And once again... the Land of Sick Baby!

Poor little Gabe is sick again. Yesterday (Sunday) we noticed that he was running a little low grade fever. This was while we were still on our mountains trip. I gave him Tylenol and it helped some, but the fever would just keep going back up when it would wear off. When we got home around lunchtime, it had gone up to 101.7 so I tried Motirn instead. The motirn brought it down into the 99's but when the motrin wore off it would go back up again and it went all the way up to 104.1 yesterday evening. I took him to see the dr this morning and he couldn't find anything definite wrong with him. He said it was probably some kind of virus, maybe the flu, and that we should watch him closely and that the office would check on us in the morning. It's so scary having a sick little one - especially with such a high fever. Please send up some prayers that his fever will break soon and that he will be back to his jolly little self again.

On a brighter note, with the exception of the fever that started yesterday, we had a great time in the mountains this weekend. The weather was nice on Saturday; although it was a bit cool. We bundled baby Gabe up good and took a little .4 mile hike up to Anna Ruby Falls. It was really pretty and Gabe seemed to enjoy himself. It was a good opportunity for him to "people watch" which is one of his favorite things to do. Then we went into Helen for lunch and to stroll around on the streets. Helen is a little bavarian like village with lots of little shops and resturants. It's a neat little town and I think Gabe really enjoyed his first trip there. I do have some pictures but will have to post them later since my morning was a little disrupted by a sick baby. Stay tuned...
