, but the upside to that is that Riley was able to attend school without Camden and she really loved it! I too now have a head cold/flu and hope that all the tea I am drinking is going to help me get better! Kevin was great yesterday, he picked up Riley at school and took her to lunch at Friendly's (her favorite place along with Pizza Hut) then ran errands with her and even took an hour off from work so he could take her to ballet class. I was home napping in the sunshine that shines through my sliding glass doors, while Camden was resting on the couch watching TV. Later that evening after dance, Kevin dropped Riley off and left for work around 5:00. Before Kevin was out of the driveway, Camden had fallen asleep on the Chaise Lounge in the playroom and was out for the night! What a nice low energy day!
