Illness struck the Hedding household last weekend. It started when Leon got a cold. Then, logically, it was my turn. We went out to a friend’s party on Friday evening, and Asher got a bit cranky so we went home and put him to bed. An hour later, I heard him coughing. Strange. He went back to sleep after that until about 3:00 in the morning when he decided to wake us up to tell us he’s got the cold, too.
So we laid low on Saturday and Sunday in hopes of getting a healthy baby again. Unfortunately for Asher, he was feeling better on Monday, but I had to take him to get his 16 week shots (British English = jabs). That set us back for a couple more days because our little man had sore legs and a fever.
The good news is I think we’re finally on the mend! The little guy handled it better than I thought he would. I think it must have been harder on me. :-P
He held out pretty long before getting his first illness. That’s a blessing. Good genes.
