Sick Boy

Damari has an upper respiratory infection and has been running fever for the past two days. He's pitiful and it breaks my heart. He does pretty well as long as I keep Motrin in him. Our pedi recommended me give Damari a popsicle to increase his fluid intake, but you know me all I could think about was the sugar! So, on the way home this morning I stopped at Target to buy some of the plastic molds to make your own popsicles. I bought some fruit juice and made Damari his own special popsicles (I diluted the juice with water). After his nap this afternoon, I thought we'd try one to see if it'd help Damari feel better. He wasn't so sure what to think at first, but then he got the hang of it and loved it! In addition to a special treat, I'll be giving him these when he's sick and I think it may help with teething as well.


Isn't he just the cutest thing, even when sick?
