"Love is staying up all night with a sick child - or a healthy adult."

James was diagnosed with RSV, but he came through it better than we expected. He had a fever for 6 days, but it never went much over a hundred degrees. James still managed to smile, but not near as much as normal and we’re happy that we have our happy little guy back again. He’s even grinning taking his medicine.
We were nervous about getting together for my birthday with Baby Ben in case James was still contagious, but that didn’t stop some visitors from coming over or keep us from visiting Grandma and Grandpa Wolfe for a family dinner. We had a good time, and James spent some quality time with various grandparents. As you can see, James was pleased with the experience.
Ashlyn found cousin Heidi, and that of course led to a lot of laughing and running around the house. It also led to horsey rides and a fun game where they threw foam dominoes into the air. You know it’s a fun game when it takes longer to find the toys than it did to play with them.
So that’s about it this week, hopefully next week will be sickness-free as James continues to work on sitting and Ashlyn starts warming up her blogging skills. I sense an aggieashlyn.blogspot.com site coming to a web near you.1
