Ramblings

Maddox still has a fever. The doctor feels it's just a virus. I wish there was medication to take for viruses. He did have his longest stretch without a fever last night though. He had ibuprofen at 5:00pm and didn't need anymore until 8:00 this morning. However, he was up at least 4-5 times last night (I can't keep track anymore). He is so thirsty at night. Right now he is just sitting on the couch feeling miserable.
Thank goodness Mason was moved into his room when he was. He has been able to sleep through all of this at night and sleep in. Yesterday Maddox was having a hard time napping, so I brought him into our bed and laid down with him.. We slept from 2:00 until almost 5!! whoops.
Mason was able to watch Kung Fu Panda twice yesterday because of that, so he was happy.
Today is a beautiful day outside, but I don't think I can bring the boys anywhere. Maddox gets so tired so easily right now. sigh. I feel like we are back in his newborn days again before we knew about the allergies. I could cry at night each time he wakes up.. because I feel so bad for him and because I am so tired.
I am going to be loading him up with vitamins. The Dr did say that Vitamin C and zinc are good for fighting viruses and I know vitamin D is as well. I really hope he can get through this soon. I miss our little pistol and I know he and Mason are going stir crazy. I wonder how much tv they can watch before their brains turn to mush?
This is a rambling post. Just goes to show how my brain is working these days...definitely not on full power :)
