Steve came down with a really bad cold earlier this week, and it was only a matter of time before Owen and I got it. I'm doing my best to fight it; so far, I've just got this sore throat. Poor Owen is sick though, for the first time. He was sounding a little snotty and congested last night, so every time he woke up, I put him back down on his side after feeding him. He woke up at 5:30 and wouldn't eat or go back to sleep, so I walked around with him until he fell asleep. It seemed like it was painful for him to lie flat, so I propped some pillows up on my bed and let him sleep on me. Of course, he kept waking up and turning his head everywhere, so I've basically been up since 5:30, which kinda sucks.
I took his temperature when we got up at about 8, and it was 102.3, so he'll be going to the doctor today. I've given him some Tylenol, and right now, he's in his swing watching Baby Einstein. He's actually doing pretty well now, but I want to make sure he doesn't have an ear infection or anything. Poor little man :(.
