Illness Day Two

Well our night was good considering what was going on with Colin. He woke just before 3am and I gave him some Tylenol before settling him back into bed. He went back to sleep quickly and stayed asleep until 6:40am. Since he barely ate the day before I got up and nursed him before giving him his meds and putting him back to bed (he didn't want to stay awake!). He slept until about 8:30am. I brought him into bed with us after this, thinking he would snuggle and watch TV but he fell back to sleep for about 30 minutes in our bed.

Once he got up for the third time, he actually got down on the floor and played with his toys which was nice to see as last night he was feeling so badly he could hardly interact with us, let alone play.  He did have two more naps about 2-3 hours each and was ready for bed at his usual bedtime of 7:30pm. Although there was times during the day where you could tell he was sick he also had a lot of happy grins to share.

A happy note: Colin's new trick is to be on his knees in the bath tub, hands in the air and then fall down on to his hands, splashing himself and me. He crawls up and down the length of the bath tub doing this and laughing. Very funny to watch and I encouraged him in this activity tonight just because it was nice to see him happy.
