Sick Baby :C

Poor Andrew woke up Saturday morning with a runny nose and fever of 101.8.
He officially has his second cold, just two weeks from his first birthday!
We talked to Dr. James about it today and she was impressed with his track record.
The fever has subsided but the boogers are in need of constant suctioning. We're using some saline in his nostrils to help it along.
In this photo after his first Jello experience, he was just tired and ready for bed.We went for a walk to the park around the corner Sunday. Using the lion push toy, Andrew walked more than halfway there!
Helping Mom sort through her coupon collection. Andrew got to play with the expired ones ;D

Oh yes, he had the chills too (after his bath Friday)....
He has been much better the past couple days, nearly fully recovered! The boogies have occurred only after eating and are less volumnous and now clear. I am like, geez, maybe next time I get a cold I'll try the nose bulb suction thing combined with saline! Lol!
Must note: suctioning aka torture time requires two people (Dad holds him arms back). The bulb doesn't actually "fill" with boogies rather its draws them out so plenty of warm, damp paper towels must be on hand to wipe up several times.
