The Weekend, Finally
This is a picture from Mother's Day, 2011 when we went to the Atlanta Zoo. Sidney looks so cute and little there.
When I got home from work today, I noticed that Sidney was burning up. He was super lethargic and looked terrible. He stayed home with Roger again today. He's been sick since Wednesday. I changed clothes, packed the diaper back and headed to the urgent care center for the 2nd time in a month - the last time was on his birthday. Roger went to Cleo's daycare to watch her performance.
The nurse at the urgent care center took his temperature and he had a 103.8 fever. The nurse sort of chastised me and looked at me quizzically for not giving him any acetaminophen or ibuprofen but I wanted to be like, I wasn't home with him all day, my husband was. But I didn't say anything. They immediately gave Sidney some ibuprofen. Later, they gave him a purple popsicle and that perked him up a lot. He asked for and received a green popsicle but he only ate half of it. He was diagnosed with an ear infection in his right ear, an upper respiratory infection (aka a cold) and fever. He was doing much better by the time we left. The center e-filed a prescription for an antibiotic so it was ready when we drove there. I gave it to him when we got home around 7:30pm. At 8:30pm, I have him some ibuprofen. That should get him through the night and I will give him some more in the morning when he wakes up.
Cleo performed again tonight at her daycare's black history program. Roger said she did great. He tried but failed to video it so all the loyal followers of the life and times of Cleo Jayne Wynn will have to wait until the next big event for us to video and send it to you all. He was able to take one or two photos and this was the best one. Sorry it's so dark. Cleo is about to come on for her part of the presentation. She also performed in the ballet portion. I wish I could have seen that but she can reenact it for me and Sidney.
Tomorrow we are going to the Woodruff Arts Center Galleria for the 4th Annual Mad Hatter morning of crafts, music, performances and fun. We have never attended this event before. The Woodruff Arts Center is in the Midtown area of Atlanta and it's where ballets and fancy entertainment are usually held. I have been there only once to a play when we first moved here. The event is 10am-12pm. So afterward, we will head home for lunch and naps and I will head to the gym.
